Product Manager Lead

Location: Remote / Hybrid (North America)

Role Overview

We are seeking a Product Manager Lead to elevate product thinking, execution discipline, and customer-centricity across our trading ecosystem—including our futures prop business, trading platform, and introducing broker (IB).

This is not a domain expert role. Instead, we are looking for a world-class product practitioner—someone trained in modern product management (e.g., high-performing digital organizations)—who can coach, challenge, and uplevel a team of domain-heavy PMs.

You will own product quality, alongside product content—bringing structure, clarity, and velocity to teams that already understand the business deeply.

What You’ll Do

1. Lead and Elevate Product Management

• Manage and mentor a team of 2–3 Product Managers across:
• Futures Prop Trading
• Trading Platform (Fintevo)
• Introducing Broker (IB)
• Instill best-in-class product practices (problem definition, discovery, prioritization, validation)
• Raise the bar on product thinking, not just delivery

1. Drive Product Excellence (Craft > Coordination)

• Ensure teams are solving the right problems, not just shipping features
• Enforce rigorous:
• Problem framing
• Customer segmentation
• Hypothesis-driven development
• Outcome-based roadmapping
• Move teams away from “feature factories” toward impact-driven product development

1. Partner Deeply with Engineering & Design

• Work closely with Engineering leadership to ensure:
• Clear tradeoffs between speed, quality, and scalability
• Tight execution loops (especially in high-pressure trading environments)
• Champion a build-measure-learn culture, even in complex systems (trading, execution, payments)

1. Create Clarity Across Complex Domains

• Translate across:
• Trading workflows (execution, margin, risk, market data)
• Customer journeys (onboarding → funding → trading → scaling)
• Help PMs simplify complexity into clear product narratives and priorities

1. Establish Operating Rhythm

• Own product rituals:
• Weekly product reviews
• Monthly planning cycles (if operating in sprint-based model)
• Clear prioritization frameworks across teams
• Bring consistency and accountability to product execution

1. Influence Leadership

• Act as a thought partner to the COO, and CEO
• Push back when needed—grounded in data, customer insight, and product principles
• Help leadership make better product decisions faster

What We’re Looking For

Core Product Leadership

• 7–12+ years in product management, with experience leading PMs
• Proven track record at high-performing digital product companies (e.g., Airbnb, Netflix, Stripe, Uber)
• Deep understanding of modern product frameworks (Reforge-style thinking, growth loops, experimentation, etc.)

Product Craft (Non-Negotiable)

• Exceptional at:
• Problem definition
• Customer insight generation
• Prioritization under ambiguity
• Driving measurable outcomes
• Strong bias toward clarity and simplicity in complex environments

Leadership & Coaching

• Experience managing and developing PMs with varying strengths
• Ability to coach without taking over
• Comfortable leading strong-willed, domain-heavy teams

Execution Strength

• Can operate in high-velocity, imperfect environments
• Comfortable balancing:
• Tactical delivery needs
• Strategic product direction

Nice to Have (Not Required)

• Experience in:
• Trading platforms, brokerage, fintech, or prop trading
• Market data, execution systems, or payments
• Familiarity with regulatory environments (NFA, CFTC, etc.)

What Success Looks Like

• PMs become sharper, more structured, and more outcome-driven
• Product shifts from reactive execution → intentional strategy
• Clear alignment across:
• Prop business
• Platform
• IB strategy

Why This Role Matters

We already have strong domain expertise. What we need is someone to bring product discipline and excellence—to turn a capable team into a high-performing product organization.

Compensation

• Competitive base + performance bonus

Position Summary

Join MyFundedFutures as the next QA Engineer responsible for ensuring that every release that reaches production meets a high bar for quality, stability, and correctness. This is a hands-on role with genuine ownership. You are the gate between code-complete and thousands of users.

You will work closely with product and engineering to define acceptance criteria, have thorough manual test and debugging skills, own the staging environment, build and maintain automation coverage and drive a culture where quality is everyone's responsibility and QA is the last line of defence, not an afterthought.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the QA gate for every release - nothing reaches production without the QA sign-off.
• Radiate knowledge of the trading products and asset classes the platform supports — including equities, futures, and leveraged instruments — so that test coverage reflects real-world user behavior, risk scenarios, and edge cases that matter in live trading environments.
• Stay current with changes to supported asset classes, new product offerings, and evolving platform capabilities; proactively update test plans and regression coverage as the product horizon expands.
• Execute end-to-end regression across all release tickets, verifying against defined acceptance criteria.
• Conduct production smoke tests of every production deploy, validating critical paths are intact.
• Maintain a stable, predictable Staging environment that PM and product can rely on for UAT.
• Build, maintain, and extend the automated regression suite covering critical user journeys: account creation, trading flows, payouts, and authentication.
• Own E2E test coverage; partner with developers on integration and API test coverage.
• Integrate regression suites into CI pipelines so every RC build is automatically validated before manual testing begins.
• Drive automation coverage toward a state where manual regression is focused on new features, not re-testing known-good functionality.
• File all bugs in Jira with clear reproduction steps, environment details as defined.
• Triage and prioritise incoming bugs; communicate release-blocking issues to the product engineering team.
• RanWork with developers during code review to ensure testability, meaningful test coverage, and that new features include adequate unit and integration tests before reaching QA.
• Support PM UAT on Staging - answer environment questions, provide test data, and reproduce issues on demand.
• Maintain test plans, test case documentation, and regression checklists as the authoritative QA reference.
• Document recurring issues, environment quirks, and common failure patterns so knowledge is not locked in one person.

Qualifications

Required

• Working knowledge of trading markets and financial instruments, including equities, futures, and leveraged asset classes. You understand how these products behave, what failure modes look like from a trader's perspective, and why accuracy and timing are non-negotiable in a live trading context.
• Proven experience as a QA Engineer on web and/or mobile software products with a structured, process-driven approach to release quality.
• Hands-on experience writing and maintaining automated E2E test suites using frameworks such as Playwright, Cypress, or similar.
• Solid understanding of the full QA lifecycle: test planning, regression execution, bug management, environment ownership, and release sign-off.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and the ability to integrate test suites into automated build and release workflows.
• Experience with Jira or similar for bug tracking and release management
• Strong written communication skills - clear, precise bug reports and sign-off documentation are non-negotiable.
• Ability to work autonomously and alongside a team
• Reliable and thorough - you follow through, you don't rubber-stamp, and you treat the QA gate as a genuine responsibility.

Preferred

• Experience with React Native and/or Next.js web applications - familiarity with both mobile and web testing contexts.
• Background in fintech, trading platforms, or other regulated/high-stakes software environments where production quality is not negotiable.
• Experience with API testing tools (Postman or similar) and a solid understanding of REST and WebSocket APIs.
• Exposure to mobile testing via TestFlight and device-based regression for React Native applications.
• Familiarity with NX monorepos and multi-environment deployment pipelines (dev, staging, production).
• Experience maintaining QA documentation in Confluence or similar knowledge bases.
• Comfort operating across multiple products or teams simultaneously, helping manage parallel release cycles with independent cadences.
