Baselayer is rebuilding the identity and verification layer for American business banking. The company has built the most complete business graph in America by fusing public records, IRS data, sanctions lists, web signals, and fraud telemetry from 2,200+ financial institutions, achieving 98% match rates in under two years—compared to legacy credit bureaus that took 50 years to reach 60%. Trusted by over 20% of US financial institutions including FIS, Rho, and Socure, Baselayer's infrastructure is expanding beyond fintech into gig platforms, marketplaces, AI companies, and commerce infrastructure. As Baselayer's first dedicated Senior Product Manager, you will report directly to the GM of Agentic Economy and own the creation, design, and full scoping of new products that expand Baselayer beyond financial institutions into new verticals where business identity is broken. You will define what gets built, why it matters, and what success looks like—writing the roadmap rather than inheriting one. The role is hands-on and split between zero-to-one product definition and disciplined execution on existing products. You will write detailed product specifications and wireframes, partner closely with design and engineering, attend engineering standups, and own the existing product surface by setting priorities, sequencing the roadmap, and making daily decisions that keep the team shipping the right features. Key responsibilities include: leading the scoping of new products targeting verticals beyond finance from initial thesis through detailed PRD; translating market opportunity into product requirements (target users, core workflows, success metrics, scope boundaries); building alignment artifacts (PRDs, one-pagers, wireframes, decision logs, launch criteria); writing clear specs that engineers can build from without extensive follow-up; producing wireframes and flow diagrams that make tradeoffs concrete; partnering with design on user experience; owning roadmap prioritization and sequencing; and defining success metrics and launch criteria. This is a foundational infrastructure role at an inflection point. The graph is built and proven; the hardest problems ahead include graph embeddings, fraud propagation models across business networks, real-time traversal at sub-100ms latency, and expanding the identity layer into every platform that needs to trust a business.
