What you'll do We're looking for a Product Manager, Risk to lead our new Risk Builder squad within the Biz Ops tribe. Risk is one of the highest-leverage areas in Clara’s product portfolio; getting credit lines, identity verification, and fraud signals right is what allows us to scale rapidly across LatAm without increasing losses. As the Product Manager for this lean, high-ownership squad, you will report to the Group Product Manager and partner directly with a senior engineer, Credit Risk, Fraud, Finance, and Data Science teams. You will own the full credit lifecycle from a product perspective—balancing high-velocity execution with strict risk mitigation. Your primary
responsibilities will include: Owning the entire Risk product surface across both Acquisition and Portfolio Management, including onboarding risk checks, credit line increases/decreases, and internal tools for the Fraud Risk Operations team. Managing the integration layer with critical Credit and Fraud Risk vendors (Decisioning Engines, Credit Bureaus, SIFT, and ID Validation Vendors), mapping gaps, and making high-impact build vs. buy decisions. Translating complex risk model outputs into seamless product experiences by collaborating closely with Data Science and Credit Risk teams to design around model uncertainty. Defining and tracking core business metrics , including approval rates, fraud loss rates, credit utilization, credit line adjustment accuracy, and time-to-decision. Accelerating product delivery by writing clear PRDs, managing the product backlog, and driving cross-team alignment without relying on unnecessary meetings. Building no-code/low-code solutions and automating workflows using tools like N8N or Oscilar. Embracing a builder mindset by leveraging AI tools like Cursor, Claude Code, or v0 to prototype concepts, making straightforward code or configuration changes, and self-serving your own analytics dashboards.
