• Maintain a simple but visible portfolio/initiative tracker for our branded credit card.
• Partner with Analytics and Finance to monitor KPIs and dashboards for our branded credit card performance (e.g., funnel conversion, usage, losses, unit economics).
• Identify performance issues and dig into root causes (e.g., channel, customer segment, credit tier, product feature).
• Recommend data-driven actions (tests, changes, follow-ups) and collaborate with Product, Marketing and Risk to implement them.
• Build a strong understanding of branded credit card customer segments, use cases and pain points through data, research, and feedback from partner teams.
• Track competitive and market trends in general purpose credit cards and bring relevant insights into planning.
• Partner with Marketing to support channel strategy and campaigns for our branded credit card (e.g., positioning, cross-sell, lifecycle actions).
• Work with Risk, Compliance, and Legal to ensure business proposals are consistent with policies and regulatory expectations.
• Support Product and Operations in documenting business requirements and considering operational and servicing impacts for our branded credit card initiatives.
• Identify operational pain points or recurring issues impacting the branded credit card customer experience and propose improvements.
• Serve as a central coordination point for branded credit card initiatives across Product, Marketing, Risk, Analytics, Operations, and other teams.
• Communicate priorities, status, and key decisions clearly and concisely to partners and leadership.
• Help ensure alignment between branded credit card initiatives and broader Snap/Seen portfolio strategy.

What you’ll need to succeed:

• 2+ years of experience in product management, product strategy, business management, consulting, or analytics, ideally in consumer finance, credit cards, banking, or fintech.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; comfortable working with data, building simple models, and deriving insights.

What would make you stand out:

• Experience with credit card products or other revolving credit/lending products.
• Familiarity with credit card lifecycle metrics (acquisition, activation, usage, delinquency, losses).
• Experience in a high-growth, fast-paced environment (e.g., fintech, startup).
• Prior experience in program management or business operations supporting product or commercial teams.
