Sr. Technical Product & Program Manager, Platform Engineering

BettermentBetterment HQ - New York City
Full-timeNot specifiedAug 19, 2026

About Betterment 

Betterment is a leading, technology-driven financial services company that offers investing, savings and retirement solutions for retail investors and investment advisors as well as financial wellness solutions, including a 401(k) for small and medium-sized businesses. Our team is passionate about our mission, to empower people to build wealth with confidence and ease.  We’re headquartered in NYC and offer hybrid NY-based positions (four days/ week in-office, with no required office days during the summer and winter holidays).

About the role

Platform Engineering organization’s mission is to enable engineers across the company to ship good code quickly, sustainably, and enjoyably. As a Senior Technical Program & Product Manager within Platform Engineering, you will partner with team leaders to understand organizational needs, align on priorities, and help craft and manage roadmaps for the platform capabilities that support Betterment’s engineering organization.

Working with Platform Engineering leaders, you will help define and prioritize initiatives that enable the company to:

  • Power Product Innovation: Partner with product engineering teams to develop scalable platform services, tooling, and shared components that help teams ship new features faster and more safely.
  • Standardize & Simplify: Collaborate on standards, frameworks, best practices, and migration paths that reduce fragmentation and make it easier for teams to build and operate services.
  • Maximize Efficiency: Identify opportunities with platform teams to improve reliability and operational excellence through automation, workflow simplification, and performance optimization.
  • Minimize Risk: Help align platform investments with the security, stability, resilience, compliance, observability, and disaster-readiness needs of the organization.

You will lead highly technical, cross-team initiatives end to end: framing the problem, aligning stakeholders, driving execution, surfacing risks, and measuring outcomes. You will work closely with the leaders of SRE Infra Enablement, Developer Experience, Security, and API & Auth Platform, as well as product engineering and other partners who depend on these capabilities.

You thrive in the intersection of product thinking and technical program delivery. You’re equally comfortable white-boarding with engineers, presenting tradeoffs to executives, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to drive meaningful, durable outcomes.

This role is based out of our NYC office. Below we've reflected the base salary range for this position. Actual salaries may vary depending on factors including but not limited to location, experience, and performance. The range listed is just one component of Betterment’s total compensation package for employees. 

  • New York City: $125,000-$145,000

This job may also be eligible for variable compensation in the form of a company incentive bonus. 

A Day in the Life: 

  • Partner with SRE Infra Enablement, Developer Experience, Security, and API & Auth Platform leaders to understand their strategies, constraints, dependencies, and investment choices.
  • Help facilitate a recurring roadmap process that turns technical opportunities, operational pain points, and partner needs into clear priorities and sequenced investments.
  • Work with engineering leaders and senior technical staff to clarify the problem, define the desired outcome, evaluate options, and document the decisions and tradeoffs.
  • Track progress against roadmap commitments and platform outcomes, surfacing risks, dependencies, and decisions early rather than simply reporting status.
  • Help teams make explicit tradeoffs when capacity is limited: what we will do, what we will defer, what we will stop doing, and what support or adoption is required from partner teams.
  • Partner with product engineering teams to understand adoption barriers and ensure that platform capabilities are usable, well-documented, and supported in practice.
  • Define and track measures of success such as reliability, security posture, developer experience, adoption, delivery efficiency, operational burden, and service performance.
  • Coordinate cross-team execution for initiatives that span multiple platform areas, including migrations, standards, shared services, and changes to engineering workflows.
  • Prepare concise updates and decision documents for platform leadership, with a clear point of view and explicit asks when leadership input is required.

What We’re Looking For: 

  • Strong experience shaping and executing roadmaps for backend platforms, infrastructure, developer tooling, SRE, security, APIs, authentication, or related technical domains.
  • Experience leading complex, cross-team programs where success depended on influence, adoption, and sustained partnership rather than direct authority.
  • Technical depth sufficient to work effectively with senior engineers on backend architecture, operational tradeoffs, reliability, security, developer workflows, or platform APIs.
  • A demonstrated ability to turn ambiguous technical problems into clear decisions, priorities, milestones, and measurable outcomes.
  • Experience balancing near-term delivery with long-term platform health, including standards, migrations, deprecations, reliability improvements, and operational readiness.
  • Strong judgment about how to prioritize shared platform investments when different teams have legitimate but competing needs.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication, including the ability to explain technical tradeoffs clearly to both engineers and senior leaders.
  • A collaborative, low-ego working style and a willingness to go deep enough to understand the problem without taking ownership away from the engineering leaders and teams doing the work.
  • Data-informed decision making, with the ability to define and use metrics related to reliability, security, adoption, developer experience, and efficiency.

