From the original posting

As Mercury grows, our revenue platforms increasingly sit at the intersection of product launches, data systems, go-to-market motion, and external vendors. When everything is important, the real risk isn’t lack of effort — it’s loss of momentum.

We’re hiring a Technical Program Manager for Revenue Technology to ensure that complex, multi-team initiatives actually move: in the right order, with the right dependencies surfaced, and with real progress visible week over week.

This is not a status-meeting role. This is a technical, hands-on TPM who understands systems well enough to unblock work directly — whether that’s in Linear, Salesforce, data workflows, or coordination across Product, Engineering, Data, and Revenue.

In this role, you will report to the Head of Platforms & Infrastructure and play a critical role in protecting execution focus so specialized technical roles can operate at full effectiveness.

*Mercury is a fintech company, not an FDIC-insured bank. Banking services provided through Choice Financial Group and Column N.A., Members FDIC.

Here are some things you’ll do on the job:

  • Own delivery sequencing and execution momentum across Revenue Technology initiatives
  • Translate ambiguous goals into clear scopes, milestones, and dependency maps
  • Actively manage work in Linear and related tools, ensuring priorities are visible and intentional
  • Identify when work is blocked, drifting, over-scoped, or colliding — and intervene early
  • Partner closely with Solution Architecture, Data Strategy, Engineering, and Systems & Workflow Experience
  • Perform light hands-on technical work (configuration, stopgaps, tooling hygiene) to unblock progress
  • Absorb coordination load across Product, Engineering, Data Engineering, Data Science, Revenue, and vendors
  • Drive planning cycles anchored to Cosmic Objectives, not ad-hoc urgency
  • Make tradeoffs explicit and documented so teams can move without re-litigating decisions

You should have:

  • 5+ years experience as a Technical Program Manager, Technical PM, or equivalent role in a SaaS or fintech environment
  • Demonstrated ability to drive delivery across multi-team, cross-functional initiatives (Product, Engineering, Data, Revenue, vendors)
  • Strong technical fluency — able to reason about systems, data flows, integrations, and platform constraints
  • Hands-on experience managing work in tools like Linear, Jira, or similar, with a bias toward clarity and momentum
  • Proven ability to surface dependencies, sequence work, and intervene when execution is blocked or drifting
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, especially in ambiguous environments
  • Comfort performing light hands-on technical work (tool configuration, workflow setup, stopgap solutions)

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience supporting GTM, revenue, or customer lifecycle platforms
  • Familiarity with Salesforce, data platforms, or revenue tooling ecosystems
  • Experience operating within Agile / Kanban systems — with judgment about when to adapt them
  • Background working closely with architecture or platform engineering teams

The total rewards package at Mercury includes base salary, equity (stock options), and benefits.

Our salary and equity ranges are highly competitive within the SaaS and fintech industry and are updated regularly using the most reliable compensation survey data for our industry. New hire offers are made based on a candidate’s experience, expertise, geographic location, and internal pay equity relative to peers.
