The role involves building reliable financial products that offer deeper liquidity, enhanced trading and prediction-market functionalities, streamlined user funnels, robust partnerships, and a self-reinforcing DeFi ecosystem.
Requirements
- 5+ years of product management experience, ideally in crypto, DeFi, fintech, trading, financial infrastructure, developer platforms, or another highly technical product area.
- Strong technical background, either as a former engineer or through demonstrated ability to work deeply with engineering teams and reason through technical tradeoffs.
- Strong understanding of finance and financial concepts as they relate to DeFi, including liquidity, market structure, risk, yield, capital efficiency, and user incentives.
- Fluency in DeFi
- Ability to communicate clearly with customers, partners, and internal teams, including the ability to understand user needs and convert them into product decisions.
- Strong analytical instincts and comfort building dashboards, experiments, and product operating rhythms.
- Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to turn ambiguous product areas into crisp strategy, execution plans, and decisions.
Nice To Haves
- Experience building or scaling exchanges, order books, trading products, prediction markets, wallets, aggregators, lending products, vaults, or institutional financial products.
- Familiarity with Sui, Move, or object-based blockchain architectures.
- Experience working directly with market makers, liquidity providers, trading firms, funds, fintechs, or institutional counterparties.
- Experience launching products in legally complex or regulated financial categories.
- Prior founder, engineer, trader, DeFi power user, or ecosystem operator experience.
Responsibilities
- Own product strategy, roadmap, and execution for first-party DeFi products across DeepBook, DeepBook Predict, and the DeepBook app.
- Manage and grow product lines from early product discovery through launch, iteration, and scaled adoption.
- Define, track, and operationalize core product metrics, including liquidity depth, routed volume, active users, conversion, retention, capital efficiency, and institutional usage.
- Work closely with engineering and design to translate user, partner, and market needs into clear requirements and high-quality product experiences.
- Partner with business development, ecosystem, marketing, legal, and external teams to bring products to market responsibly and effectively.
- Build trusted relationships with DeFi protocols, market makers, wallets, aggregators, liquidity providers, institutional users, and other ecosystem participants.
- Identify product opportunities that make Sui easier and more compelling to use for financial applications.
