Job description

At Shakepay, we’re on a mission to usher in the Bitcoin golden age. We’re reimagining financial services to give every Canadian their fair shake.

Our culture is built around doing work that matters, winning as a team, and celebrating success. If you're the kind of person who values growth, shipping fast, and sharing your ideas openly with a group of like-minded people, come and build with us!

About Shakepay

Since 2015, we’ve been building the Shakepay app to make buying and earning bitcoin fast, easy, and secure. In 2022, we launched the Shakepay Card, allowing shakers to earn bitcoin rewards when they shop. Today, more than one million Canadians use Shakepay to grow their bitcoin savings and take control of their financial future.

We’re regulated across all Canadian provinces and territories, and backed by renowned venture capitalists with a funding of $44M. We have a passionate, loyal, and growing community, and we’re looking for people who want to help us build something truly special.

Staff Product Manager

As Staff Product Manager at Shakepay, you’ll report directly to our CEO and take ownership of developing, executing, and leading the product strategy for our core consumer product. You’ll work cross-functionally with engineering, design, data, marketing, leadership, and other stakeholders to craft and execute high-impact initiatives that grow the business. Your work will directly impact how Canadians discover Shakepay, experience their first bitcoin transaction, and keep coming back.

What you’ll be doing:

• Influence the vision, strategy, and execution for both new and existing products.
• Collaborate with engineering and design teams to build products our customers love.
• Work closely with data and research to uncover deep insights into user behavior and identify high-leverage opportunities.
• Own product development end-to-end, from conception to launch to scale-up.
• Communicate product vision and strategy to stakeholders, including executive leadership.
• Define, track, and analyze the impacts of product changes, ensuring that key business metrics are achieved.
• Regularly communicate product strategy and progress with executive leadership and the broader team.

Who we’re looking for:

• 8+ years of experience as a product manager in mobile-first technology companies, ideally in fintech or consumer marketplaces.
• Excellent communication and storytelling skills—you inspire teams and influence stakeholders.
• A data-driven approach to decision-making, with experience setting, measuring, and improving product success metrics.
• Multiple 0-1 product launches that you’ve managed from conception to launch and scaled.
• A track record of shipping products that have delivered meaningful results.
• Comfortable operating autonomously, making decisions with imperfect data, and ruthlessly prioritizing.
• Deep curiosity about bitcoin, financial services, and the future of money.
• You’re relentlessly resourceful and thrive in fast-moving environments.
• Experience driving product growth by identifying and executing strategies to improve key metrics like user acquisition, retention, and engagement.
• Experience with data-driven experimentation and optimization.
• Help shape the future of money: Be part of a team that's revolutionizing financial services in Canada, one sat at a time.
• Impact millions: As cryptocurrency continues to gain traction, our potential for growth is massive. You can help us bring Shakepay and Bitcoin to all Canadians.
• Grow your career: We’re growing, and so can you! We have programs in place to encourage continuous learning, growth, and development.
• Ideas, not titles: We want the best ideas to make their way through, no matter where they come from.

Perks and benefits

• Be an owner - Every employee has stock options as part of their total compensation.
• Reach your goals - Yearly salary assessments.
• Health & wellness : Access to health and dental coverage, including health and wellness spending accounts.
• Remote-friendly: Work from anywhere in Canada, with optional access to our office spaces in Montreal and Toronto.
• Level Up: A $2,000 annual budget for courses, certifications, and training to support your career growth.
• Time off: 20 days of vacation per year. And if you use all your vacation, we give you a $1,000 bonus.
• Parental leave: Enjoy a parental leave top up to 100% of your salary for 18 weeks.
• Have fun together: quarterly team-specific or company-wide offsite to connect with each other.

We understand that potential can be just as valuable as experience. If you're eager to learn, grow, and contribute to the mission but worry that you may not have the “right” experience, we still want you to apply.

Fluency in English is required due to the percentage of English-speaking customers and the nature of our platform, which is available to all Canadians.
