While most companies treat "Travel" and "Expenses" as two separate, clunky silos, your mission is to merge them into a single, seamless flow. This isn't about incremental improvements; it’s about building an end-to-end experience that removes friction and complexity, from budgeting and instant approvals to frictionless submission, payments and automated reconciliation.

As a Staff Product Manager, you will own a strategic area of our product, driving growth for our Spend product. This is a role for a builder who thrives in the "grey area." You will navigate high levels of ambiguity, deeply research unmet user needs, and orchestrate execution across multiple product squads.

What You’ll Do

• Own the vision, strategy, and roadmap for our Spend ecosystem
• Drive high-velocity execution with a world class team of making bold, fast bets informed customer feedback, data, market research, and deep intuition for how AI can reshape how teams operate
• Use customer insights with technical possibilities, crafting intuitive user experiences that simplify the user experience
• Help millions of employees and thousands of finance teams seamlessly manage expenses, cards, and invoice processing.
• Prototype rapidly using tools like Claude and Cursor to accelerate the product development lifecycle and fast-forward to production-ready products.
• Stay deeply plugged into AI research, industry trends, and emergent applications, filtering signal from noise and applying it creatively to Perk products
• Empower Your Team: Lead with a servant-leadership approach help stay focused, remove distractions, and foster creativity and collaboration

What You’ll Need

• Strong customer empathy and design thinking, with a passion to understand the entire expense lifecycle — from the moment of spend inception through automated reconciliation to final posting in the ERP system — and the specific friction points unique to complex accounting workflows
• Fluency in data and how to make data-driven product decisions
• Experience evaluating product decisions and prioritization trade-offs
• Demonstrated ability to lead and influence small teams of engineers & designers toward a common goal
• Ability to collaborate with multiple stakeholders and large cross-functional teams
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Passion for AI, shown through hands-on building, prototyping, or side projects, and staying current on research and tools.
• Fluency with modern prototyping tools (e.g. Cursor, Bolt, Claude Code) and comfort with design/collaboration environments like Figma and Git.
