1d•Hybrid

About The Position

Anchorage Digital is building the world’s most advanced digital asset platform for institutions. As the Product Lead, Transparency, you will own the product vision, strategy, and execution for everything a regulated product needs in order to launch and scale. This includes client onboarding (KYC/KYB, modular onboarding, RIA program onboarding), customer risk rating and ongoing monitoring, sanctions and counterparty screening, transaction risk management (deposit attribution, AML withdrawal questionnaire, travel rule), the case manager and investigations workflows, account restriction frameworks, billing and invoicing, fee calculation, tax reporting, and the customer intelligence layer. You will lead a team of senior product managers across four squads, partner with their engineering and design counterparts, and act as the single point of accountability for Transparency across Anchorage. You will set the strategy that makes Transparency an internal platform that other product lines can integrate with on demand. You will be a trusted thought partner to the Head of Product and the rest of the Anchorage leadership team on how Anchorage scales as a regulated, multi-entity, multi-product platform.
