We’re fixing the retirement savings system - come join us. 


We’re on a mission to make saving for retirement easy. Our first product helps people digitally locate their old 401k accounts and consolidate them into a new account at any financial institution - without the paperwork, phone calls, and faxes of the past. In doing so, we’re automating the process by which $500 billion in 401k assets is transferred each year. We’re also making sure that the 15 million 401k account holders who change jobs annually don’t do the wrong thing with their assets - like cash them out, leave them behind, or pay excessive fees that erode their savings over time.


But that’s not where we’re stopping. We believe all Americans should retire with enough money for a life of dignity. Over time, we intend to eliminate all of the friction & fees embedded in the retirement savings system that stops them from doing so. 


We’ve raised $15mm from leading venture capital investors including Canapi Ventures, Greycroft, RRE, Bling Capital, and Walkabout Ventures.


The Opportunity


We’re looking for a Head of Product to build and lead a world-class Product team. You’ll work closely with our CEO and CTO as we work to simplify the process of saving for retirement. You’ll develop and execute on a Product Roadmap that’s based on data and user research. We’re an entrepreneurial team and we’re moving quickly - as an early employee you’ll have a big impact on our success and participate meaningfully in the upside. We expect your responsibilities will grow significantly as we do.

What You’ll Do

  • Own the product experience on our core rollover platform from Day 1 and lead the work on new features.
  • Put in place best practices for our product organization that align with our customer-obsessed, analytically rigorous, and data-driven philosophy.
  • Work with our leadership team on our broader product roadmap as we expand our offerings to consumers.
  • Drive the execution of product work from end-to-end, partnering with our engineering team to get features shipped. 
  • Recruit and manage a team of talented PMs and Designers.
  • Move quickly to understand customer pain points, come up with experiments to test potential solutions, and then iterate on our product.

Who You Are

  • You’re intellectually honest - you don’t need to always have the right answers. But you need to ask the right questions, use data, and be open to healthy debate.
  • You move fast and understand trade-offs - you get things done thoughtfully and are comfortable being accountable for your work.
  • You’re driven by mission - you believe, like we do, that it’s possible to make money and do good at the same time.
  • You’re ambitious and optimistic - you’re keen to tackle big challenges, bit by bit.
  • You’re persistent - you have grit and view setbacks as a learning opportunity.
  • You want to have fun - you want to celebrate the wins with us.
  • You can wear many hats - you’re a team player willing to chip in across the business.
  • You’re an exceptional performer - you have a track record of high achievement.

Required Skills

  • 8+ years of product experience, with a track record of building and scaling complex consumer-facing products.
  • Experience with recruiting, leading, and managing a high-performing product team.
  • Ability to balance high-level strategy with hands-on execution when necessary. 
  • An effective communicator who can clearly articulate decisions and mobilize support for key initiatives.
  • A strong analytical orientation with a focus on data-driven decision making.
  • Bonus points: experience as an early Product hire at a venture-backed company.

We’re an equal opportunity employer and value diversity in the workplace. We’re assembling a well-rounded team of exceptional performers to help us build a great company - for the long-term. Come join us.
