As a Senior Product Manager for DeFi at Mysten Labs, you own and grow our first-party DeFi products across DeepBook, DeepBook Predict, and the DeepBook app. You sit at the center of our effort to make Sui a leading venue for on-chain finance, working across product, engineering, design, legal, marketing, business development, ecosystem partners, market participants, and institutional users to turn product strategy into shipped experiences and measurable adoption.
What you'll do
- Own product strategy, roadmap, and execution for first-party DeFi products across DeepBook, DeepBook Predict, and the DeepBook app.
- Manage and grow product lines from early product discovery through launch, iteration, and scaled adoption.
- Define, track, and operationalize core product metrics, including liquidity depth, routed volume, active users, conversion, retention, capital efficiency, and institutional usage.
- Work closely with engineering and design to translate user, partner, and market needs into clear requirements and high-quality product experiences.
- Partner with business development, ecosystem, marketing, legal, and external teams to bring products to market responsibly and effectively.
- Build trusted relationships with DeFi protocols, market makers, wallets, aggregators, liquidity providers, institutional users, and other ecosystem participants.
- Identify product opportunities that make Sui easier and more compelling to use for financial applications.
- Help convert users and partners into active on-chain behavior, not just interest or pipeline.
- Develop product narratives, launch plans, and feedback loops that connect product usage to business outcomes.
What you bring
- 5+ years of product management experience, ideally in crypto, DeFi, fintech, trading, financial infrastructure, developer platforms, or another highly technical product area.
- A strong technical background, either as a former engineer or through demonstrated ability to work deeply with engineering teams and reason through technical tradeoffs.
- A strong understanding of finance and financial concepts as they relate to DeFi, including liquidity, market structure, risk, yield, capital efficiency, and user incentives.
- Fluency in DeFi.
- The ability to communicate clearly with customers, partners, and internal teams, including understanding user needs and converting them into product decisions.
- Strong analytical instincts and comfort building dashboards, experiments, and product operating rhythms.
- Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to turn ambiguous product areas into crisp strategy, execution plans, and decisions.
Nice to have
- Experience building or scaling exchanges, order books, trading products, prediction markets, wallets, aggregators, lending products, vaults, or institutional financial products.
- Familiarity with Sui, Move, or object-based blockchain architectures.