Sr. Program Manager, Business Systems & Tooling

BettermentBetterment HQ - New York City
Full-timeNot specifiedAug 12, 2026

About Betterment

Betterment is a leading, technology-driven financial services company that offers investing, savings and retirement solutions for retail investors and investment advisors as well as financial wellness solutions, including a 401(k) for small and medium-sized businesses. Our team is passionate about our mission, to empower people to build wealth with confidence and ease.  We’re headquartered in NYC and offer hybrid NY-based positions (four days/ week in-office, with no required office days during the summer and winter holidays).

About the Role

The Business Systems & Tooling (BS&T) team builds and operates the internal systems that power Betterment's B2B businesses — from Salesforce and its surrounding integrations to the tooling that connects our sales, service, and advisor workflows to the Betterment platform itself. Because Betterment sells across multiple lines of business, our sales tech stack has to reflect that complexity: it's not one product and one funnel, but a set of interconnected systems serving distinct teams with distinct needs.

This role owns the interface between BS&T and its stakeholders. You'll embed deeply within stakeholder teams — attending their meetings, learning their day-to-day workflows, and understanding their upcoming priorities — so that BS&T can proactively identify opportunities rather than waiting for problems to arrive as tickets. You'll then bring that context back to the team, partnering with our engineering leads and architects to translate stakeholder needs into well-scoped tasks and clear, communicated roadmaps.

This role is ideal for someone who is energized by sitting between business teams and technical teams: fluent enough in each world to be trusted by both, and disciplined enough to turn ambiguity into a plan.

This role is based out of our NYC office. Below we've reflected the base salary range for this position. Actual salaries may vary depending on factors including but not limited to location, experience, and performance. The range listed is just one component of Betterment's total compensation package for employees.

New York City: $125,000 – $145,000

This job may also be eligible for variable compensation in the form of a company incentive bonus.

A Day in the Life

Stakeholder Immersion & Discovery

  • Embed with stakeholder teams across our lines of business, attending their regular meetings and building a working knowledge of their processes, tools, and pain points.
  • Proactively surface opportunities for tooling improvements, automation, and best practices — bringing ideas to stakeholders rather than waiting to be handed a problem.
  • Maintain a continuously updated view of each stakeholder group's upcoming priorities and how they map to BS&T's capacity and roadmap.
  • Act as the first point of contact for new stakeholder requests, gathering context and framing the underlying need before work is committed.

Scoping, Roadmapping & Prioritization

  • Partner with BS&T's engineering lead and architects to translate stakeholder needs into scoped, documented tasks with clear success criteria.
  • Own and communicate the BS&T roadmap, making prioritization decisions legible to stakeholders and aligning our planning rhythm with the rest of the company.
  • Balance urgent stakeholder priorities against high-value quality-of-life improvements, ensuring compounding wins don't get perpetually deferred.
  • Run intake, backlog grooming, and status communication processes so the team's work — and the reasoning behind it — is visible.

Vendor & Salestech Landscape

  • Stay current on the salestech landscape, evaluating emerging tools and practices for fit with Betterment's stack.
  • Support vendor assessments, procurement, and renewal processes across our salestech vendors, partnering with Finance, Legal, and Security as needed.
  • Help stakeholders evaluate build-vs-buy tradeoffs with a clear-eyed view of total cost, integration complexity, and maintenance burden.

What We're Looking For

Skills & Experience

  • 5+ years of experience in product management, technical program management, business systems analysis, or a similar role sitting between business stakeholders and technical teams.
  • Working knowledge of Salesforce and the surrounding GTM systems ecosystem (e.g., CPQ workflows, enrichment, engagement, and integration tooling) — enough to scope work credibly and ask the right questions, even if you don't build in it yourself.
  • Experience at a company with a complex, multi-product go-to-market — where internal systems must integrate the CRM, adjacent salestech tools, and the product being sold itself.
  • Demonstrated ability to turn ambiguous stakeholder requests into scoped, prioritized, well-documented work.
  • Experience supporting vendor evaluation, procurement, or renewal processes is a strong plus.

Professional Competencies

  • Builds trust quickly with both business stakeholders and engineers, and communicates fluently with each in their own terms.
  • Comfortable saying "not yet" — able to make prioritization tradeoffs transparent and keep stakeholder confidence even when their request isn't next.
  • Proactive by default: identifies opportunities and proposes solutions rather than operating purely on intake.
  • Strong writer and documenter; believes that a decision isn't made until it's written down and shared.
  • Thrives in a small team where process is yours to design, not inherited.

Nice to Have

  • Experience in fintech, financial services, or another regulated industry.
  • Familiarity with SQL or data analysis tools sufficient to self-serve answers about system and business data.
  • Exposure to marketing automation or martech platforms (e.g., Braze, HubSpot).

Sr. Engineering Manager, Broker Dealer

BettermentBetterment HQ - New York City
Full-timeNot specifiedJul 29, 2026

About Betterment

Betterment is a leading, technology-driven financial services company that offers investing, savings and retirement solutions for retail investors and investment advisors as well as financial wellness solutions, including a 401(k) for small and medium-sized businesses. Our team is passionate about our mission, to empower people to build wealth with confidence and ease.  We’re headquartered in NYC and offer hybrid NY-based positions (four days/ week in-office, with no required office days during the summer and winter holidays).

