Job Description

We are looking for a Product Lead to own and develop the SME Credit Products direction within Plata Empresa.

Plata Empresa is building a comprehensive banking ecosystem for small and medium-sized businesses, including current and FX accounts, business cards, deposits, payments, and acquiring. Credit products are one of the key areas of growth and monetization, with a portfolio that includes business credit cards, overdrafts, factoring, and working capital financing.

In this role, you will own the strategy and P&L of the SME credit business, lead a team of Product Managers, and work closely with Risk to define the credit strategy. You will be responsible for the entire product portfolio and its performance — from launching and scaling individual products to managing portfolio quality, unit economics, and profitability.

  • Designing end-to-end credit journeys across origination, signing, disbursement, servicing, repayments, and collections, with a strong focus on automation
  • Building the regulatory framework together with Legal and Compliance and ensuring products meet relevant regulatory and reporting requirements
  • Managing key business and portfolio metrics, including portfolio volume and quality, margin, NPL, approval rate, limit utilization, and CAC/LTV
  • Working closely with Engineering, Analytics, Risk, Legal, Sales, and Operations to deliver and scale credit products

What makes you a great fit:

  • 6+ years of experience in Product Management within fintech or banking, including 3+ years working with SME / B2B credit products
  • Proven experience launching credit products from scratch and managing an existing credit portfolio
  • Strong understanding of the full credit lifecycle, from origination and scoring to servicing and collections
  • Experience leading Product Managers or owning several product areas simultaneously
  • Strong understanding of credit product economics, including P&L, pricing, cost of risk, and provisioning
  • Solid knowledge of credit risk management, including scoring models, limit policies, and vintage analysis
  • Strong analytical and data-driven decision-making skills
  • B2 or higher English level for effective communication with an international team

Your bonus skills:

  • Understanding of the Mexican financial and regulatory environment, including CNBV, SAT, SPEI, and CFDI
  • Hands-on experience with SQL or Python
  • Spanish language skills
Our ways of working:
  • Innovative Spirit: A commitment to creativity and groundbreaking solutions
  • Honest Feedback: valuing open, transparent communication
  • Supportive Team: a strong, collaborative community
  • Celebrating Achievements: recognizing our wins together
  • High-Tech Environment: a team full of smart and revolutionary people who date to challenge the status quo of incumbent finances
Our benefits:
  • Relocation support to Mexico with assistance for the employee and their family
