Senior Manager, Product Management- Associate Experience

Company: Discover Financial Services
Location: Schiller Park
Posted on: March 17, 2026

Job Description:

The Associate Experience Endpoints team sits at the intersection of security, user experience, and platform engineering, building the technology foundation that enables 70,000 Capital One associates to do their best work every day. We own the complete associate device and software experience: the laptops, phones, and tablets our teams use, plus the authentication, security, and software discovery platforms that run on them. Our mission is simple but critical: ruthlessly reduce friction in the associate technology experience while maintaining world-class security. We’re building product-led solutions that balance security with productivity: zero-trust authentication that doesn’t interrupt workflow, enterprise software discovery that anticipates associate needs before they ask, and mobile device strategies that respect both corporate security and personal use. This isn’t about writing JIRA tickets for incremental UI tweaks—it’s about building platforms, negotiating with vendors, influencing cybersecurity policy, and fundamentally reimagining how 70,000 people interact with technology at work. We’re standing up a new team from scratch, which means you’ll have extraordinary autonomy to define problems, build roadmaps, and drive measurable impact. You’ll work directly with cybersecurity leadership, engineering directors, legal, compliance, and executive stakeholders who are hungry for product thinking in a space that’s never had it. If you’re energized by ambiguous, complex problems; if you believe internal platforms deserve the same rigor as customer-facing products; if you want to prove that security and great user experience aren’t mutually exclusive—this is your team. We value platform thinkers over feature factories, people who can say no with data over order-takers, and PMs who see reducing 10 minutes of daily friction for 70,000 associates as 12,000 hours returned to the business every single day.
