About The Position

Millennium is seeking an experienced Technical Product Manager to drive the evolution of our next-generation internal trading and analytics UIs. At Millennium, we are modernizing the way the firm interacts with its order flow and trading tools. As a Technical Product Manager for our Next-Gen UI Platform, you will be the critical link between internal stakeholders (trading desks, risk managers, middle office, and other operational teams) and the UI engineering team. Working closely with UI Engineering and its leadership, you will help build and evolve an extensible UI component library that serves as the set of building blocks for a cohesive user experience across all of Millennium’s internal UIs. You will partner with business SMEs across the firm to translate UI and business requirements into clear, functional product requirements for engineers. You will own and refine a central backlog of UI requests, perform gap analyses on the component library, and produce a product roadmap that balances quick wins with long-term strategic adoption. In this role, you will support the delivery of new UIs and features end-to-end, acting as the primary liaison for product updates, timelines, and priorities with internal stakeholders. You will also coordinate with backend and platform teams to ensure the right services and data are in place to support new UIs and use cases. This role is pivotal in shaping Millennium’s next-gen UI strategy and improving the efficiency and consistency of users’ day-to-day workflows across the firm.
