High Performance at Neo

We recruit, hire, and build our company culture around these attributes:

Teamwork: We trust, respect, encourage, and show up for each other — through good times and hard. We're on this mission not just for ourselves, but also for the people we work with — and ultimately, for our customers.

Ownership: We all have a stake in Neo's success — so we go out of our way to do what needs to get done. We hold ourselves accountable to deliver on our commitments — to our customers, to our partners, and to our team. When we fall short, we find a way to do better in the future.

Professional Integrity: We're asking millions of Canadians to trust us with their hard-earned money — so we hold ourselves (and each other) to the highest standards of integrity.

• Build a high performing team; ensuring your product managers are prioritizing effectively, managing their stakeholders, and leading their cross-functional agile teams through the full build-measure-learn lifecycle
• Develop a deep understanding of our financial product stack from a user, technical, operations, business and design perspective; our leaders are hands-on and love to jump into the weeds to help their teams directly
• Lead the product development with engineering, product marketing, UX research, and product design teams to build the best Financial Services products in the market
• Participate in budget management throughout the year and the annual budget process
• Responsible for gathering feedback and communicating ongoing developments of the products you own up, down and across the company
• Evaluate qualitative and quantitative data related to the product experience to identify strategies, trends, and opportunities
• Engage with third party banking and technology partners to coordinate plans and roadmaps that will support continued product innovation

Who we are looking for

• 7+ years of experience working with software products
• 3+ years of experience in a leadership role directly managing a team of 3+ product managers (e.g. Lead PM, GPM, Director, Head, etc)
• Prior start-up or product experience, systems or engineering background
• Experience with digital technologies, financial products, e-commerce, payments, or subscription businesses
• Take ownership over your work and outcomes with a passion for building world-class products and teams; ideally including experience at a scale of 100k+ users
