As a Senior Product Manager for Exchange Trading at Crypto.com, you own the U.S. futures and regulated derivatives roadmap for professional and power traders. You report directly to the VP of Exchange Product and have full autonomy over prioritization, tradeoffs, and launch sequencing. Your mandate is to make U.S. futures trading a default desk for your target traders, shipping product at the pace a growth-mode FCM demands, with outcomes that show up in volume, retention, and product velocity.
What you'll do
- Own the U.S. Exchange trading and futures roadmap end to end. You set milestones, sequence work, resolve cross-team dependencies, and sign off on everything that ships.
- Ship futures products traders actually use. You decide which contracts, workflows, and tools come next and which ideas don't make the cut. Ownership means delivering outcomes traders feel when they manage risk, not just shipping features.
- Bring DCM and FCM fluency into product decisions. You translate how designated contract markets and futures commission merchants work (margins, clearing, order lifecycle, ops constraints) into product that scales without becoming a compliance nightmare after launch.
- Operate at growth-mode pace. You prioritize ruthlessly, cut scope, and ship when volume and urgency are both rising.
- Partner across risk, compliance, engineering, and operations. You align stakeholders around clear outcomes, surface regulatory and operational constraints early, and don't wait for someone else to figure out the FCM part.
- Talk to traders like a peer. You run research and feedback loops with direct questions about how they enter, manage, and exit futures positions. You distinguish what traders say from what their behavior reveals.
- Own the numbers. You instrument what matters, size opportunities, and prioritize without waiting for analysis to be handed to you. Your work shows up in volume, engagement, and ship cadence.
What you bring
- DCM and/or FCM futures product experience, or FCM growth-mode operator experience. You have owned or shipped futures and derivatives product in a DCM or FCM context, or worked inside an FCM in a fast-paced growth mode and can walk through what you owned, what broke under scale, and how you responded.
- Lead-level product ownership of a complex trading or markets product surface end to end, with a concrete example of when dependencies broke down and what you did to still ship.
- Futures and markets fluency. You know contract specs, margins, order types, position lifecycle, and how professional traders actually trade futures. You can explain what makes futures UX and workflow great versus frustrating.
- Evidence of shipping under constraint. You can point to a launch where regulatory, clearing, risk, or ops constraints were real and you still delivered a trader-usable product.
- Cross-functional leadership without title theater. You align engineering, risk, compliance, and operations around outcomes and escalate only what must escalate.
- Data ownership. You instrument your own funnel and volume drivers, size opportunities, and prioritize without waiting for analysis to be handed to you.
Nice to have
- Prior exchange, brokerage, or advanced trading platform PM work in crypto or traditional markets.
- Institutional or pro-trader product experience.
- Hands-on futures trading or daily use of the products you ship.
- Experience standing up or scaling U.S.-regulated futures distribution (FCM onboarding, DCM listings, margin products).
- Design sensibility for dense trading UIs. You can evaluate hierarchy, density, and interaction cost with specifics.
- AI-native workflow. You use AI tools to move faster with human-in-the-loop judgment.
