Join the Tilt team

At Tilt, we see a side of people that traditional lenders miss. Our mobile-first products and machine learning-powered credit models look beyond credit scores, using over 250 real-time financial signals to recognize real potential. With millions of customers worldwide, we're not just changing how people access financial products — we're creating a new credit system that backs the working, whatever they're working toward.

The opportunity: Head of Core US Product

Tilt is hiring a Head of Core US Product to lead the company's core product portfolio — a $400M+ revenue engine spanning Cash Advance, CA+, Thrive, and our next generation of non-lending bets including AI Assistant, Marketplaces, Autosave, Checking, and Budgeting. This is a GM-style role: you'll own strategy, pricing, packaging, and the product narrative, and you'll lead the shift from a single-product transaction business into a multi-product financial brand users choose and return to.

How you'll make an impact
  • Own the P&L across Tilt's core product portfolio: Lead Cash Advance, CA+, Thrive, and a growing set of non-liquidity products (Autosave, Checking, Budgeting, AI Assistant, Marketplaces). You drive the strategy, pricing, and packaging decisions that shape the business.

  • Transform Tilt from single-product to multi-product: Move the user relationship from a transaction ("$200 that reached your pocket") to a financial brand users return to for a breadth of solutions, and lead the team through that evolution.

  • Drive top-line growth through product innovation: Marketing and credit-driven acquisition powered Tilt's first phase. You'll identify and execute the product- and user-led levers that power the next one.

  • Be the strategic voice of the user: Bridge the gap between credit policy, marketing, and a UX that becomes a genuine competitive moat. The team today skews highly analytical — you bring the seasoned PM orientation that makes the user real inside every decision.

  • Articulate a coherent product vision: The core app today is absent a strategy. You'll define who Tilt builds for and why, and make every surface reinforce that narrative.

  • Build and elevate a high-potential product org: Mentor strong individual contributors and managers into the next level of seniority and shape a team that operates across a multi-product surface area.

  • Partner across functions: Work shoulder-to-shoulder with credit, engineering, design, marketing, and finance to align unit economics, roadmap, and brand.

Why you're a great fit
  • You have built and shipped consumer products at meaningful scale, ideally in the fintech/lending/credit space.

  • You've operated in the pace and ambiguity of a high-growth environment and know how to make crisp calls without perfect information.

  • You're at Director level today, or you're a Group / Lead / Principal PM ready to step up. You've managed other PMs and grown them.

  • You speak the language of the business - revenue, profit, retention, credit policy — while keeping a strategic, user-centered point of view. Founder experience is a strong plus.

  • You can author a product strategy from a blank page, defend it under pressure, and rally cross-functional partners around it.

  • You’re a data first player/coach who is not afraid to get their hands dirty.

Don’t meet every qualification? We care about potential over your past. If you're bringing ambition and drive to what we're building, we want to hear from you.

What you'll get at Tilt
  • Virtual-first teamwork: The Tilt team is collaborating across 14 countries, 12 time zones, and counting. You’ll get started with a WFH office reimbursement.

  • Competitive pay: We're big on potential, and it's reflected in our competitive compensation packages and generous equity.

  • Complete support: Find flexible health plans at every premium level, and substantial subsidies that stand up to global standards.

  • Visibility is yours: You can count on direct exposure to our leadership team — we’re a team where good ideas travel quickly.

  • Paid global onsites: Magic happens IRL: we gather twice yearly to reconnect over shared meals or kayaking adventures. (We’ve visited Vail, San Diego, and Mexico City, to name a few.)

  • Impact is recognized: Growth opportunities follow your contributions, not rigid promotion timelines.

The Tilt Way

We're looking for people who chase excellence and impact. Those who stand behind their work, celebrating the wins and learning from the missteps equally. We foster an environment where every voice is valued and mutual respect is non-negotiable — brilliant jerks need not apply. We're in this together, working to expand access to fair credit and prove that people are incredible. When you join us, it's not just another day at the [virtual] office, you're helping millions of hardworking people reach better financial futures.

You’re pushing ahead in your career? We can get behind that. Join us in building the credit system that people deserve.
