Product Manager, Strategic Initiatives

About Pave Bank

Pave Bank is building modern financial infrastructure across payments, banking, trading, and digital asset services. We operate at the intersection of regulated finance, technology, and global capital movement, with a focus on creating products that are operationally robust, commercially scalable, and technically sophisticated.

We are looking for a Product Manager who is comfortable operating in ambiguity, translating complex business problems into executable product and engineering outcomes, and helping shape new business verticals from the ground up.

This is not a traditional “roadmap maintenance” product role. The ideal candidate is commercially curious, technically literate, and excited to work across multiple domains within financial services.

Over time, we expect this role to evolve into ownership of a business unit or strategic product vertical.
