Senior Director, Product Management — Fair Lending

About this role

About RiskExec
RiskExec is a growing SaaS company that delivers compliance analytics and regulatory reporting software to financial institutions and lenders. Our platform helps customers meet complex regulatory requirements, produce defensible analyses, and identify new growth opportunities.
Working at RiskExec
RiskExec is building a world-class compliance and business intelligence platform trusted by banks, credit unions, fintech companies, and other regulated lenders.
We help customers navigate complex regulatory requirements while making better business decisions. Our operating model is built around speed, rigor, accountability, and customer outcomes. We value people who take ownership, work directly with their colleagues, communicate clearly, and remain accountable for results.
As an entrepreneurial organization undergoing significant product and AI transformation, our work does not always conform to a traditional 9-to-5 schedule. This role requires sound judgment, responsiveness, and a willingness to engage when critical customer or business needs arise.
Role Overview
RiskExec’s customers rely on our platform to assess high-stakes regulatory risk, produce defensible analyses, and turn complex data into decisions they can trust and act on.
This role exists because Fair Lending and adjacent disciplines—including Fair Servicing and Redlining—are becoming more strategic, visible, and demanding for financial institutions. Customers need faster insights, clearer workflows, stronger defensibility, and greater automation. RiskExec must meet that demand with product leadership that is commercially sharp, deeply grounded in the domain, and capable of converting customer and regulatory complexity into shipped software.
The Senior Director, Product Management will own the product direction and business outcomes for RiskExec’s Fair Lending, Fair Servicing, and Redlining modules. You will set priorities, define tradeoffs, drive roadmap execution, and ensure the platform delivers measurable improvements in adoption, retention, expansion, customer trust, and operating efficiency.
This is not a coordination role. It is a product leadership role with direct accountability for execution and outcomes. You will own what we build, why it matters, how it wins, and whether it delivers value in the market.
Location
We are considering candidates based in the United States who can work remotely. Candidates located in the Eastern or Central time zones are preferred.
What You Will Own
You will own the end-to-end results of the assigned product modules.

•
Product strategy and roadmap: Define the direction, priorities, sequencing, tradeoffs, and de-scoping decisions for Fair Lending, Fair Servicing, Redlining, and related analyses within the compliance analytics suite.

•
Customer outcomes and adoption: Drive measurable improvements in product usage, workflow completion, time to insight, renewal health, and customer value realization.

•
Commercial leverage: Provide the product strategy, evidence, and inputs Sales, Customer Success, and Marketing need to support packaging, positioning, competitive differentiation, account expansion, webinars, thought leadership, and customer-facing proof points.

•
Voice-of-customer operating system: Build a structured intake process across Sales, Customer Success, Support, Implementation, and direct customer conversations. Synthesize those signals into product decisions and close the loop with internal teams and customers.

•
Competitive position: Maintain a clear view of market alternatives, emerging threats, feature-parity decisions, and opportunities to strengthen RiskExec’s differentiation.

•
Quality and trust: Ensure product behavior is compliance-grade, analytical outputs are defensible, and releases are reliable, understandable, and ready for customers operating in regulated environments.

•
Enablement for scale: Create repeatable onboarding, training, workflow, and self-service assets that reduce dependence on services and improve consistency across the customer base.

Scope Boundary
You are accountable for product direction, prioritization, value delivery, adoption, and market success.
Engineering owns how the product is architected and built. You will partner closely with Engineering and DevOps to support delivery, but your mandate is to define outcomes, force clarity, make tradeoffs, and hold the organization accountable to agreed commitments.
How You Will Drive Impact
This is a high-output operating role. You will run a disciplined product cadence, make decisions using evidence, and ship capabilities that improve customer outcomes and business performance.
You will operate through a clear rhythm:

•
Weekly product execution review with Engineering: Confirm scope, assess delivery risks and dependencies, evaluate release readiness, and resolve open decisions.

•
Customer discovery and validation every two weeks: Observe workflows, identify adoption friction, assess renewal risk, review win-loss signals, and validate usability.

•
Monthly suite business review: Evaluate adoption, retention risk, roadmap progress, services burden, support trends, and revenue impact.

•
Quarterly strategy refresh: Reassess regulatory developments, market conditions, competitive movement, customer demand, and portfolio allocation.

You will have decision authority over priority order, MVP definitions, roadmap tradeoffs, and what the team stops doing. Executive alignment will be required when decisions involve material investment, company strategy, or significant customer commitments.
You will serve as the escalation owner when customer urgency, technical constraints, regulatory sensitivity, and commercial pressure collide. Your responsibility is to surface tradeoffs early, present the case clearly, and drive a decision rather than allow ambiguity to slow execution.
