The impact
Method’s largest customers are building the next generation of financial products. We’re hiring a Forward Deployed Product Manager to help shape what they build next and turn those ideas into meaningful growth for both their business and ours.
As part of Method’s Product team, you’ll be the dedicated product partner for a set of our most strategic accounts. You’ll work directly with senior product leaders to understand their ambitions, spot opportunities they haven’t considered, and bring a clear point of view on what’s possible with Method. You’ll bring them ideas of your own, develop theirs, and own the path from the first conversation through launch, bringing together Product, Engineering, Sales, and Customer Success to make it happen.
This role combines product strategy, deep customer relationships, and the resourcefulness to get things built. You’ll test ideas with customers early, turn feedback into concrete next steps, and stay accountable for the outcome. As an early member of this team, you’ll also help define how Method partners with its largest customers to build new products and grow.
What you'll do
Own the strategic product relationship with Method's largest accounts, working with these customers to identify, then build, new initiatives and revenue opportunities.
Collaborate directly with our customers’ CPOs and product leaders, building relationships where you are their first call for anything net-new involving Method.
Orchestrate the full account team, pulling in Sales, Customer Success, Implementation, and Engineering at the right moments to bring these initiatives to life.
Proactively put new ideas in front of customers early, learn from their response, and iterate quickly.
Help define the playbook for how Method runs forward-deployed coverage as the model expands to more accounts.
Work cross functionally to guide strategy on maximizing value from existing customer integrations
Who you are
