[Remote] Lead Product Manager | Bankrate

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Red Ventures is seeking a Lead Product Manager to shape the product strategy for Bankrate's Supply platform ecosystem. The role involves owning the product strategy, managing a team, and ensuring the scalability and reliability of the platform to support future growth in home lending.

Responsibilities

• Own and define the end-to-end product strategy for our B2B product suite, with our Mortgage PPE, Loantek, as the primary and most critical focus area
• Develop a clear, multi-year product vision for modernizing the pricing engine and supporting systems to handle increased scale, complexity, and volume — including preparedness for expected 2026 refinance traffic surges
• Deeply understand the current state of Loantek’s pricing logic, integrations, constraints, and operational realities, and articulate a cohesive modernization roadmap from a product lens
• Frame strategic tradeoffs explicitly and guide investment decisions using customer needs, advertiser outcomes, platform health, and business impact
• Ensure pricing, data, and advertiser workflows are scalable, reliable, and aligned with long-term business needs
• Lead a cross-functional squad, setting direction while empowering PMs to own discovery, delivery details, and sprint execution
• Partner with Engineering and Design leads to ensure strong execution health, technical quality, and appropriate sequencing of foundational vs. feature work
• Establish clear operating rhythms, decision frameworks, and success metrics that enable consistent delivery and learning
• Partner closely with engineering, design, data, and business stakeholders to ensure these systems work together cohesively as a platform ecosystem
• Manage and coach 3 direct reports, acting as a people builder who grows PM craft, judgment, and autonomy
• Provide clear expectations, ongoing feedback, and coaching across discovery, delivery, stakeholder management, and systems thinking
• Balance being hands-on where needed while enabling PMs to independently drive day-to-day execution and discovery
• Define success metrics tied to platform scalability, pricing effectiveness, advertiser outcomes, and system reliability
• Use quantitative and qualitative insights to validate strategy, guide prioritization, and iterate on the roadmap
• Take accountability for outcomes, not just output, and incorporate learnings into future investment decisions

Skills

• Ownership of a home lending pricing engine or PPE, ideally in mortgage or refinance contexts
• Deep knowledge of mortgage pricing, rate logic, eligibility constraints, margins, and advertiser dynamics
• Experience with pricing platforms such as Optimal Blue, Mortech, or similar engines
• Proven ability to modernize and scale complex, legacy platform systems
• Technical product or engineering background focused on backend, platform-level systems
• Strong product leadership with a 12–24 month strategic horizon and systems-level thinking
• Experience leading PMs or readiness to step into people leadership
• Ability to influence cross-functional teams and drive measurable, revenue-impacting outcomes amid ambiguity

Benefits

• Health Insurance Coverage (medical, dental, and vision)
• Life Insurance
• Short and Long-Term Disability Insurance
• Flexible Spending Accounts
• Holiday Pay
• 401(k) with match
• Employee Assistance Program
• Paid Parental Bonding Benefit Program
