ABOUT THE ROLE

We're seeking a Staff Product Manager with 8+ years of experience to own and scale Nova Credit's Property Management vertical. Over the past five-plus years, Nova Credit has processed millions of income verifications for thousands of property management companies - and this role owns the product strategy at the center of that business, spanning across all four of our products today: Income Navigator, Eligibility Compass, Credit Passport, and Cash Atlas.

This is an opportunity to own a vertical end-to-end: setting product strategy, building the roadmap, and shipping products that help housing providers verify applicants faster and more accurately while meeting challenging regulatory requirements. You'll partner deeply with property management and screening platforms (e.g., Yardi, Appfolio, SafeRent), and work closely with Engineering, Data Science, Compliance, and Go-To-Market. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, B2B2C environment, engages directly with market-rate property managers and affordable-housing operators, and translates their needs into impactful product requirements.
This is a hybrid full-time role (3 days per week in office on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays) based in the New York Metropolitan area, reporting to the Head of Product. We welcome candidates willing to relocate- we provide relocation support to make your move smooth.
WITHIN THE FIRST MONTH, YOU'LL:

• Get deep on the Property Management vertical, learning the fundamentals of the Property Management industry and their use cases for Nova Credit's product platform..
• Build strong cross-functional partnerships across Engineering, Data Science, Compliance, GTM, and Solutions Architecture.
• Listen in on calls with market-rate property managers and affordable-housing operators, and review customer feedback to understand their pain points and needs.
• Dive into product metrics and company KPIs to find areas for improvement.
• Deliver on at least 1 key feature from the roadmap, while making a preliminary assessment on longer-term goals and priorities.

WITHIN THE FIRST QUARTER, YOU'LL:

• Have a clear understanding of Nova Credit's business model, the property management landscape and customer needs across market-rate and affordable housing, as well as competitors.
• Define and own the prioritized roadmap for the Property Management vertical that is aligned with company goals and our product vision.
• Set quarterly product goals for the vertical.

WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR, YOU'LL:

• Become the subject matter expert for Nova Credit's Property Management vertical.
• Launch and iterate on multiple initiatives across our product platform with demonstrated impact to key metrics like adoption and conversion.
• Deepen integrations and partnerships with property management and screening platforms.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with strategic cross-functional partners and key customers.
• Refresh the product strategy for the vertical while contributing to annual roadmapping and Nova Credit's long-term product vision.

YOUR SKILLSET:

• 8+ years in product management. B2B or B2B2C, with a proven track record of shipping high-performing products.
• PropTech / property management background. Direct experience in property management, tenant screening, or affordable housing. (Strongly preferred.)
• Comfort with regulated spaces. You treat compliance such as FCRA / CRA obligations and affordable-housing program requirements as a first-class product concern.
• Data fluency. You write your own SQL queries and build Mixpanel dashboards to inform your decisions.
• Customer obsession. You talk to customers constantly and synthesize their insights with quantitative data to drive strategy and prioritization.
• Cross-functional range. You navigate technical trade-offs with Engineering, debate UX approaches with Design, tie prioritization to revenue for GTM, and communicate complex concepts to any audience.
• Bias toward action. You break ambiguous problems into achievable milestones and drive them to resolution end-to-end, without being beholden to process over outcomes.

BONUS QUALIFICATIONS:

• In-depth industry knowledge in PropTech, or working with consumer-permissioned or credit data within real estate technology.
• Familiarity with affordable-housing programs and compliance (e.g., LIHTC, HUD, Section 8) or income/asset verification workflows.
