Producer

Jane Street • New York, NY

19d • $175,000 - $225,000

About The Position

The Creative Engagement (CE) team builds digital products and experiences that shape how people interact with Jane Street, including the company website, Figgie, and recruiting and internal apps. The Producer will help guide the direction of this portfolio by shaping product strategy and roadmaps, determining what to build and why, and defining measures of success. The role partners with designers, engineers, recruiters, external partners, and others across the business, while also using the products hands-on.

The role manages product lifecycles and helps a small team prioritize across a broad and growing portfolio. It translates loosely defined ideas into scoped projects, identifies opportunities for new products, and supports rapid prototyping and user-informed iteration. It also includes ongoing quality assurance, coordination with internal and external contributors, and clear written and verbal communication to keep stakeholders aligned.

Requirements

• At least 7 years of experience shipping consumer-facing or internal digital products as a product manager, ideally across apps and web and across the full lifecycle from concept through maintenance.
• Understand web and app development sufficiently to work effectively with engineers on feasibility, architecture tradeoffs, and effort.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to coordinate with stakeholders across the firm and externally.
• Good product instincts and the ability to scope vague requests and identify what matters.
• Comfort working across a portfolio and context-switching between large, long-running products and one-off projects.
• Generalist approach and willingness to contribute to adjacent initiatives.
• Bias toward shipping and getting prototypes in front of users quickly.
• Care for craft and detail, including noticing and addressing broken, slow, or improvable experiences.

Nice To Haves

• Background in games, recruiting, or education.
• Experience working with external agencies, contractors, or vendors.
• Hands-on prototyping skills using Figma, low-code tools, or light scripting.

Responsibilities

• Manage product lifecycle, strategy, and roadmaps across Creative Engagement’s digital products, helping the team make prioritization tradeoffs.
• Translate loosely defined ideas from internal partners in Recruiting, Trading, and Tech into clear, well-scoped projects.
• Identify gaps and opportunities for new products and experiences, and partner with the team to decide which to pursue.
• Drive rapid prototyping, put early versions in front of users, and iterate based on observed feedback.
• Perform ongoing quality assurance to catch regressions, edge cases, and bugs before users encounter them.
• Partner with Jane Street recruiters, designers, and engineers, as well as external vendors, contractors, and agencies, to align priorities and balance feature requests against technical realities, technical debt, and platform investments.
• Communicate clearly and regularly through specifications, status updates, and release notes to keep stakeholders informed and aligned.
