Full Job Description
This role is based out of our London office 🇬🇧 We are an office-first company & believe great products are made when we are together. ABOUT STACKS Stacks is building an AI-native platform that reinvents how modern finance teams run the monthly close. The opportunity is massive: every growing company depends on accurate, timely financial data, yet most are still operating with tools and workflows built for a different era. In just two years, we’ve grown from a team of 2 to 30+ and are on a rapid trajectory. We’ve raised a $23m Series A led by Lightspeed Venture Partners https://stacks.ai/resources/stacks-raises-23-million-to-reinvent-finance-operations-with-agentic-ai, and we were recently recognised as one of Harmonic’s Hottest Startups of 2026 https://harmonic.ai/hot-25-companies/q2-2026. We’re already trusted by leading European scale-ups including Pleo, Freetrade, and Motorway. Our team is a blend of finance, product, and technical experts from top-tier companies like Uber, Plaid, Miro, Mollie, and Bunq, united by the drive to create a game-changing solution. We’re a team that is deeply customer-obsessed, plays to win, and isn’t afraid to take big, bold bets. We move fast, hold a high bar, and are committed to growing together as we scale. ABOUT THE ROLE Stacks is hiring a Product Lead to own and build out one of our most strategically important product areas from the ground up. This isn't a traditional PM role. We're looking for someone who thinks and operates like a founder — someone who will take full ownership of a product area, drive it to product-market fit, and create the commercial momentum to get it to its first million in revenue. You'll be the connective tissue across GTM, engineering, design, customer success, and external stakeholders. You'll go deep on customer problems, set the strategic direction, and move with pace and urgency to make it happen. We're looking for a hyper-ambitious builder with sharp product instincts, first-principles thinking,
