Responsibilities
Run your product like a business: help define the vision, strategy, and roadmap for one or more Banking Services domains (e.g., bank account linking, ACH and local bank transfers), grounded in clear objectives, metrics, and the needs of our brand product teams and end customers
Partner cross-functionally, with engineering, financial operations, risk, compliance, treasury and multiple partner product teams at Block to define roadmaps and deliver platform capabilities that are reusable, compliant, and scalable across Block
Own the end‑to‑end lifecycle for your capabilities — from opportunity discovery and requirements definition through launch, adoption, and ongoing optimization — balancing new feature delivery with reliability, tech debt, and regulatory work
Collaborate closely with engineering to design resilient architectures for critical banking flows, ensuring we can keep money moving even in the face of partner outages, regional incidents, or internal failures
Deeply understand financial and regulatory constraints (e.g., NACHA rules, safeguarding requirements, open banking / 1033 obligations) and translate them into product and platform requirements that keep Block compliant while enabling great customer experiences
Drive cross‑functional programs that may span multiple Block brands (Cash App, Square, Afterpay), and functions (financial operations, risk, compliance, treasury), aligning priorities, sequencing work, and clearly communicating progress and trade‑offs
Use data to improve platform performance: own KPIs and OKRs for your product domain (e.g., success rates, GPV, return rates, latency, cost efficiency), instrument the platform to measure them, and feed insights back into your roadmap and prioritization
Contribute to our operating model by bringing clarity to charters, JTBDs, and SLOs for your area, and by helping improve shared planning and prioritization processes across Block Financial Platform

A collaborative, low-ego working style with a track record of building strong partnerships across engineering, operations, finance/treasury, compliance, risk and partner product teams — especially in matrixed organizations
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to simplify complex technical and regulatory topics for diverse audiences and to drive alignment with senior stakeholders across Block
An analytical and metrics-driven approach to decision-making; you are comfortable defining KPIs, digging into dashboards, and using both quantitative and qualitative insights to guide your roadmap
Curiosity, ownership, and a bias for action — you are excited by ambiguity, move quickly while bringing others along, and care deeply about building resilient, long-lived financial infrastructure that earns our customers' trust