About the Role

As an Engineering Manager in Broker Dealer, you’ll lead a team building and evolving the backend systems that power Betterment’s trading and money movement infrastructure. This is a high-impact role in one of the most complex parts of our platform, where correctness, reliability, scale, and regulatory context all matter deeply.

Broker Dealer sits at the core of the Betterment platform. On a busy day, we securely move millions of dollars through our systems while ensuring every transaction flows through the right operational and risk checks to meet strict regulatory requirements. Every improvement in efficiency, quality, and decision-making in this area directly creates more value for our customers.

We’re looking for an engineering leader with strong people management fundamentals and strong technical judgment. You do not need to write production code every day to be successful in this role, but you do need to be technically credible: someone who can engage deeply in architecture and system design conversations, coach engineers through tradeoffs, raise the quality of code review discussions, and help a senior team make sound decisions in a complex domain. We also want someone who can help the team evolve how it works in an AI-enabled engineering environment, using new tools thoughtfully to increase leverage, improve decision quality, and maintain a high bar for correctness and craftsmanship.

This role will manage a team of individual contributors and partner closely with senior engineers, engineering managers, and cross-functional stakeholders across Product, Operations, Legal, and Compliance. It is especially well suited for someone who enjoys operating close to technical decisions, leading mature teams, and helping engineering organizations evolve how they work in a rapidly changing environment. This role is based out of our NYC office.

Below we’ve reflected the base salary range for this position. Actual salaries may vary depending on factors including but not limited to location, experience, and performance. The range listed is just one component of Betterment’s total compensation package for employees.

New York City: $210,000–$245,000

This job may also be eligible for variable compensation in the form of a company incentive bonus.

A Day in the Life

  • Manage a team of 6-8 backend engineers building trading technology that powers Betterment’s investing products.
  • Foster career development and align roadmap opportunities with each engineer’s growth goals, while keeping them technically engaged and challenged.
  • Lead a senior team with clear expectations, healthy accountability, and a team culture grounded in agility, ownership, constructive feedback, and shared success.
  • Be a technically credible leader through thoughtful code review, system design feedback, architectural tradeoff discussions, and strong partnership with senior engineers.
  • Balance the need for speed of delivery with the importance of correctness, resilience, maintainability, and quality in every project your team undertakes.
  • Champion long-term system health by advocating for the stability, reliability, and operational soundness of the technology your team builds.
  • Continuously improve team practices, engineering decision-making, and delivery effectiveness, including thoughtful use of AI-enabled tooling where it creates real leverage.
  • Drive high-quality, practical AI adoption across the team's engineering workflows from design and code review to debugging, documentation, and delivery planning.
  • Partner with senior engineers to create reusable internal prompts, playbooks, and domain-specific copilots that help the team move faster in a complex broker-dealer environment.
  • Build deep domain knowledge in Broker Dealer systems and become a highly effective partner across engineering and business stakeholders.
  • Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Operations, Legal, and Compliance teams to ensure we consistently deliver the right-sized solutions to the right problems.

What We’re Looking For

  • 3+ years of experience directly managing software engineers in a formal engineering management role.
  • 8+ years of experience building backend or distributed systems, ideally in complex, high-correctness environments.
  • Strong technical judgment in software design, architecture, and code review.
  • Experience leading or supporting senior engineers and helping high-performing teams continue to grow.
  • A track record of ramping quickly in complex domains, closing knowledge gaps, and building trust across technical and cross-functional partners.
  • Strong people management fundamentals, including coaching, feedback, performance management, and aligning engineers to meaningful work.
  • Experience fostering accountability and ownership while helping teams deliver high-quality, right-sized solutions.
  • Ability to adjust leadership style to meet the evolving needs of the team and the business.
  • Strong collaboration skills across engineering teams, product managers, subject matter experts, non-technical stakeholders, and third-party vendors.
  • Ability to translate business strategy and operational needs into engineering priorities that drive meaningful outcomes.
  • Good judgment about where AI can meaningfully improve team effectiveness, and where human review, domain expertise, and engineering rigor should remain primary.
  • Experience spotting repetitive, high-friction, or cognitively expensive team workflows and redesigning them with AI to create measurable leverage.

Nice to Have

  • Experience in regulated systems, financial infrastructure, trading, custody, ledgers, money movement, or other high-reliability backend domains.
  • Experience working with mature engineering teams where influence, judgment, and coaching matter as much as execution oversight.
  • Experience experimenting with or adopting AI-enabled engineering practices to improve team effectiveness without lowering quality standards.
  • Ability to distinguish between high-leverage AI use and low-quality generated output, and to guide engineers toward the former.

