What Product Management is like at Gusto:

• We’re looking for high-autonomy, entrepreneurial Product Managers to come build high-impact solutions for small businesses and their employees. We believe in high-ownership Product Managers who operate like business owners - owning an entire roadmap end to end, and shaping the product from strategy setting through the nitty gritty execution details.
• Our Product team is lean, which means you’ll have a high degree of impact and ownership.
• We’re here to serve small and medium businesses. Gusto has a strong mission-driven culture, and we care deeply about lifting up these business owners.

About the Team:

Gusto’s Business Money team is building the financial operating system for small businesses. We help owners manage how money flows in and out of their business — from paying bills and running payroll on time to accessing capital and controlling employee expenses. We’re expanding beyond payroll into a comprehensive small business platform, and this role is at the heart of that transformation.

You'll help build financial tools that give business owners more confidence and control over their businesses cash flow, giving them more time to focus on building their business all while making their money go farther. Whether it’s a $3,000 loan to make payroll or an expense card that keeps team spending secure, you’ll shape solutions that make a real difference in the lives of business owners.

Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day:

• Own roadmap initiatives for Gusto’s business money products, broadly around expense management, cashflow, and many adjacent financial services-focused features.
• Lead from the front and deliver small business and consumer-focused financial solutions that support core operational needs including: issuing cards, scanning receipts, categorizing expenses, tracking mileage, and offering capital when it’s needed most.
• Get in the trenches with cross-functional teams spanning Product, Engineering, Design, Data, Risk, Compliance, Legal, and Ops to ship resilient, compliant, and delightful products.
• Partner with external vendors (e.g., issuing banks, card processors, loan platforms, accounting infrastructure) to deliver reliable, integrated experience.
• Deeply understand our customers, particularly how financial stress impacts small business owners, and use that empathy to craft effective product narratives.
• Measure what matters — define KPIs, build dashboards, and use data to drive prioritization, learning, and iteration.
• At the end of the day - own the business outcomes of your workstream as a true owner and champion of growth.

Here’s what we're looking for:

• Has a bias toward action, comfort with ambiguity, and a strong sense of ownership.
• Has 5+ years of product management experience in fintech or adjacent industries.
• Brings hands-on expertise in expense management, card issuing, or small business lending — bonus for experience with ledgering, ACH/wire/RTP payments, or third-party vendor integrations.
• Thrives in scrappy, 0→1 and 1→10 environments and knows how to deliver impact with limited resources.
• Understands the regulatory and operational complexity of financial products and can partner effectively with Risk, Legal, and Compliance teams.

If you don't think you meet all of the criteria above but still are interested in the job, please apply. Nobody checks every box, and we're looking for someone excited to join the team.
