Had a couple of final interviews. Should I wait to hear back? Or apply pressure with a follow-up? Does that even work? I don’t want them to feel relaxed and continue to interview other candidates, since right now there are plenty of options out there.

So confused by your post. You don’t want the employer to “feel relaxed and continue to interview other candidates”? What does that even mean?! Yes, follow up. No, don’t “apply pressure”. Mention that you’re excited about the role, like a normal person. Hopefully you nailed your interview. Short of that, any company interviewing right now has a ton of options and will be doing their due diligence to interview a number of candidates.

Advice on applying to PM jobs with 1yr APM experience?

I’ve been working as an APM at my current company for 1yr, and have basically been doing the work of a full blown PM the entire time.