Incentive Compensation Manager

BettermentBetterment HQ - New York City
Full-timeNot specifiedJul 23, 2026

About Betterment

Betterment is a leading, technology-driven financial services company that offers investing, savings, and retirement solutions for retail investors and investment advisors, as well as financial wellness solutions, including a 401(k) for small and medium-sized businesses. Our team is passionate about our mission, to empower people to build wealth with confidence and ease. We’re headquartered in NYC and offer hybrid NY-based positions (four days / week in-office, with no required office days during the summer and winter holidays).

About the role:

Betterment is looking for an Incentive Compensation Manager to run the operational engine behind how we pay our go-to-market teams, reporting into our Revenue Operations team. In this role, you’ll be responsible for the administration, reporting, and continuous improvement of our incentive compensation programs, ensuring our go-to-market teams are paid accurately, on time, and in accordance with plan design.

You’ll own the monthly commission process from data validation through payout, including the operating cadences, reporting, controls, and cross-functional coordination required to support a reliable and auditable process. You'll also partner with Revenue Operations, Sales, Finance, Legal, and HR to design and operationalize compensation plans, model proposed changes, evaluate operational impacts, and translate approved plans into calculation logic and system configuration. 

Beyond commission administration, you'll drive continuous process improvement by identifying manual or inefficient workflows, strengthening documentation and controls, and implementing automation to improve scalability, accuracy, and efficiency. 

The ideal candidate combines strong operational ownership with a systems mindset. You’re comfortable working with complex data, managing deadline-driven processes, improving existing systems, and following details through from source data to payment.

This role is based out of our NYC office.

Below we’ve reflected the base salary range for this position. Actual salaries may vary depending on factors including but not limited to location, experience, and performance. The range listed is just one component of Betterment’s total compensation package for employees.

  • New York City: $120,000-$140,000

This job may also be eligible for variable compensation in the form of a company incentive bonus.

A day in the life:

  • Run the end-to-end monthly incentive compensation cycle, including data validation, calculations, reconciliation, stakeholder review, issue resolution, and coordination through payroll. 
  • Administer and continuously improve our incentive compensation management (ICM) platform — plan configuration, quotas, rates, and data integrations — so earnings are accurate and employees have clear, self-service visibility into their attainment and payouts.
  • Build and maintain the documentation, controls, and operating procedures that make the compensation process repeatable, auditable, and ready to scale.
  • Automate manual steps and improve data quality to increase the speed and accuracy of compensation administration.
  • Produce recurring commission reporting, Sales Performance Incentive Fund (SPIF) tracking, partner payout reporting, and ad hoc analyses for Sales and Finance.
  • Partner with Revenue Operations, Sales, Finance, HR, Payroll, and Business Systems to operationalize compensation plans, troubleshoot data or system issues, and ensure accurate, timely payouts.
  • Support plan design by modeling proposed changes, identifying operational and edge-case implications, documenting approved plans, and translating them into calculation logic and system configuration.
  • Investigate and resolve compensation questions from the field, with clear explanations reps and managers can trust.

What we’re looking for

  • At least five years of professional experience in Incentive Compensation, Sales Operations, Revenue Operations, or a related operational role with responsibility for administering variable compensation programs.
  • Proven experience running a monthly commission or incentive compensation cycle end to end, with a high bar for accuracy and on-time payout.
  • Hands-on experience administering an Incentive Compensation Management (ICM) platform such as Qobra, Spiff, CaptivateIQ, QuotaPath, or a similar solution.
  • A systems mindset with a passion for process improvement, automation, and building scalable, well-controlled operational workflows. 
  • Experience supporting incentive plan design: modeling proposed changes, documenting plan rules, and translating them into calculation logic and system configuration.
  • Experience working with Salesforce and partnering with Business Systems or technical teams to troubleshoot upstream data and system issues.
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, with experience partnering effectively across Revenue Operations, Sales, Finance, HR, Payroll, and Business Systems. 
  • Advanced spreadsheet skills; experience with SQL or BI tools is a plus.

Sr. Manager, Commercial Operations & Deal Desk

About Betterment

Betterment is a leading, technology-driven financial services company that offers investing, savings and retirement solutions for retail investors and investment advisors as well as financial wellness solutions, including a 401(k) for small and medium-sized businesses. Our team is passionate about our mission, to empower people to build wealth with confidence and ease.  We’re headquartered in NYC and offer hybrid NY-based positions (four days/ week in-office, with no required office days during the summer and winter holidays).

About the Role

Betterment is looking for a Senior Manager, Commercial Operations & Deal Desk to serve as the execution arm of our Revenue Operations team, reporting to the Senior Director, Head of Revenue Operations. As our commercial engine grows, you'll own our Revenue Operations processes (spanning supporting our go-to-market and post-sales teams) and own Deal Desk and Promotions. 

This role calls for someone who thinks like a process owner first: you are someone who notices friction and inefficiency before anyone flags it, and is motivated to design it out of the system rather than work around it. You’ll map how work actually flows across those handoffs today and redesign it so it holds up as we scale, including partnering with our Business Systems & Tools team, who own the technical build. 

