About the Role
We’re looking for a Product Manager to own capabilities within our equity administration platform, covering equity and purchase plans, order processing and finalization. You’ll work closely with engineering, design, operations, and client-facing teams to define, build, and support features that stock plan administrators rely on every day.
Responsibilities
- Own the roadmap and requirements for assigned product areas — write clear user stories, acceptance criteria, and edge-case documentation
- Partner daily with engineering on design decisions, trade-offs, and release scope; participate in grooming, sprint planning, and demos
- Collaborate across operations, implementation, client service, and compliance to translate real administrator pain points into product changes
- Triage and drive resolution of production issues — reproduce problems, assess client impact, distinguish defects from configuration or data issues, and prioritize fixes
- Understand the backend well enough to be useful: data models for grants and transactions, vesting and lifecycle processing, tax withholding logic, integrations with HRIS/payroll/brokerage, batch jobs, and reporting pipelines
- Support client demos, RFP responses, and release communications
- Track competitor capability and feed findings into prioritization
Required Experience
- 10–15 years of total experience
- Minimum 5 years in equity compensation, with hands-on work at a US equity administration platform (participant and/or administrator side)
- Working knowledge of plan types (RSU, RSA, option, ESPP, PSU) and the mechanics behind them: vesting schedules, releases, exercises, purchase periods, forfeitures, and dispositions
- Comfort reading data structures, tracing transactions end to end, and writing or reading SQL
- Strong written communication — specs, defect writeups, and stakeholder updates
- Proven ability to work in cross-functional agile teams
Nice to Have
- Engineering or technical background — degree or prior hands-on experience in software engineering, computer science, or information technology
- Experience with platform migrations or client implementations
- Exposure to global/multi-jurisdiction equity administration
- Background in financial services or fintech
