    Job Purpose

    As the Group Product Manager (GPM) – Conversion, you will lead the strategy, execution, and optimization of the customer journey from application through funded agreement. You will own a portfolio of products focused on reducing friction, increasing conversion, and delivering a seamless experience across digital, retail, and assisted channels.

    You will lead a team of Product Managers while partnering closely with Engineering, Design, Marketing, Risk, Operations, Data & Analytics, Customer Experience, and business stakeholders to identify opportunities, validate solutions, and deliver measurable business outcomes. This role is responsible for balancing customer experience, operational efficiency, and portfolio quality to drive sustainable growth.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Define and execute the product strategy and roadmap for the Conversion portfolio, aligned with company objectives and customer needs.
    • Lead and mentor a team of Product Managers, fostering a culture of ownership, experimentation, customer obsession, and continuous improvement.
    • Own the end-to-end customer journey from application initiation through funded agreement, identifying and eliminating friction that impacts conversion.
    • Partner with UX and Design to create intuitive, low-friction customer experiences across web, mobile, retail, and assisted channels.
    • Collaborate with Engineering to prioritize and deliver high-impact capabilities while balancing innovation, technical health, and operational stability.
    • Use customer insights, experimentation, analytics, and A/B testing to continuously improve funnel performance and customer outcomes.
    • Track KPI performance across channels, driving ROI and customer satisfaction.
    • Partner with Risk and Operations to optimize verification, decisioning, fulfillment, and agreement experiences while maintaining responsible portfolio growth.
    • Drive cross-functional alignment across Product, Engineering, Marketing, Customer Experience, Operations, Retail, and executive leadership.
    • Champion a data-driven product culture that prioritizes measurable customer and business outcomes over feature delivery.
    • Stay informed on emerging technologies, AI capabilities, and industry trends that can simplify customer experiences, automate processes, and accelerate conversion performance.

    Qualifications

    • 8+ years of Product Management experience, with 3+ years leading Product Managers or product teams.
    • Proven experience owning customer-facing digital products and complex customer journeys.
    • Experience improving conversion funnels through experimentation, analytics, and customer research.
    • Strong analytical skills with experience using data to identify opportunities and measure success.
    • Demonstrated ability to influence across cross-functional teams without direct authority.
    • Excellent communication and executive presentation skills.
    • Experience in financial services, fintech, retail, eCommerce, leasing, lending, or other regulated industries is preferred.

    About the company

    Upbound

    The cloud service providers of today run their interfaces and services with control planes. They're able to enable self-service and flexibility to their customers without letting go of control, governance, reliability or security. Meanwhile, enterprises continue to run their cloud infrastructure with config — resulting in instability, security risks and low productivity. Upbound is democratizing the best kept secret in cloud computing — the control plane. By leveraging custom APIs, cloud engineers are no longer hindered by configuration drift, multiplying workspaces and frustrated developers. With Upbound, platform engineers get centralized control, governance and stability and developers get freedom of self-service. Upbound is the creator and maintainer of the popular open source project Crossplane, a framework for building cloud native control planes. The company is a Series B startup and has raised $69M in total funding. Upbound's backers include GV (formerly Google Ventures), Altimeter Capital and Intel Capital.
