About this role
About Chariot
Chariot is an AI-native consumer protection platform. We originate, underwrite, and resolve mass arbitration and class action claims at scale — turning “a company wronged you and you’ll never do anything about it” into real money back in people’s pockets. Our litigation engine (CaseGen) lets us run campaigns against household-name companies with a speed and unit economics the plaintiffs’ bar has never had.
Most consumers never learn they’re owed money, and the places where they’d most naturally find out — the fintech, credit, and personal-finance apps they already trust — aren’t surfacing it. The company that owns that embedded layer owns the category. That’s this role.
The role
You’ll build Chariot’s distribution flywheel: embedding claim eligibility and intake into the products where millions of eligible consumers already are — think a credit-monitoring app, a neobank, a cashback or tax product surfacing “You may be owed $X from [campaign] — start your claim” inline, the way Credit Karma surfaces financial products. You own this end to end across three hats:
-
Product partnerships — define the surface partners actually integrate: the eligibility API, the intake SDK/co-branded flows, identity/data matching, claim-status webhooks. You’re the voice of the partner in our roadmap, working hand in hand with engineering so what we ship is genuinely embeddable.
-
GTM — build the offer and the motion: the economic model (rev-share, referral, co-marketing), the partner value prop (a new revenue line, member value, retention), the pitch, and the playbook that makes the second and tenth partner faster than the first. You’ll run both a self-serve/PLG lane for smaller integrators and a high-touch enterprise lane for the Credit-Karma-scale partners.
-
Channel — source, structure, negotiate, and close the partners themselves, then drive them to activation and real claimant volume. This is a carry-the-number seat, not a strategy seat.
What you’ll do
-
Land the first wave of lighthouse embedded partners across fintech, credit/identity monitoring, neobanks, cashback/loyalty, tax and financial-wellness, benefits/HR, and affinity platforms.
-
Shape the partner-facing product — eligibility checks, intake SDK, co-branded web flows, data/identity matching — in tight partnership with engineering, and own its roadmap.
-
Design the deal architecture: economics, data-sharing and compliance terms, attribution, and SLAs that are genuinely win-win.
-
Build the repeatable integration + economic model so onboarding a new partner goes from a bespoke project to a known path.
-
Stand up both motions — a lighter self-serve integration path and an enterprise motion for the largest partners — and instrument the funnel from intro to live volume.
-
Partner internally with legal/QC, ops, and campaign leads so distribution respects the realities of how claims are run and resolved.
-
Be the market-facing owner of distribution in investor, partner, and ecosystem conversations.
Who you are
-
You’ve built an ecosystem from zero. You’ve personally stood up an app/API/integration partner program and scaled it — not inherited a mature one. (Someone who’s taken a partner ecosystem from a handful to hundreds, or built an API/distribution business from scratch, is exactly right.)
-
You’re fluent in embedded and API-led distribution — SDKs, integrations, co-branded flows, channel and GSI programs — and you understand the product mechanics, not just the deal.
-
You span product, GTM, and BD naturally. You can sit with engineering on an API contract in the morning and negotiate rev-share with a partner’s CRO in the afternoon, and you see the 360° business on both sides of the table.
-
You have founder/operator DNA. You’ve built something (ideally founded and/or sold a company), you’re comfortable in ambiguity, and you default to action over process.
-
You run both PLG and SLG motions and know when each applies.
-
You’re a deal-maker — you structure win-win economics and close partnerships others think are impossible, with the follow-through to take them from signed to live.
-
You’re relationship-first and creative — people trust you fast, and you find the non-obvious structure that unlocks a deal.
-
10+ years in partnerships/GTM, several at the senior/leadership level, with real early-stage reps.
Bonus
-
Distribution experience in fintech or consumer finance (the Credit-Karma-adjacent surface) or another regulated, consumer-money-movement space.
-
Legaltech / regtech exposure, or comfort operating where compliance is a first-class constraint.
-
Data partnerships / identity matching experience, or two-sided marketplace / network-effects distribution.
Logistics
-
Location: Remote (US) / Hybrid (NYC, DC, SF, LA)
-
Comp: Competitive base + meaningful early equity + partnership-outcome-linked upside.
-
Reports to: CEO.
