Senior Technical Program Manager

Описание вакансии

ABOUT OUR COMPANY:

The crushing weight of debt is something that we believe holds people back from reaching their dreams and making a splash in the world. So in 2013, after seeing our friends and family struggle with student loans, we created Splash Financial.

Over the years, our mission has expanded to include helping people with other forms of debt - such as refinancing credit cards, which are at all time highs in the US. And we’ve been able to refinance $6+ Billion in loans through our network of Splash, powered credit union and bank partners who leverage our marketplace and automated loan processing technology. And we’ve raised over $135 million from investors like partners of DST Global, Citi Ventures, TruStage Ventures, Northwestern Mutual Future Ventures, Detroit Venture Partners, and more.

But at our core, we’re still that little company from Cleveland with a big dream: to make people more powerful than their debt and we’re just getting started..

ABOUT OUR WORKPLACE:

Splash is remote-first, and proud of it.

We spend our days simplifying financial products and getting them into the hands of people who need them most. Right now, we’re focused on building financial technologies that fundamentally transform how the industry lends.

Although Splash has been around since 2013, we still operate like a startup — fast-paced, nimble, and full of heart. We’re good people who care deeply about doing meaningful work and we approach challenges with creativity, passion, and urgency.

And to hire the best, we provide the best: great health insurance, competitive salaries, and unique benefits like quarterly meet-ups and access to engagement tools that keep us connected — even from afar.

At Splash, everything we do is guided by our values:

Own It – We take full accountability and follow through on commitments.

Raise the Bar – We move fast, innovate faster, and push through barriers.

Say the Hard Thing – We speak up with honesty, respect, and a desire to solve problems and make things better.

Elevate Each Other – We win as a team by lifting each other up.

These values show up in how we work and how we connect — whether we’re collaborating on big projects or bonding over everyday moments. Yes, we even have Slack channels for #kids-and-pets and #food because we believe being human makes us better teammates.

ABOUT THE ROLE:

Splash Financial is seeking a Sr Technical Program Manager to uplevel execution across our Product organization. You’ll own end-to-end delivery for our most critical product initiatives, run and improve our Product Development Lifecycle (PDLC) and its core artifacts, and implement/maintain our product roadmap tooling so OKRs, initiatives, and status are clearly visible across teams. Partnering closely with product, engineering, design, and operations, you’ll turn strategy into clear plans, manage dependencies and risks, and create the rhythms and standards that help us ship high-quality work faster. This is a highly visible role with direct impact on how effectively we deliver value to our customers.

WHAT YOU’LL DO AT SPLASH:

• Own end-to-end project management for complex, cross-functional product initiatives—from initial scoping and planning through launch and post-release follow-up.
• Design, run, and refine our PDLC processes, including standard artifacts (e.g., problem statements, business cases, PRDs/requirements, experiment designs, launch plans, and post-launch reviews) that create clarity and alignment at each stage.
• Implement, administer, and continuously improve our product roadmap tool and workflows, maintaining a single source of truth that ties initiatives to OKRs, milestones, dependencies, and status.
• Build and maintain clear portfolio-level visibility (dashboards, reports, and cadences) into OKR progress and initiative health for product leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.
• Proactively identify and manage cross-team dependencies, risks, and blockers—facilitating decision-making and escalation to keep high-priority work on track.
• Standardize and continuously improve product delivery practices, tools, and templates so teams can execute with greater predictability, transparency, and quality.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO SPLASH:

• Significant experience (typically 6+ years) in project or program management within a product/technology organization, ideally in fintech, financial services, or another highly regulated domain.
• Proven track record leading complex, cross-functional projects from ambiguity to launch, with clear examples of how you navigated dependencies, risk, and change.
• Hands-on experience running and improving a Product Development Lifecycle (or similar SDLC/PDLC framework), including ownership of key artifacts and stage gates.
• Strong familiarity with modern product and project methodologies (Agile, Kanban, hybrid approaches) and common tooling (e.g., Jira, Asana, Confluence) plus experience with at least one roadmap/portfolio tool (e.g., Productboard, Aha!, Jira Align, or similar).
• Comfort working with OKRs and metrics—you can connect business goals to initiatives, define meaningful milestones, and create reporting that leaders actually use.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills; you’re comfortable driving alignment across senior leaders and diverse teams, saying the hard thing with clarity and respect, and elevating others as you go.

COMPENSATION:

The base salary range for this role is $143,000 to $200,000 annually, based on market data and internal compensation practices. This role may also be eligible for a bonus component tied to individual and company performance. Final compensation will be determined by factors such as location, experience, and skill level.

SPLASHERS ENJOY:

• Fully remote work freedom
• Competitive salary packages
• Flexible PTO + 9 company holidays
• Equity: Share in our start-up success
• Comprehensive and affordable insurance benefits
• Paid parental leave for both caregivers
• Essential modern equipment to get the job done
• Fully paid Claude subscription to supercharge your work
• 401(k) for your future savings
• Quarterly meet-ups: In person & virtual fun
