🏢 About GoodLeap

GoodLeap is a fintech leader democratizing sustainable home upgrades through $27 billion in financing and AI-driven tools since 2018. The company uniquely combines payments technology, financing products, and SaaS capabilities specifically for the home improvement trades sector, creating a comprehensive ecosystem for contractors and homeowners. Working here offers the opportunity to impact both environmental sustainability and financial accessibility in a rapidly growing market.

About This Role

This Senior Product Marketing Manager role involves owning go-to-market strategies for B2B payments technology and financing products, with growing responsibility for new SaaS platform capabilities for home improvement trades. You'll lead cross-functional launches and adoption campaigns while enabling Sales and Account teams with messaging frameworks and competitive positioning. The role is impactful because it directly drives adoption, activation, and revenue growth for products that help contractors access financing and payment tools.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might involve collaborating with product teams on new SaaS platform capabilities for contractors, developing messaging frameworks for upcoming payment product launches, and analyzing adoption metrics for financing products. You'd likely spend time creating competitive positioning materials for sales enablement and planning cross-functional campaigns to drive product adoption among home improvement trade businesses.
