About The Position

At NerdWallet, we’re on a mission to bring clarity to all of life’s financial decisions and every great mission needs a team of exceptional Nerds. We’ve built an inclusive, flexible, and candid culture where you’re empowered to grow, take smart risks, and be unapologetically yourself (cape optional). Whether remote or in-office, we support how you thrive best. We invest in your well-being, development, and ability to make an impact because when one Nerd levels up, we all do. As a Senior Product Manager (Credit Cards), you’ll own and evolve digital experiences that help consumers shop for, compare, and choose the right credit card for their needs. You’ll have the opportunity to shape high-impact surfaces and tools used by millions of consumers to make better financial decisions, while directly contributing to NerdWallet’s business goals. This role blends product strategy with hands-on execution. You’ll identify consumer needs and opportunities, turn insights into product solutions, and partner across data, engineering, design, content, and marketing to bring those experiences to life. You’ll work closely with Performance Marketing to create and optimize paid-channel experiences, while also supporting our organic experiences and the tools that surface relevant credit card offers. We’re also looking for a product builder who embraces new ways of working. You’ll use AI as part of your day-to-day product development process to accelerate discovery, analysis, prototyping, validation, and delivery. You’ll have room to experiment, create new experiences, and turn effective workflows into reusable tools that help the broader team move faster and increase its impact. This role will report to the Director Product Management for the Cards and Wealth teams.
