Principal Product Manager - Credit

The posting, as Marqeta wrote it

As a Principal Product Manager for the Credit team at Marqeta, you will own the end-to-end strategy for our credit platform — defining the multi-quarter roadmap that scales core credit services to meet the evolving needs of our customers and partners.

You are a recognized thought leader in credit and fintech, bringing forward-thinking ideas grounded in market dynamics, regulatory realities, and deep technical fluency. This is an individual contributor role where you will mentor others on the team and drive prioritization across a complex web of stakeholders, make clear-eyed risk/reward decisions, and set the standard for how great credit infrastructure products are built and delivered at scale.

We work Flexible First https://www.marqeta.com/blog/2022/05/10/flexible-first. This role can be performed remotely. We’d love for you to join us!

The Impact You'll Have

• Shape the Credit Platform Roadmap — Define, own and deliver the multi-quarter strategy for credit platform core services, aligning prioritization with client needs, business objectives, and regulatory requirements.
• Define Requirements That Scale — Author detailed product requirements and technical documentation that guide engineering teams building robust backend systems, APIs, and data models for credit account management and transaction processing.
• Drive Cross-Functional Execution — Lead coordination across engineering, GTM, operations, legal, compliance, and risk to move new credit products and features from concept to market with rigor and accountability.
• Shape architecture as a peer to engineering. Partner with engineering leaders on decisions affecting account management, transaction processing, and data integrity, and own the product consequences of those choices.
• Champion the Customer — Engage directly with external customers and internal stakeholders to surface needs, validate solutions, and ensure delivered features create measurable value.
• Make Data-Informed Decisions — Use analytics and product metrics to identify platform gaps, measure feature impact, and continuously sharpen prioritization across the credit roadmap.
• Represent credit externally. Be Marqeta's credit voice with enterprise clients, issuing banks, and networks. Bring market and regulatory signal into the roadmap before it turns into a client escalation.
• Lead across teams without direct reports. Align engineering, GTM, operations, legal, compliance, and risk across multiple teams. You own the outcome even when you don't manage the people.

WHO YOU ARE

• 10+ years of product management experience in fintech or payments, with demonstrated experience working with networks and banks in a leadership capacity.
