• Define product standards for high-information-density, high-frequency interaction, and mission-critical stability, and drive engineering teams to deliver against those standards
• Build the workflows professional traders live in, including direct order placement and modification from charts, visual stop-loss/take-profit management, conditional orders, and keyboard-first execution
• Drive the design of cross-exchange position aggregation, leg-level hedging, and cross-venue execution, with the goal of creating a best-in-class trading experience
• Track professional-user retention, trading conversion, product engagement, and execution efficiency, and take ownership of the safety, stability, and overall user experience across the trading journey

• Strong product and interaction design capabilities for complex, information-dense interfaces, with a deep understanding of how professional traders analyze markets and execute trades
• Strong product ownership and judgment: able to set direction, break down complex problems, defend professional product standards when opinions differ, and drive execution across teams

Nice to have

• Experience with cross-exchange or cross-market execution, such as professional brokerage terminals, market aggregation platforms, or internal trading systems built for quantitative trading teams
• Experience with extensible indicators or trader-facing scripting frameworks, such as systems similar to TradingView Pine Script
