Product Manager Lead
Location: Remote / Hybrid (North America)
Role Overview
We are seeking a Product Manager Lead to elevate product thinking, execution discipline, and customer-centricity across our trading ecosystem—including our futures prop business, trading platform, and introducing broker (IB).
This is not a domain expert role. Instead, we are looking for a world-class product practitioner—someone trained in modern product management (e.g., high-performing digital organizations)—who can coach, challenge, and uplevel a team of domain-heavy PMs.
You will own product quality, alongside product content—bringing structure, clarity, and velocity to teams that already understand the business deeply.
What You’ll Do
- Lead and Elevate Product Management
- Manage and mentor a team of 2–3 Product Managers across:
- Futures Prop Trading
- Trading Platform (Fintevo)
- Introducing Broker (IB)
- Instill best-in-class product practices (problem definition, discovery, prioritization, validation)
- Raise the bar on product thinking, not just delivery
- Drive Product Excellence (Craft > Coordination)
- Ensure teams are solving the right problems, not just shipping features
- Enforce rigorous:
- Problem framing
- Customer segmentation
- Hypothesis-driven development
- Outcome-based roadmapping
- Move teams away from “feature factories” toward impact-driven product development
- Partner Deeply with Engineering & Design
- Work closely with Engineering leadership to ensure:
- Clear tradeoffs between speed, quality, and scalability
- Tight execution loops (especially in high-pressure trading environments)
- Champion a build-measure-learn culture, even in complex systems (trading, execution, payments)
- Create Clarity Across Complex Domains
- Translate across:
- Trading workflows (execution, margin, risk, market data)
- Customer journeys (onboarding → funding → trading → scaling)
- Help PMs simplify complexity into clear product narratives and priorities
- Establish Operating Rhythm
- Own product rituals:
- Weekly product reviews
- Monthly planning cycles (if operating in sprint-based model)
- Clear prioritization frameworks across teams
- Bring consistency and accountability to product execution
- Influence Leadership
- Act as a thought partner to the COO, and CEO
- Push back when needed—grounded in data, customer insight, and product principles
- Help leadership make better product decisions faster
What We’re Looking For
Core Product Leadership
- 7–12 years in product management, with experience leading PMs
- Proven track record at high-performing digital product companies (e.g., Airbnb, Netflix, Stripe, Uber)
- Deep understanding of modern product frameworks (Reforge-style thinking, growth loops, experimentation, etc.)
Product Craft (Non-Negotiable)
- Exceptional at:
- Problem definition
- Customer insight generation
- Prioritization under ambiguity
- Driving measurable outcomes
- Strong bias toward clarity and simplicity in complex environments
Leadership & Coaching
- Experience managing and developing PMs with varying strengths
- Ability to coach without taking over
- Comfortable leading strong-willed, domain-heavy teams
Execution Strength
- Can operate in high-velocity, imperfect environments
- Comfortable balancing:
- Tactical delivery needs
- Strategic product direction
Nice to Have (Not Required)
- Experience in:
- Trading platforms, brokerage, fintech, or prop trading
- Market data, execution systems, or payments
- Familiarity with regulatory environments (NFA, CFTC, etc.)
What Success Looks Like
- PMs become sharper, more structured, and more outcome-driven
- Product shifts from reactive execution → intentional strategy
- Clear alignment across:
- Prop business
- Platform
- IB strategy
Why This Role Matters
We already have strong domain expertise. What we need is someone to bring product discipline and excellence—to turn a capable team into a high-performing product organization.
Compensation
- Competitive base performance bonus
