Product Manager

*This role requires a hybrid schedule in our Charlotte, NC office; Tuesday–Thursday in-office, Monday and Friday remote.* 

THE POSITION 

At LendingTree, our #1 core principle is to build truly outstanding products. We help people at incredibly important and complex times in their lives and strive to find breakthrough ways to surprise and delight them with insight and clarity. 

We are seeking a Product Manager to help build and scale our Partnerships Platform — the capabilities that power LendingTree experiences embedded in partner channels, products, and websites. You will work at the intersection of product, engineering, and business development to make it simple, fast, and reliable for partners to integrate with us and for LendingTree to manage and grow those relationships. 

You will collaborate with a small, focused engineering team and our business development team to define how partners integrate, how they are configured, how revenue is tracked, and how we scale from a handful of bespoke integrations to a repeatable, modern platform. 

This role is ideal for someone who is technically curious, comfortable working with external partners, and excited to build new capabilities in an environment with legacy systems and complex internal dependencies. 

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES 

• Define and own the product vision and roadmap for partner configuration and integration flows. 

• Identifies initiatives required to achieve the business and product vision, strategy and goals and also identifies/implements process improvements with little oversight    

• Work with engineering to evolve our current implementation into a more scalable, purpose-built platform. 

• Design simple, repeatable ways to configure and launch new partners (e.g., internal tools or configuration interfaces) instead of managing many manual tickets across multiple teams. 

• Learn how existing systems work and where constraints come from, and use that understanding to simplify and modernize our approach. 

Partner Integrations & Implementation 

• Partner with business development and external partners from deal signature through integration and launch. 

• Define clear implementation plans, milestones, and responsibilities to keep integrations on track. 

• Advocate for speed and quality in integrations; ensure we have a consistent, well-understood implementation process. 

• Work closely with long-tenured internal teams to navigate constraints and find realistic, forward-looking solutions. 

Revenue & Performance Reporting 

• Collaborate with analytics, finance, and engineering to define how we capture, attribute, and report revenue for partnerships. 

• Translate business needs (revenue share, performance metrics, partner reporting) into clear product requirements. 

• Help build reporting and monitoring that gives both LendingTree and partners visibility into performance. 

• Define and track key metrics related to partner performance, integration speed, and platform reliability, using data and experimentation to identify opportunities for improvement and to validate product decisions. 

 Cross-Functional Collaboration & Stakeholder Management 

• Define and clearly communicate a prioritized roadmap, securing alignment across teams with limited oversight. 

• Serve as a key connection point between engineering, business development, marketing, analytics, and operations. 

• Communicate clearly and proactively with stakeholders about priorities, trade-offs, and timelines. 

• Monitor key product and customer success metrics, share results, and turn insights into actionable next steps with minimal oversight. 

• Bring structure to ambiguous problems and align cross-functional teams around pragmatic solutions. 

• Helps others grow their industry and product management knowledge. 

 AI-Enabled Product Management 

• Use AI tools to speed up discovery, analysis, and communication (e.g., summarizing technical docs, exploring integration options, drafting partner communications). 

• Stay current on how AI can help us integrate faster, improve partner experiences, and manage complexity. 

QUALIFICATIONS 

• 3–6 years of experience in Product Management or a closely related role (e.g., partner/technical account management, solutions/implementation, or similar). 

• Experience working with external partners, clients, or stakeholders in a way that requires managing expectations, timelines, and outcomes. 

• Strong technical curiosity and comfort: 

• Able to understand API-based integrations, data flows, and high-level systems diagrams. 

• Comfortable working with engineers to navigate constraints and trade-offs. 

• Demonstrated ability to bring structure to ambiguous problem spaces and drive complex initiatives to completion. 

• Experience using data to inform decisions; familiarity with analytics tools and basic querying is a plus. 

• Strong communication skills, including the ability to interact with both technical teams and business executives. 

• Proven ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, results-oriented environment with legacy systems and competing priorities. 

• High ownership mindset: you take accountability for outcomes, not just tasks. 

• Comfort using AI tools in your day-to-day work (for learning, analysis, and communication). 

NICE-TO-HAVE 

• Experience in financial services, fintech, lead generation, or other highly regulated or data-intensive industries. 

• Experience with partner or B2B integrations, configuration platforms, or embedded experiences. 

• Familiarity with modern web technologies and integration patterns (e.g., web components, SDKs, APIs). 

• Prior experience working on products that support both internal users and external partners or clients.