Deal Desk and promotions carry real dollar and margin impact, so you’ll be trusted to partner with Sales, Finance, and Legal and make judgment calls without every decision being checked. This is a high-visibility individual contributor role for an operator who wants real autonomy and wants a direct, dollar impact on Betterment’s growth.

This role is based out of our NYC office. Below we've reflected the base salary range for this position. Actual salaries may vary depending on factors including but not limited to location, experience, and performance. The range listed is just one component of Betterment’s total compensation package for employees. 

  • New York City: $135,000- $160,000

This job may also be eligible for variable compensation in the form of a company incentive bonus. 

A Day in the Life:

  • Own the operational process and design for our commercial workflows end to end across Sales, Marketing, and Customer Experience - from lead handoff, through approvals and contracting, to onboarding and renewal 
  • Manage deal desk decisions - from structuring deals / pricing, to reviewing and approving Statements of Work, to conducting monthly audits to ensure complete consistency between opportunity records 
  • Own promotion development and operationalize pricing end to end - designing the offer, aligning stakeholders, and driving execution across Sales, Finance, and Legal
  • Partner closely with Betterment's Revenue Operations Enablement function on rollout of new deal structures, promotions, and process changes to the stakeholders you support

What We’re Looking For:

  • 7+ years of experience in deal desk, sales operations, commercial operations, or a related function, ideally within a B2B SaaS, fintech, or financial services environment
  • Strong analytical skills, with the ability to build and maintain pricing and margin analyses and reporting / dashboards that translate deal data into actionable insights
  • Demonstrated experience structuring and negotiating non-standard commercial deals and promotions, including pricing and discounting
  • Hands-on expertise designing commercial processes across the full funnel (in end-to-end commercial process), with a track record of building  workflows that scale with growth  
  • Excellent cross-functional collaboration skills, with a track record of partnering effectively with Sales, Marketing, Customer Experience, Legal, and Finance stakeholders
  • Ability to operate in ambiguity and building net-new processes and policies from scratch with a genuine operational efficiency mindset 
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain commercial and contractual concepts clearly to broader audiences
  • Comfortable operating with real decision-making autonomy.  Prior people management experience is a plus; this role is an individual contributor to start, with the path to people management 
  • A bias toward action and pragmatism, balanced with the judgment to know when a deal or promotion needs additional scrutiny. Strong working knowledge of Salesforce and other go-to-market systems / tooling

Business Systems Architect, GTM Systems

BettermentBetterment HQ - New York City
Full-timeNot specifiedJul 20, 2026

About Betterment

Betterment is a leading, technology-driven financial services company that offers investing, savings and retirement solutions for retail investors and investment advisors as well as financial wellness solutions, including a 401(k) for small and medium-sized businesses. Our team is passionate about our mission, to empower people to build wealth with confidence and ease.  We’re headquartered in NYC and offer hybrid NY-based positions (four days/ week in-office, with no required office days during the summer and winter holidays).

About the Role

We’re looking for a senior individual contributor to own the architecture and ongoing health of Betterment’s GTM systems ecosystem, with Salesforce at the center and a growing set of surrounding integrations.

This is a staff-level technical leadership role for someone who wants to spend their time solving hard systems problems, setting technical direction, and raising the bar for how our GTM systems are built.

This role goes well beyond system administration or ticket fulfillment. As the staff-level architect for Betterment’s GTM systems ecosystem, you’ll define technical direction across our stack, proactively identify architectural risks and opportunities, and bring forward new approaches before they become stakeholder asks.

You’ll partner closely with our Sales, Betterment Advisor Solutions (BAS), and Betterment at Work (B@W) teams as the primary technical counterpart to their workflows, and collaborate with our Data and Product/Engineering organizations on systems integration and data integrity. You’ll guide how our tools work together - Salesforce, HubSpot, Clay, and the rest of our GTM stack - and ensure we’re building for long-term scalability, data quality, and business impact.

This role is not the primary owner of routine system administration, basic ticket fulfillment, or standard stakeholder intake; it is focused on the most complex architectural, integration, and platform-health problems across our GTM systems.

You’ll be a force multiplier for the broader Business Systems & Tools team: reviewing solution designs, mentoring engineers on architecture and integration patterns, and stepping into the team’s highest-risk or most ambiguous cross-system work to unblock progress and raise the quality bar.

This role is based out of our NYC office. Below we've reflected the base salary range for this position. Actual salaries may vary depending on factors including but not limited to location, experience, and performance. The range listed is just one component of Betterment’s total compensation package for employees.

This job may also be eligible for variable compensation in the form of a company incentive bonus. 

