At Chime, we believe in the power of our product to help people lead healthier financial lives. The Trust & Safety team spans the full member lifecycle and is responsible for keeping our members' accounts safe, ensuring uninterrupted access to their money, and minimizing risk and fraud loss across the platform. 

We're hiring Product Managers across Trust & Safety to drive critical investments spanning, KYC, support experiences and automation, and disputes. These roles sit at the intersection of customer experience, risk management, operations, and compliance-owning high-impact problem spaces where the tradeoffs are real and the stakes are high.

You'll partner closely with Engineering, Data Science, Design, Operations, Risk, and Compliance to define strategy, ship impactful products, and continuously iterate based on data and insights.

These are high-impact opportunities to shape how Chime balances growth, safety, and member experience at scale.

The base salary for this role depends on the position location:

• San Francisco, CA: The base salary range is $150,000 to $244,000.

• Chicago, IL: The base salary range is $150,000 to $176,000.

Full-time employees are also eligible for a bonus, a competitive equity package, and comprehensive benefits. The actual base salary offered will depend on factors such as location, skills, qualifications, and experience.

The Enrollment & KYC Product Manager and Disputes Product Manager roles are available in either San Francisco, CA or Chicago, IL, and candidates may be based in either location.

The AI Agent Product Manager role, however, is based exclusively in San Francisco, CA. Candidates for this position must be located in or willing to relocate to the San Francisco Bay Area.

• Disputes: Transform member experiences and design intelligent systems that help members navigate and resolve transaction disputes, balancing member trust, fraud risk, loss exposure, and operational efficiency

Across these areas, you'll work on problems that directly impact member trust, financial access, and the long-term integrity of the platform.
