Job Description
Product Manager responsible for trading experiences on Breakout Prop and Kraken Prop. Collaborate with teams to develop top-tier trading UX in the crypto ecosystem.
Responsibilities:
- Drive the trading experience roadmap within your domain — sequencing, requirements, and delivery — in close partnership with the Head of Product
- Define what best-in-class prop trading UX looks like: fast, intuitive, and built for serious derivatives traders
- Drive execution on near-term priorities and terminal parity with the best in market (Hyperliquid and beyond)
- Lead the product strategy for agentic and API trading — giving power users programmatic access to prop capital
- Partner with Kraken Pro engineering to build a trading experience that feels native to the crypto ecosystem while serving the specific needs of prop traders
- Work closely the risk team to translate execution nuance into product requirements — understanding A-book vs B-book mechanics, drawdown rules, and how they shape UX
- Set the bar for what "done" means on trading features — requirements, edge cases, acceptance criteria, and post-ship iteration
Requirements:
- 3-6+ years in senior product management, with significant time owning a trading or execution product
- Deep understanding of derivatives trading — perps, futures, margin, leverage, order types, risk parameters
- Experience building for professional or semi-professional traders who have high expectations and low tolerance for friction
- Track record of shipping complex, technically demanding features end-to-end with high quality
- Ability to write detailed, unambiguous product requirements that engineers can act on without constant clarification
- Strong opinions on trading UX — you've used the best terminals out there and you know what good looks like
- Comfortable in the technical weeds — you can read API docs, understand data contracts, and have an informed opinion on architectural tradeoffs
- Experience working on products with real-time data requirements (streaming prices, live P&L, order state)
- Familiarity with trading infrastructure concepts — order routing, execution layers, risk engines, position monitoring
- Bonus: experience with agentic workflows, algorithmic trading, or API-first product design
- Senior enough to own a domain with minimal direction — you set the agenda, you don't wait for one
- Strong written communicator — your PRDs, tickets, and async updates are clear and complete
- Experience working across multiple engineering teams and navigating cross-functional dependencies
- Trader empathy — you understand what it feels like to have a position open and need the product to work perfectly
- Crypto-native or deeply curious — you understand the space, the culture, and why prop trading matters here.
Benefits:
- Bonus program
- Equity program
- Wellness allowance
- Health insurance
