Position Summary:   As a founding PM of the newly formed Innovation team, you will build and ship solutions with real complexity and scale to tens of thousands of clients. You will also play a key role in foundational decisions about architecture, design, systems, data, product, and business strategy. This is a rare opportunity to build product at the 0 to 1 stage, and ship it immediately to scale. You will work directly with Will Peng, Chief Innovation Officer — a former founder of a fintech company that raised $40M and exited in 2025. About Cerity Partners Cerity Partners is the one of the largest and fastest growing independent financial advisory firms, managing over $160+ billion in assets under management, and over $1 trillion assets under advisement. We serve high- and ultra-high-net-worth individuals and families, business owners, and institutions with comprehensive financial planning, investment, tax, and retirement solutions. Backed by growth capital from Genstar Capital, Warburg Pincus, and Lightyear Capital, Cerity Partners ranks in the top 10 RIA's in the country by Barron's. Founded in 2009, we are extremely entrepreneurial and feel we are still in the early innings. Our mission is to make every client steadier than we found them. We measure ourselves not by what we deliver, but by whether the people who trust us are better for it. Advice, service, and care do not bend to compensation, affiliation, or convenience — and they do not bend to the size of the client. We uphold the fiduciary standard at its highest levels. The Innovation Team at Cerity Partners Cerity Partners' Innovation Team is the firm's center of excellence for the strategy and deployment of technology and applied AI. We are combining the best of technology and professional services to build the future of financial services. We believe the biggest opportunity is in the application of AI to scaled, complex industries like wealth and investment management — to raise the bar for quality of service, in service to our clients. This is a rare opportunity to join a generational company at a key inflection point. We are extremely ambitious and entrepreneurial, and approach innovation with a "blank sheet of paper" mindset — so there will be no shortage of exciting technical challenges to work on. We approach every problem through the lens of experience and design, with the client at the center. Our team partners with colleagues across the entire business to understand workflows, and create cohesive experiences across the client, advisor, and colleague journey. Our vision is to build the new OS of wealth intelligence. We are building the entire AI stack — harness, context, memory, evals, agents, models, workflows, data, knowledge — both in applying it to wealth management, as well as in how we work and collaborate with each other. By fully leveraging the insights and institutional expertise of the firm, we will move the firm into a client-first, AI-native era. Primary Responsibilities: Own the end-to-end experience: The Innovation Team is highly autonomous, and you will be responsible for full user journeys and business goals, not just a silo. You will build the solution or partner with the best vendor — whatever is the best for the need — and integrate them into a cohesive platform. You will have the opportunity to build both 0-to-1, as well as scale products post-launch. Build in partnership with clients, advisors, and colleagues: Identify high value opportunities, understand their needs and root problems, map workflows, test prototypes and hypotheses, and build and advocate for the best experience. Establish foundational product strategy and process: The decisions you make will be the foundation of our product, client experience, advisor experience, and colleague experience. These are decisions that can drive business strategy, goals, differentiation, and prioritization. Build at the cutting edge of applied AI: Work across every part of the AI stack — harness, context, memory, evals, agents, models — both in applying it to wealth management, as well as in how we work and collaborate. Required Qualifications: Years of experience: Minimum of 6 years Financial services industry experience required - understanding of wealth management, investment advisory, or related financial services operations Demonstrated experience in AI tooling, models, harnesses, workflows Expertise and experience with Claude Code, Codex, or similar Skills & Competencies: You have a track record of outsized impact: Your impact extends beyond individual features. Your work has created broad, lasting results on the customer, your colleagues, and in the foundational systems that endure. You are a systems thinker: You are able to see the bigger picture and the patterns that emerge. You are able to consider decisions in the broader context, and know what are the most important factors to consider You have excellent product and business intuition: You know what decisions will have wide-ranging impact. You put experience and the user first. You know where to cut, and what is important. You lead with agency: You take initiative and move work forward independently. You navigate obstacles resourcefully while building the trust, alignment, and influence needed to mobilize others and amplify your impact. You move quickly with rigor: You have a bias towards action for learning. You balance speed and quality, demonstrating a high shipping velocity, rapid learning, and a hypothesis-driven approach. You thrive in ambiguity: You are energized by new, undefined, ambiguous spaces, and excel in shaping the right approach as the space changes quickly. You are humble and adaptable. You have a demonstrated record of creating and shipping real products—not simply operating within established systems. As a founding product manager, you will help define the systems themselves. You are passionate about AI: You have experience building and shipping AI agents and harnesses. You stay close to emerging capabilities, continually experimenting to identify where they create meaningful opportunity. You do your best work when collaborating with others: You love working with cross-functional teams, connecting feedback, workflows, and downstream implications to make coherent decisions across the organization.
