About Lightyear

We’re on a mission to make investing better for everyone in Europe. More specifically, we’re making it light years better (sorry… we had to!). We’re combining multi-currency accounts with unlimited access to global markets so that everyone in Europe can invest without sneaky hidden fees or unnecessary barriers.

In just four years, we’ve gone from idea to fully regulated in both the UK and EU, launched across 25 countries, raised $58M, and built a 70+ strong team from Europe’s top fintechs and startups.

We’re backed by a stellar line-up of investors – including Lightspeed Venture Partners, Sir Richard Branson, Mosaic Ventures, NordicNinja, and some of Europe’s top founders like Taavet Hinrikus (Wise), Jaan Tallinn (Skype), and Markus Villig (Bolt).

TL;DR

Lightyear scaled from zero to $1B+ in customer assets in four years by obsessing over customer success. When customers win, we win.

As PM for Experience, you’ll do the figuring-out and the building: turn our system, regulatory setup, market reality, and customer mindset into crisp propositions - and ship them with quality and speed. This is a high ownership, high impact role, and your team will meaningfully improve the experience of European investors.

• Own the experience end-to-end: make investing simple and provide exceptional value for beginners and powerful for experts across web and mobile.
• Localise deeply: language, taxes, payments, onboarding, disclosures—a truly native feel in every country we serve.
• Deliver outcomes: raise activation, engagement, and trust through clarity, performance, and craft.

Our mission: We’re in the wealth-creation business. Whoever you are, wherever you are in Europe, Lightyear should be the best place to grow your money for a better future.

What you will do

• Figure it out → Ship it: Understand customer needs, regulatory realities, market landscape, and consumer insight into clear product propositions—then deliver them.
• Craft world-class journeys: own flows and details that build confidence and speed.
• Serve every skill level: build beginner pathways with guidance and guardrails, while keeping expert workflows fast and flexible—no bloat, just value.
• Localise for real markets: incorporate tax logic, languages, products, and UX localisation so the product feels native per country.
