Product Manager, Consumer Apps
Job Overview
The ZBD app lets users jump into a universe of games and apps, connect with friends and earn Bitcoin while having fun. ZBD also empowers developers to embed bitcoin payments into video games and applications, such as podcasting and music streaming. ZBD’s unique proposition enables these partner developers to better monetize their games and apps by allowing users to receive micro-rewards for actions taken in the game or app. ZBD provides this functionality by leveraging Bitcoin and the Lightning Network protocol.
As we grow, we’re expanding the ZBD app from a rewards-first experience into a more comprehensive consumer offering. Our vision is to offer users a fun, engaging, and secure way to manage value — combining rewards, embedded offers, and a powerful wallet into a single, mobile-first experience.
We’re looking for a Product Manager to lead the evolution of the ZBD app. You’ll own the core user experience and the first-party offerwall, and help us expand our offering into payments and beyond. You’ll also play a critical role in partnering across engineering, compliance, and business development to ensure that our product is scalable, secure, and commercially impactful.
The business comprises almost 70 employees – across development, marketing, compliance, operations, technology, customer success and customer support – from Los Angeles to New York, London, Amsterdam and São Paulo.
ZBD is a fully remote company. We hire, retain and develop the best talent from around the world, wherever s/he/they may choose to live. As a result, every member of the ZBD team must demonstrate an ability to work independently and thrive in a remote environment.
