I’m responsible for the Address Book. List of contacts first for Zelle, then bill pay, then maybe the whole bank. Two weeks in I think the primary customer problem is: “It’s annoying that I have to remember/re-enter contact info for people I’ve sent money to before.”

Eventually, yes. That’s using an old system that they want to replace

This could be 100x better and could become a real point of strength for the bank.

I’ll definitely talk to you about it soon. This is what I’m focused on initially. The contacts in Zelle, but plan is to build a scalable backend that can serve a lot of different purposes across the bank including bill pay next.pic.twitter.com/Py4UAwHHKs

I see so many opportunities here: 1. it's a network effect 2. it's a way to do sales outreach "your customer/vendor is using capital one bank and ...." 3. the system is so bad that there are low-hanging fruit improvements like a google-esque auto-complete Could keep going...

As far as employee roles go, product manager ain't bad. You get to do cool stuff that can have a HUGE effect on the company for which you work and you don't have to deal with the headaches of being an entrepreneur haha. Less personal upside tho!

Definitely the best job I’ve ever had. At startups you can get equity and have some more skin in the game, but founding is definitely the long term goal. I do get a 15% discount on the stock via the Employee Stock Purchase Program

If founding is really the long term goal you better get to grinding! I saw you like my post where I made that short list. No excuses!

Yup, nothing stopping me but me. I write down ideas all the time, and definitely haven’t had one that would meet Thiel’s 7 Questions, but should still just work on something.

That's a great attitude to have. Fwiw, I'm not the founder of paypal or uber or whatever, but here is how my businesses scored when I first founded them:
