Responsibilities
- Own the product roadmap for the Active Trader segment across TITAN X, HUB, and Mobile, with deep focus on complex options strategies, futures, and derivatives tooling
- Define and prioritize features that drive meaningful improvements in trade volume, client retention, and the overall experience for high-value active traders
- Conduct ongoing customer discovery with VIP active traders and translate insights into well-defined product requirements
- Develop a clear point of view on what separates professional-grade trading tools from consumer-grade experiences — and build to that standard
- Monitor product KPIs and business outcomes; use data to inform prioritization and flag risks early
- Partner with engineering and design to drive from concept to delivery — acting as the connective tissue between business goals and technical execution
- Work closely with marketing, CX, compliance, and risk to ensure product launches are coordinated and well-supported across the organization
- Engage with senior stakeholders and executive leadership to communicate roadmap strategy, surface trade-offs, and align on priorities
- Evaluate competitive developments in the active trading and fintech space and proactively incorporate insights into the product strategy
- Partner with compliance and risk on regulatory considerations, particularly as they relate to derivatives and options product development
- Provide direction and mentorship to PMs on the Active Trader team; model strong product thinking and execution standards
- Contribute to a culture of speed, precision, and continuous improvement in how the PM team operates
- Leverage AI tools as part of your everyday workflow to move faster, synthesize research, and improve the quality of your outputs
Skills
- Strong command of PM fundamentals: discovery, prioritization, road mapping, KPI definition, stakeholder communication, and go-to-market execution
- Demonstrated ability to ship software features in an agile environment with measurable business impact
- Experience working directly with engineering teams on technical trade-offs — you can have a meaningful conversation about API design, data models, and system constraints
- Comfortable building and using self-service analytics to measure product performance; data fluency is expected, not optional
- Clear, precise written communication — your ability to articulate intent directly determines what gets built
- Deep, working knowledge of active trading with meaningful expertise in multi-leg options strategies, equity derivatives, and/or futures
- Familiarity with broker-dealer platform conventions, order entry UX, risk management tools, and post-trade analytics
- Intuition for what VIP-level active trader UX looks like and what distinguishes professional-grade tools from consumer-grade experiences
- Ability to write accurate, detailed product requirements without relying on a subject matter expert for every decision
- Experience operating at a senior level with exposure to executive stakeholders and cross-functional leadership
- Ability to influence without authority across design, engineering, marketing, and compliance
- Organized and focused under pressure; able to manage multiple product tracks simultaneously without losing precision
- Growth-oriented mindset — you proactively stay ahead of industry trends, competitive shifts, and evolving client needs
- Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, or related field
- 10+ years of experience in product management, with a track record of owning complex, customer-facing products end to end with a focus on active trading or financial services
- Personal trading experience in options or futures — market participation creates intuition that is hard to teach
- Prior experience in a senior PM role with some people management or mentorship responsibility
- Familiarity with Amplitude, Databricks, or similar analytics platforms for self-service product measurement
- Experience at a broker-dealer, trading platform, or fintech company serving professional or active trader segments
