About the Role

LendingClub is seeking a Lead Product Manager to own the most complex, ambiguous, and cross-cutting problems in the personal loans portfolio, from acquisition and application through decisioning, offers, and funding. You will shape portfolio-level strategy alongside the Sr Director of Product Management, frame problems the team has not yet recognized, and set the standard for product craft that others model their work on. Your impact is measured by the quality of your strategic thinking, the clarity of your problem framing, and the outcomes your work produces across the portfolio.

You will serve as a trusted product voice to senior leadership across Engineering, Design, Research, Data, Risk, Compliance, Operations, and business stakeholders, navigating the complex intersections of regulation, credit strategy, and customer experience.

What You'll Do

• Drive improvements in funnel conversion and customer experience through data-driven insights and validated customer research
• Frame high-value problems the team has not yet identified: synthesize market signals, customer evidence, and business performance into new strategic opportunities
• Conduct continuous product discovery: build deep customer expertise through direct research, validate opportunities with evidence, and challenge assumptions
• Develop and manage a clear, evidence-grounded product backlog and roadmap, communicating strategy and tradeoffs to cross-functional leadership
• Align portfolio roadmap priorities with senior business partners, ensuring shared understanding of tradeoffs and investment rationale across the team
• Write clear problem statements, PRDs, Epics, stories and acceptance criteria that set the standard for how the team communicates with Engineering
• Partner with Product Delivery Management on portfolio planning, dependency management, and launch coordination
• Explore the use of emerging AI solutions and actively use modern AI tools to elevate research, synthesis, experimentation, and product development

What Success Looks Like

• Portfolio strategy reflects your influence: clear investment rationale, well-framed problems, and measurable outcomes tied to business performance
• Measurable improvements in funnel conversion, customer experience, and risk performance driven by initiatives you led or shaped
• Strong cross-functional alignment and trusted partnerships across the organization, including Engineering, Design, Risk, Compliance, Operations, Marketing, senior business leadership, and your peers

About You

• 8+ years of product management experience
• Experience working in regulated consumer fintech environments
• Demonstrated practice of continuous product discovery, including customer research, problem validation, and evidence-based prioritization at portfolio scale
• Proven ownership of high-traffic digital products with measurable customer and business outcomes in complex, regulated environments
• Strong analytical orientation and comfort defining KPIs and working closely with data
• Recognized cross-functionally as a trusted partner; proactively builds alignment and brings stakeholders together across Engineering, Risk, Compliance, Design, and business teams
• Experience defining experimentation strategy for your assigned product domain
• Ability to clearly articulate strategy, frame tradeoffs, and influence senior leadership across technical, business, and regulatory audiences
• Strong product judgment recognized by peers; others seek your input on their hardest problems
• Track record of leveraging AI tools to elevate product thinking, analysis, and execution quality
• Bachelor’s degree in a related field; or equivalent work experience