A Day in the Life

Own the GTM systems architecture

  • Define and maintain the target architecture for our GTM systems ecosystem - how data and workflows should move between Salesforce, HubSpot, Clay, and adjacent tools such as enrichment, engagement, telephony, billing, and analytics - and drive the stack toward it.
  • Define and maintain the canonical GTM systems architecture, including system-of-record boundaries, key data domains, integration patterns, and architecture decision records, so the team has clear standards to build against.
  • Design and build scalable, maintainable solutions for our most complex, cross-system initiatives, owning them from problem framing through deployment.
  • Continuously audit the health of the stack: integration reliability, data integrity, technical debt, security posture, permissions, auditability, and platform limits - and drive remediation before problems reach stakeholders.

Set technical direction and raise the bar

  • Review and guide solution designs across the Business Systems & Tools team, providing guardrails and feedback that improve scalability, maintainability, and clarity.
  • Establish and evangelize standards for integration patterns, data design, deployment practices, release governance, and documentation.
  • Mentor engineers on architecture and technical decision-making, leading through influence and expertise rather than direct management.

Act as the primary technical counterpart to GTM teams

  • Partner with Sales, BAS, and B@W stakeholders to deeply understand their workflows, frame problems, evaluate tradeoffs, and translate needs into pragmatic system designs.
  • Serve as the resident thought leader on GTM systems: track where the market is going, especially in AI-driven GTM tooling and data enrichment, proactively bring stakeholders new approaches, and pressure-test vendor claims against real requirements.
  • Collaborate with Data and Product/Engineering teams on systems integration, data contracts, and data integrity across the company’s platforms.

Lead the hardest cross-system work

  • Step into the highest-priority or highest-risk initiatives across stakeholder areas when deep architectural ownership is needed, especially when work spans multiple tools, teams, or business processes.
  • Lead the technical diligence and implementation architecture for new tools and major platform changes: define requirements, assess fit against our target architecture, coordinate security and integration design, and guide implementation through UAT and cutover.

What We’re Looking For

Architecture & Systems Depth

  • Deep expertise with Salesforce as the core system of record for GTM, including declarative, programmatic, and integration approaches - and, more importantly, the architectural judgment to choose the right pattern based on scale, maintainability, risk, and downstream data implications.
  • Demonstrated experience owning architecture for a multi-tool GTM stack in a B2B or SaaS environment: designing integrations, defining data flows, and managing system dependencies at scale.
  • Strong understanding of integration design patterns such as APIs, middleware, and event-driven flows, and their implications for reliability, reporting, user experience, and operational support.
  • Experience with marketing automation and sales engagement platforms, with HubSpot strongly preferred, and with GTM data enrichment/orchestration tooling; experience with Clay or similar signal-based automation platforms is a significant plus.
  • Solid data literacy: comfortable defining data contracts, validating data across systems, and partnering with data and analytics teams on integrity and reporting.
  • Strong judgment on permissions, auditability, release risk, and data governance in complex business systems environments.

Technical Leadership

  • A track record of operating as a staff-level or lead IC: setting technical direction, reviewing others’ designs, and raising quality across a team without formal management authority.
  • Proven ability to own ambiguous, high-stakes projects end-to-end, from problem discovery through deployment and adoption, with minimal oversight.
  • Experience defining durable architecture artifacts and operating mechanisms, not just delivering projects.
  • Experience running or heavily contributing to vendor evaluations and platform migrations, including technical diligence, security considerations, and implementation planning.

Consultative Partnership

  • Strong consultative mindset - you ask the right questions, challenge assumptions, make tradeoffs transparent, and co-create solutions with stakeholders in ambiguous environments.
  • Proven ability to build trust with GTM leaders and represent systems thinking in cross-functional forums, translating between technical and business audiences fluently.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills - clear documentation, crisp design docs, and skimmable stakeholder updates.

Nice to Have

  • Salesforce architect-track certifications such as Application Architect, System Architect, or Integration Architecture Designer.
  • Experience with AI-driven GTM workflows, including automated enrichment, outbound orchestration, or conversation intelligence writing back to CRM.
  • Experience with deployment and DevOps tooling for Salesforce, such as Copado, and release management best practices.
  • Familiarity with the broader RevOps stack, including call intelligence, sales engagement, customer success platforms, billing, and BI tools.

The team partners closely with Engineering and with other risk disciplines including Security, Compliance, Legal, and Operations.

Our team is passionate about our mission, to empower people to build wealth with confidence and ease.  We’re headquartered in NYC and offer hybrid NY-based positions (four days/ week in-office, with no required office days during the summer and winter holidays).

About the Role

Betterment's Support organization touches every customer, every advisor, and nearly every team in the company — and this role owns it. As Director of Support, you'll lead a team of managers and specialists across retail CX, advisor support (BAS), and support operations, while managing two global BPO partnerships and a multimillion-dollar budget. You'll set the quality bar, own the delivery model, and drive the organization forward — not reactively, but ahead of what's coming.

