Altruist•Los Angeles, CA

About The Position

Altruist is transforming how financial advisors deliver wealth management. We’re building a new generation of credit and liquidity tools that empower advisors to offer flexible, tax-efficient access to capital for their clients. We’re looking for a Staff Product Manager to lead strategy and execution across our Credit & Lending platform. You’ll define the roadmap for liquidity products like margin, securities-backed lines of credit (SBLOC), and fully paid securities lending (FPL), driving innovation at the intersection of finance, regulation, and technology. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role. You’ll work closely with leadership across Product, Engineering, Compliance, and Operations to shape a product that will redefine how advisors think about access to credit — and ultimately expand what’s possible for their clients.

Requirements

Experienced: 8+ years in product management with a track record of owning complex, high-visibility products — ideally in fintech, credit, or regulated environments.
Strategic: You see the system — connecting product vision to company strategy, financial outcomes, and user behavior.
Execution-focused: You move quickly, make smart tradeoffs, and deliver impact without compromising quality or compliance.
Influential: You lead through context and collaboration, not control. You can inspire engineers, designers, and executives alike.
Data-savvy: You use data and insight to challenge assumptions, validate direction, and measure success.
Resilient and grounded: You operate with confidence, humility, and a learning mindset — even in ambiguity.
