About The Position

Hammer Media is the digital media powerhouse behind Caleb Hammer and the hit show Financial Audit. In just three years, we’ve built one of the internet's fastest-growing brands, amassing over 3.5+ million subscribers and over 4 billion views. Our mission scales through Dollarwise, a financial health platform that transforms viral content into practical tools. By bridging the gap between entertainment and FinTech, we provide personalized resources that empower users to master their habits and take control of their financial future. Join us as we build the ultimate ecosystem for financial literacy and long-term growth. Millions of people watch Caleb tell someone their spending is out of control. The next question is always the same: okay, so what do I actually do? The Caleb Hammer website is where we answer that — and it needs an owner. We're looking for an Associate Product Manager to own calebhammer.com as a portfolio: the courses, the financial tools, the content, and everything in between. You'll be a part of the decision making in what gets built next, what gets cut, and where we invest. This is a wear-a-few-hats role by design. Some weeks you're writing tickets and QA'ing a release. Others you're writing launch copy, digging into funnel data, or on a call with a potential partner. We want someone who sees a gap and closes it instead of waiting for it to be assigned. A note on level: this is intentionally an early-career role. We're not looking for a senior or experienced PM to slot into a defined function. We're looking for someone hungry, in their first few years, who wants to grow into ownership of a real product portfolio and is genuinely excited to work outside their job description to get there. If you want a narrow, well-scoped senior role, this isn't it.

Requirements

1–3 years of experience in product management, product operations, product marketing, growth, or an adjacent role where you shipped something real
A self-starter in the actual sense — you spot the thing that needs doing and do it without being asked twice
A clear writer. You can take a messy idea and turn it into a one-pager anyone in the company can act on
Comfortable with data — you can pull your own numbers, build a funnel, and defend a decision with evidence
Comfortable being externally facing: you can get on a call with a partner and represent us well
Organized by default, with real project management chops (Linear, ClickUp, Asana, or equivalent)
Direct communicator who can give and take blunt feedback without taking it personally
Genuinely excited to wear multiple hats and grow into the role rather than arrive fully formed
Bought into the mission: you actually care about people getting out of debt

Nice To Haves

Experience with educational coursework, e-learning, EdTech, or curriculum development
Product marketing experience — launches, positioning, lifecycle campaigns
Partnerships, BD, or affiliate program experience
Background in personal finance, fintech, or a creator-led business
Experience with community-driven or membership products
You've taken a stack of online courses yourself and have strong opinions about which ones were worth it

Design and launch features and programs that get our audience participating, not just watching
Wear the product marketing hat
Support go-to-market for launches: positioning, lifecycle emails, landing pages, and in-app messaging
