Join to apply for the Principal Product Manager, Circle Impact role at Circle
Circle is a financial technology company at the epicenter of the emerging internet of money, where value can finally travel like other digital data — globally, nearly instantly and less expensively than legacy settlement systems. This ground-breaking new internet layer opens up previously unimaginable possibilities for payments, commerce and markets that can help raise global economic prosperity and enhance inclusion. Our infrastructure – including USDC, a blockchain-based dollar – helps businesses, institutions and developers harness these breakthroughs and capitalize on this major turning point in the evolution of money and technology.
What You’ll Be Part Of
Circle is committed to visibility and stability in everything we do. As we grow as an organization, we're expanding into some of the world's strongest jurisdictions. Speed and efficiency are motivators for our success and our employees live by our company values: High Integrity, Future Forward, Multistakeholder, Mindful, and Driven by Excellence. We have built a flexible and diverse work environment where new ideas are encouraged and everyone is a stakeholder.
Circle Impact is a mission-driven team within Circle dedicated to advancing digital financial infrastructure for global financial inclusion and resilience.
What You'll Be Responsible For
As the first Product Manager on the Circle Impact team, you’ll lead the feasibility study and subsequent development of scalable and secure blockchain-powered solutions and products that address real-world problems in, but not limited to, underserved regions. You will collaborate across engineering, design, compliance, business development, marketing, and external partner organizations to deliver impactful solutions that service an array of non-profits and NGOs, whether it’s facilitating aid disbursement, expanding financial access, or enabling transparent cross-border payments.
You are passionate about technology, thrive in a fast-moving environment, and care deeply about using your skills to solve global inequity in access to financial products. You may already be well-versed in the crypto space and inspired by Circle’s vision of an open and inclusive internet-native financial system.
What You’ll Work On
- Define and drive the product and partnership roadmap for Circle Impact’s technical initiatives and customer solutions, from concept to launch.
- Collaborate with engineering, developer marketing, product management, and design teams to build APIs, applications, and services for the nonprofit and NGO cohort that leverage stablecoins, smart contracts, and blockchain infrastructure.
- Partner with NGOs, fintech startups, and government agencies to co-design user-centric solutions that address real-world financial inclusion challenges.
- Own product and implementation lifecycle decisions - discovery, prioritization, forecasting, execution, and go-to-market strategy.
- Work closely with compliance, legal, risk, and operations to ensure solutions are scalable and globally compliant.
- Represent the product and customer solutions internally and externally - clearly communicate the roadmap, metrics, goals, and results to collaborators.
- Stay ahead of industry trends in blockchain, crypto, financial technology, and impact-focused innovation.
- Collaborate deeply with cross-functional colleagues, especially the Product Management team and the Solutions Engineering team.
- 10+ years of experience as a Product Manager, with a track record of shipping technical products or platforms (APIs, developer tools, web/mobile apps).
- Solid technical background - you can engage confidently with engineers and members of the Product Management and Solutions Engineering teams.
- Experience working on financial technology, blockchain, developer platforms, or distributed systems is strongly preferred.
- Deep interest (or background) in crypto, blockchain ecosystems, and their potential to transform global financial systems.
- Demonstrated passion for financial inclusion, humanitarian aid, economic empowerment, or adjacent social impact domains.
- Outstanding communication skills - you can articulate complex technical and human-centered ideas to diverse audiences.
- User-obsessed and data-driven - you balance intuition with experimentation, validation, and iteration.
- Experience working with smart contracts, blockchain protocols, or decentralized applications (dApps).
- Background in working with NGOs, international development, or public-private sector partnerships.
- Familiarity with compliance, AML/KYC regulations, or financial regulatory environments.
- Prior experience launching products in emerging markets
