Principal Product Manager, Arc Consumer

As Principal Product Manager for Arc Consumer at Circle, you'll define the future of consumer experiences built on stablecoins and blockchain infrastructure. You'll own the product strategy and roadmap for Arc's consumer application, working across Design, Engineering, Data, and the broader Circle organization to turn powerful onchain capabilities into intuitive, trustworthy products. This is a highly entrepreneurial role building a new consumer product from an early stage, with the opportunity to shape its product strategy, customer experience, and roadmap.

What you'll do

• Define the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for Arc's consumer application. Identify the highest-value problems you can solve for consumers and translate them into simple, compelling product experiences.
• Simplify onchain finance by taking powerful but often complex capabilities-wallets, stablecoins, swaps, cross-chain transfers, DeFi, payments, and onchain applications-and turning them into experiences that mainstream consumers can confidently understand and use.
• Build for a future of agentic finance by defining how users discover, interact with, and delegate financial tasks to AI agents to achieve their financial goals.
• Create product loops that drive engagement, retention, and frequency by identifying core use cases that give consumers compelling reasons to hold, move, spend, exchange, and use digital dollars and other digital assets on Arc.
• Develop a deep understanding of your customers by partnering closely with User Research, Data Science, Design, and Engineering to understand user motivations, behaviors, and pain points. Spend time directly with customers and use qualitative research, analytics, and experimentation to inform product decisions.
• Partner deeply with Product Design to create experiences that are intuitive, trustworthy, fast, and delightful, sweating the details across interaction design, information architecture, content, and the moments that build or lose customer trust.
• Drive growth through the product by identifying and building product mechanisms that improve acquisition, activation, engagement, and retention. Use experimentation and analytics to understand what works and systematically improve the customer journey.
• Connect to the broader onchain ecosystem by defining how consumers discover and interact with applications, assets, and experiences across Arc and the broader crypto ecosystem.
• Lead cross-functional execution by building strong partnerships across Engineering, Design, Research, Data Science, Marketing, Legal, Compliance, Risk, and Operations. Create clarity in ambiguous environments, align teams around priorities, and drive products from idea through launch and iteration.

What you bring

• 10+ years of product management experience, with significant experience building and shipping high-quality consumer products.
• A demonstrated ability to take consumer products from concept to launch and grow them through rapid iteration.
• Exceptional product judgment and a strong point of view about what makes a consumer product simple, intuitive, and delightful.
• Deep understanding of onchain products and culture, including wallets, stablecoins, DeFi, trading, payments, and cross-chain experiences. You should be an active user of crypto products with strong opinions about what today's experiences get right and what needs to be reinvented.
• Strong understanding of AI agents and agentic finance, with a point of view on how emerging agent capabilities can create fundamentally new consumer financial experiences.
• The ability to operate at both levels required of a Principal product leader: setting high-level strategy while getting deeply involved in the details required to ship exceptional products.
• Deep curiosity about consumer behavior and an instinct for uncovering unmet customer needs. You will have deep experience working with Product Design and User Research, combined with strong analytical instincts and a track record of using research, product analytics, and experimentation to make better product decisions.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to create alignment and drive execution across highly cross-functional teams.
• A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Economics, or a related technical or analytical field.

Nice to have

• Experience building products in fintech, payments, crypto, trading, or other consumer financial services.
