Product Manager I - Financial Service
Meesho · India
About the Team Product Management in Meesho closely resembles our rapacious growth. Because we obsess over understanding customer behaviour, we’ve been able to carve out an e-commerce niche in Tier 2/3/4 towns in Bharat. Our business growth is testimony to a singular focus on how we think of ‘product’ for our unique customers - ones that have barely shopped online, but are now able to because of Meesho. Fun fact: Nearly 5% of India’s households shop with us. 😉Meesho's Financial Services arm is on a mission to democratize access to capital for every player in our ecosystem, from users seeking Personal Loans and BNPL, to SME sellers powering their growth with Term Loans. As we scale this business, we're looking for a sharp FinTech professional who has navigated the complexity of lender integrations and knows how to turn financial infrastructure into seamless user experiences. About the Roleyou'll own Meesho's native Personal Loans journey end-to-end, driving integrations with Banks, NBFCs, and other Financial Institutions to ensure capital is always available for our users. You'll anchor the bottom of the funnel, set data-backed conversion goals across onboarding stages, and relentlessly ship fixes to leaks before they cost us. If you've lived in the world of lending APIs, love obsessing over funnel metrics, and want to build at the intersection of FinTech and scale, this one's for you.
