🚀 Chariot is a charitable payments company that’s revolutionizing the philanthropic financial system. We believe more money needs to move to nonprofits faster, so we are building tools that activate more philanthropic dollars and transform nonprofit operations to be more efficient.
We are currently backed by YC, Maveron, Spark Capital, SV Angel, and top-tier angel investors like Mike Massaro, Adam Grant, and Angela Duckworth. Our team is made up of passionate and talented individuals with prior work experience at Blackrock, Bain, Goldman Sachs, Palantir, and Forage (YC21).
🗽 We are fully in-person in New York City, which helps us maintain our extremely collaborative and caring team culture.
The Role
We're at a critical inflection point in our product journey. With dozens of implementations running simultaneously across our product, we need someone who can own customer onboarding while transforming these experiences into scalable, self-service solutions. Our new product is being built in real-time, requiring someone who can diplomatically manage client expectations while gathering crucial insights.
This role is uniquely positioned at the intersection of partner success and product development—you'll spend 50% of your time ensuring successful implementations and 50% translating field insights into product improvements. We're looking for someone who sees every implementation challenge as a product opportunity and can help us build toward true product-led growth.
- Accelerate implementation velocity Reduce time-to-value. Drive faster integration launches for key nonprofit partners (E.g. American Cancer Society, Susan G. Komen) and fundraising platforms (E.g. GoFundMe)
- Drive product-led growth through implementation insights Identify patterns from implementations and translate them into actionable product improvements that reduce the need for hands-on support.
- Maximize customer value realization For DAFpay, drive measurable donation volume increases; for this new product, ensure clients experience tangible workflow improvements quickly post-onboarding.
- Build scalable implementation systems Create repeatable processes, documentation, and tools that allow us to handle growing volume without proportionally growing the team. Develop and maintain API documentation and training materials for internal and external use
- Navigate product development with live clients Successfully onboard clients while the product is actively being built, gathering critical feedback while maintaining client confidence and satisfaction.
