You will be expected to navigate significant ambiguity and technical complexity, make thoughtful tradeoffs, and translate complex problems into simple, scalable solutions.

What You Will Do

• Develop a deep understanding of advisor workflows and the systems, data, and processes that support them to identify high-impact opportunities for simplification, consolidation, automation, and productivity improvement
• Identify and frame complex product opportunities, establish a clear point of view on priorities, and influence investment decisions based on advisor value, business impact, technical considerations, and strategic alignment
• Own and evolve a multi-horizon product roadmap, balancing near-term outcomes with longer-term platform, architecture, and capability investments
• Partner closely with engineering and architecture leaders to understand system capabilities, technical constraints, dependencies, and tradeoffs and use that understanding to shape product strategy
• Lead product discovery for ambiguous and complex problem spaces, using advisor insights, behavioral and operational data, market research, and technical understanding to determine where and how to invest
• Influence senior leaders and cross-functional partners, building alignment across organizations with differing priorities and perspectives
• Lead complex cross-functional initiatives spanning product, engineering, operations, business, risk, compliance, and legal
• Anticipate and proactively manage cross-product and cross-team dependencies, risks, and tradeoffs that could affect product outcomes
• Establish clear measures of success and use advisor outcomes, adoption, productivity, operational efficiency, and product performance to evaluate investments and inform future priorities
• Challenge existing processes, technology patterns, and assumptions and identify opportunities to simplify the advisor and technology ecosystem
• Raise the bar for product management by bringing strong product thinking, structured decision-making, and customer-centric practices to the broader team
• Help strengthen product practices and decision-making across the organization

What You Will Bring

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
• 3 - 5 years of product management or relevant experience, with demonstrated ownership of complex technology products, platforms, or capabilities
• Exceptional product judgment, with demonstrated ability to uncover underlying user problems, distinguish needs from requested solutions, and make difficult prioritization and investment decisions
• Strong technical fluency and curiosity, with the ability to reason about system interactions, data flows, integrations, APIs, dependencies, architecture considerations, and technical tradeoffs and engage credibly with engineering and architecture partners
• Demonstrated ability to establish product vision and strategy and translate that strategy into actionable roadmaps and measurable outcomes
• Experience leading complex, cross-functional initiatives involving multiple teams, systems, stakeholders, and dependencies
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to combine quantitative data, qualitative insights, business context, and technical considerations to make product decisions
• Demonstrated ability to operate independently in ambiguous environments, establish structure and direction, and drive decisions without relying on prescribed solutions
• Exceptional stakeholder management and influencing skills, including experience navigating competing priorities and driving alignment with senior leaders
• Excellent written and verbal communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to make complex product and technology topics accessible to different audiences
• Experience operating effectively in highly regulated or operationally complex environments

• Experience defining product strategy across multiple interconnected products, systems, or capabilities
• Experience building products within financial services, wealth management, retirement, or another highly regulated industry
