Mercury has long been celebrated for revolutionizing how startups experience the magic of banking*. In April 2024, we took things a step further with the launch of our consumer banking offering - and it’s been a game-changer, quickly becoming one of the fastest-growing segments at Mercury.

Now, we’re looking for a Senior Product Manager to join our Personal Banking team and co-lead the charge in shaping the future of consumer banking and investment offering. This is your opportunity to define the strategy and roadmap for a seamless, innovative banking experience that bridges consumer investments and banking products.

You’ll dive deep into building new small- and large-scale products for personal customers and the complexities of domestic and international banking networks, quickly uncovering issues, crafting solutions, and championing their importance across teams. Your ability to wield data with precision will be key to prioritizing and justifying a product roadmap that delivers unparalleled user experiences and integrations.

Collaboration is at the heart of what you’ll do. You’ll work closely with internal teams and external partners to design solutions that feel effortless to users—even when the underlying systems are anything but simple. The ultimate goal? To create a banking and investment experience that users describe as secure, reliable, thoughtful, and yes, even magical.

If you’re passionate about building elegant solutions to complex problems and creating products that make people’s financial lives better, we want to hear from you. Ready to shape the future of personal banking with Mercury? Let’s make it happen.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