This is a role for someone with high standards, deep operational expertise, and the kind of ownership mentality that doesn't wait to be asked. You'll partner closely with Product, Engineering, Fraud, Legal & Compliance, and Investing, and report directly to the VP of Support & Operations.

This role is based out of our NYC office. Below we've reflected the base salary range for this position. Actual salaries may vary depending on factors including but not limited to location, experience, and performance. The range listed is just one component of Betterment’s total compensation package for employees. 

  • New York City: $155,000-$185,000

This job may also be eligible for variable compensation in the form of a company incentive bonus. 

A Day in the Life:

  • Lead and develop a team of managers across three functions: retail CX complex case resolution and high value customer support, advisor support for our BAS product line, and support operations (product/eng liaison, VoC, and launch readiness).
  • Own two BPO partnerships end-to-end — contract management, SLA accountability, quality programs, and day-to-day performance.
  • Manage the Support budget with rigor: own forecasting, capacity planning, and cost decisions across internal and BPO channels.
  • Set and hold a high quality bar across all channels, using data to identify gaps and drive measurable improvement.
  • Serve as a senior escalation point for complex cases requiring coordination across Legal, Compliance, Fraud, Engineering, or executive stakeholders.
  • Partner cross-functionally to ensure support teams are prepared for product launches, regulatory changes, and operational shifts — and that customer signals inform what we build.
  • Identify what's broken, build the case for change, and own outcomes.

What We're Looking For

  • Significant experience in CX or support leadership, with a track record of scaling teams and raising the bar on quality and performance.
  • Proven experience managing global BPO relationships, including vendor selection, contract negotiation, and performance accountability.
  • Financial acumen — you've owned a multimillion-dollar budget and made resource allocation decisions under pressure.
  • Strong forecasting and capacity planning capabilities; you build models that translate into real operational decisions.

You’ll own the performance, quality, and health of the team—ensuring we meet and exceed service levels, and turn every interaction into a moment that strengthens trust.

A Day in the Life

  • Lead, coach, and develop a team of ~10 licensed customer experience representatives who handle inbound client requests across chat, email, and phone.
  • Own team performance metrics (e.g., SLAs such as first response time, handle time, customer satisfaction) and implement strategies to consistently meet or exceed monthly goals.
  • Own day-to-day support operations for the licensed queue, including staffing and scheduling.
  • Monitor and review client interactions through QA programs, providing clear, actionable feedback and development plans to continuously raise the bar on quality, empathy, accuracy, and regulatory adherence.
  • Use data to run the business, regularly reviewing dashboards, communicating with leadership and implementing solutions in response to trends in volume, quality, and customer satisfaction.
  • Own the service experience for Betterment's highest-value customers, using feedback and contact data to build practices that go beyond issue resolution and make these clients feel genuinely valued.
  • Serve as an escalation point for complex and/or difficult client conversations.
  • Collaborate closely with CX, Operations, Compliance, Product, Engineering and the CFP® teams to improve cross-team partnerships, ticket routing, new initiatives and customer outcomes.

What We’re Looking For

  • People management experience leading customer-facing teams in financial services, CX, or operations, ideally in a licensed environment.
  • FINRA Series 65 or equivalent (Series 66 , CFP®)
  • Proven coaching and performance management skills in a metric-driven support org (SLAs, CSAT/NPS, QA, and operational KPIs).
  • Experience with modern service and CRM tools (e.g., Zendesk, telephony/CCaaS platforms, Salesforce/CRM) and comfort learning new systems quickly.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication, strong cross-functional collaboration, and the ability to lead through change in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

Group Product Manager, Broker Dealer

BettermentBetterment HQ - New York City
["Full-time"]Not specifiedApr 2, 2026

About Betterment

Betterment is a leading, technology-driven financial services company that offers investing, savings and retirement solutions for retail investors and investment advisors as well as financial wellness solutions, including a 401(k) for small and medium-sized businesses. Our team is passionate about our mission, to empower people to build wealth with confidence and ease.  We’re headquartered in NYC and offer hybrid NY-based positions (four days/ week in-office, with no required office days during the summer and winter holidays).

About the role

Betterment's mission is to empower people to do what's best for their money so that they can live better. As a Group Product Manager within the Broker/Dealer organization, you will own and shape the product strategy for our trading and market data systems. Together, these domains underpin the every day management of over $55 billion in client assets across three investing lines of business. Your mandate spans all three of the Broker/Dealer's core priorities:

  • Enable Growth - We must enable our business lines to ship new revenue-generating products that delight our customers.
  • Maximize Efficiency - We strive to make our software better and build automation to prevent mission-critical teams from doing repetitive, manual workflows.
  • Minimize Risk - Our clients have trusted us with their savings, and the durability of our systems need to reflect that responsibility.

