Argyle is a fast-growing, remote-first Series B startup solving a systemic data problem.

Underneath the consumer finance industry’s decisions and processes is static, analog documentation—things like credit reports and paystubs—designed decades ago for a world that no longer exists. Meanwhile, credit bureaus buy, move, store, and sell consumers’ data without their knowledge or consent.

The result? A labyrinth of manual workflows and shortsighted underwriting models that obstruct financial access, compound operational costs, and impede innovation.

The solution is Argyle. We’re a real-time income data platform that lets our end-users instantly connect their employment records to apps and websites, so they can access and qualify for the financial resources they need to get ahead. Providers benefit from streamlined workflows and enhanced visibility that reduce costs and risk across the user journey.

Our mission is to give consumers the means to exercise ownership over their income, employment, and identity data in order to create a more equal, efficient, and effective financial system for everybody.

About the team

Your team is in charge of a number of engineering-heavy products, including (but not limited to) Argyle’s Pay Distribution and API. It also owns Argyle’s Sandbox experience, Webhooks, and is spearheading a number of Argyle’s moonshots. This team also extensively collaborates with other products like Link and Console to ensure best UX and parity between Argyle’s code-first and no-code product suites.

What will you do? Argyle is looking for a PPM to own a suite of products and features, which are powered by Argyle’s core systems (e.g. Django-based API). This includes but is not limited to:

• Bringing our Pay Distribution product to maturity, which requires achieving a full feature set while managing the product’s client-facing complexity
• Revamping our Sanbdox experience so it becomes both more realistic (e.g. what data it returns to our clients) and comprehensive (enabling clients to encounter all Production-like scenarios in Sandbox [user flows, potential latency, errors, etc.])
• Scaling our MVP offering around webhooks
• Driving the development of Argyle’s API v2 from the Product perspective
• Identifying additional product-focused growth levers and building out new product experiences to take advantage of them

What are we looking for?

• Experience PM-ing a technical product (bonus points for an API-first product; at least some familiarity with RESTful API and tools like Postman a pre-requisite).
• Hypothesis- and data-driven approach + ability to ruthlessly prioritize. Bifocal Product lenses for both the bigger picture and the fine details for whatever you take on. Building the right Product right will require an intimate understanding of how our systems work and interconnect as well as thinking from first principles about the problems we're aiming to solve.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with people in a wide range of roles — engineering, analytics, (revenue) operations, QA, and sales being the primary ones.
• A desire for ownership and autonomy. “It doesn't make sense to hire smart people and tell them what to do. We hire smart people so they can tell us what to do.”
