Slope
Job Description
About Slope
Slope is building the infrastructure to power B2B commerce with embedded capital. Backed by Sam Altman, Y Combinator, Union Square Ventures, J.P. Morgan, and Notable Capital, we power financing directly inside platforms like IKEA and ShipBob — turning capital into a seamless part of day-to-day workflows.
We’re at a pivotal growth moment. As we expand into some of the largest commerce ecosystems in the world, we’re looking for a Product Growth Manager to lead activation and expansion efforts across our platform partners. Your mission: turn platform traffic into approved and funded businesses — and help them grow.
What You’ll Own
As Slope continues to scale, we’re looking for a Product Growth Manager to lead the activation, engagement, and expansion of our most strategic platform partners. Sitting at the intersection of post-sale success and product growth, this role is key to ensuring that our partners not only go live seamlessly, but also continue to unlock value from Slope over time. You’ll work cross-functionally with our Product, Engineering, Partnerships, and Ops teams to drive successful launches, deepen usage, and uncover new growth opportunities.
Activation & Onboarding
Design and iterate on onboarding flows that guide users from discovery → signup → approval → funding
Collaborate with engineering and design to remove friction and reduce time-to-value across key product journeys
Conversion & Expansion
Develop and test product levers across pricing, pre-qualification, messaging, and re-engagement
Identify pathways to deeper partner penetration and account expansion via data-driven insights and targeted product strategies
Analytics & Experimentation
Build and own the end-to-end funnel — analyze drop-off points, propose hypotheses, and run A/B tests to drive improvements
Work with data tools like SQL, Metabase, and Sheets to uncover patterns and prioritize opportunities
Monitor partner health through product usage, engagement metrics, and risk indicators—then take action to improve them.
Cross-Functional Execution
Partner with Engineering, GTM, Risk, Customer Success, and Platform Partners to translate insights into shipped product
Close the loop on performance by bringing back learnings from customer conversations and partner feedback into the roadmap
Act as a strategic advisor to partners by understanding their business models, vertical-specific challenges, and growth goals.
Systems & Tooling
Identify gaps in internal workflows and tooling that slow down activation or expansion — and work cross-functionally to fix them
Contribute to building scalable systems (dashboards, playbooks, automation) to enable more efficient partner launches
Who You Are
7-10+ years of experience in product, growth, or product ops, ideally in fintech, B2B platforms, or embedded financial products
Deep experience owning funnel metrics and optimizing for activation, conversion, or engagement
Strong product instincts — you think in user flows and aren’t afraid to dive into the details
Data-fluent: confident working with SQL or similar tools to uncover insights and measure impact
Action-oriented, outcome-driven, and energized by solving hard problems quickly
Strong communicator and collaborator — you can align teams and move fast across functions. Strong ability to build trust and influence across a variety of partner stakeholders—from operators to C-suite.
Bonus: experience working with APIs, platform ecosystems, or lending products
Why This Role, Why Now
We’re live with top-tier platforms and scaling fast — growth is no longer about just adding partners, but unlocking value from day one
This is a founder-style seat: full ownership of a business-critical funnel at a company defining the future of B2B commerce
You’ll be part of a tight-knit, high-context team that moves fast, ships often, and wins together