You’ll be responsible for setting the long-term vision for how Betterment builds and scales its back-end investing platforms to empower our clients to make the most of their money. This includes owning the strategic direction of core systems including Trade Execution, Portfolio Management, Security Master, and our broader Market Data infrastructure. In this player/coach role, you will manage and closely partner with PMs embedded in these domains and others across the organization. You’ll bring technical expertise in securities management and trading functions, strong judgment under ambiguity, and the communication skills to navigate both deep engineering conversations and executive-level strategic discussions.

This role is based out of our NYC office. For jobs based out of our NYC HQ, we require in office attendance Monday through Thursday, weekly. Below we've reflected the base salary range we would offer for this position. Actual salaries may vary depending on factors including but not limited to location, experience, and performance. The range listed is just one component of Betterment’s total compensation package for employees. 

  • New York City: $187,000 - $214,000

We offer a competitive equity package, health, dental and vision benefits, life and AD&D, short-term and long-term disability insurance, EAP, commuter and parking benefits FSA/HSA, and 401(k) with employer match as well as a flexible PTO policy. This job may also be eligible for variable compensation in the form of a company incentive bonus.

A day in the life

  • Oversee product teams responsible for our trading and market data functions, fundamental to our role as a trusted wealth manager for clients 
  • Deeply understand our target clients and serve as their advocate when making back-end decisions that impact the front-end experience
  • Define the multi-year vision for how our platform should evolve to meet growing business needs and architectural goals, including new asset class support, real-time data expansion, and added security classification models
  • Partner with engineering leadership and stakeholders to balance roadmap priorities across all three lines of business: retail clients, advised clients, and 401(k) participants  
  • Manage PM(s) embedded in the trading and market data domains, providing strategic direction, development feedback, and organizational context to help them succeed
  • Support engineering teams during standups, planning meetings, and retros
  • Develop success metrics for your product area, create tracking plans, and clearly communicate how prioritized work impacts those metrics.
  • Collaborate with numerous partners, such as Capital Markets, Custody, Investing, Operations, and Legal & Compliance, to navigate complex client situations and stay ahead of regulatory obligations

What we’re looking for

  • Product management experience at a financial services or financial technology company with a focus on back-end systems and applications
  • Deep expertise in and passion for financial concepts such as portfolio management, order routing, trade execution workflows, FIX protocol, and securities data management
  • Strong storytelling skills to distill advanced Broker/Dealer concepts into accessible information for partner organizations, stakeholders, and executives alike
  • Technical fluency: able to engage meaningfully with engineers on systems design, data modeling, and architectural tradeoffs 
  • Experience managing or mentoring other PMs, with a track record of growing product talent and maintaining strategic coherence across a multi-team domain
  • Creative problem-solving skills to deliver innovative functionality within regulatory and technical constraints.
  • A self-starter with proven success in launching products in collaboration with a broad set of stakeholders

This role is an early-stage opportunity to help define what great TPM practice looks like at the intersection of many of Betterment's most technically complex domains — broker-dealer infrastructure, quantitative research, and investor-facing products — at a time when the division is executing its most ambitious roadmap yet.

  • Ability to independently manage multiple concurrent workstreams, maintaining structure and follow-through to ensure details, decisions, and commitments are met
  • Demonstrated focus on execution, with experience streamlining workflows, improving delivery rhythms, and reducing operational friction 
  • Ability to build alignment around structured execution practices by helping teams build intrinsic buy-in on practical value of clarity in scope, ownership, and sequencing
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to translate between technical and non-technical stakeholders and tailor messaging to the audience and context
  • Proven ability to collaborate effectively across multi-disciplinary teams, building trust and driving alignment in support of shared delivery goals
  • Curiosity and a growth mindset, with interest in developing technical program management skills and deepening domain knowledge over time

Qualifications

  • 3+ years of experience in project and program management or delivery operations in software development or investment management space 
  • Experience supporting investment products or platforms in a regulated environment and downstream impacts on reporting, operations, and regulatory obligations

You’ll partner closely with Product, Operations, Compliance/Legal, Risk, and other engineering leaders to scale our platform, uplevel how we work, and support Betterment’s broader investing and trading strategy.

  • Build and sustain a healthy, high-performing culture grounded in accountability, constructive feedback, and strong coaching loops.
  • Partner with Product and other stakeholders on prioritization, sequencing, and tradeoffs across new features, risk work, and KTLO, and be accountable for outcomes, not just activity, across the BD roadmap.
  • Ensure teams deliver iteratively and predictably under real-world constraints, with fewer surprises and clearer visibility into progress.
  • Partner with Principal Engineers and senior leadership to shape and ratify major engineering decisions, including replatforming efforts, key integrations, and large-scale refactors.
  • Define, uphold, and evolve engineering standards appropriate for regulated, high-stakes systems: covering observability, reliability, test strategy, and change management.
  • Build strong, trust-based relationships with Product, Operations, Investing, Compliance, Legal, and other cross-functional partners.
  • Develop a deep leadership bench and succession plans across your org by hiring, developing, and coaching Engineering Managers and Staff+ ICs, giving them the context, autonomy, and feedback they need to grow.
