Your mission
As Senior Product Manager, you will own the strategy, direction and outcomes for Swap and other products. You will identify opportunities, prioritise investments and deliver continuous improvements that create measurable customer and business value.
You will combine product management expertise with practical knowledge of DeFi and Swap. Working closely with Engineering and other cross-functional teams, you will translate customer and business needs into clear product priorities, requirements and outcomes while respecting Engineering’s ownership of technical architecture and implementation. You will use Cursor AI, Dune and other relevant tools to accelerate research, analyse data and support evidence-based decisions.
Success will be measured through achievement of product strategy and roadmap objectives, the growth and health of key product KPIs, the quality and pace of product optimisation, effective stakeholder alignment and the delivery of measurable customer and business value.
What you’ll do
- Own the vision, strategy and roadmap for Swap and other products, translating company goals, customer needs and market opportunities into prioritised initiatives and measurable outcomes.
- Define differentiated DeFi value, balance short-term optimisation with long-term development and make investment decisions based on customer value, business impact, feasibility and risk.
- Apply your knowledge of DeFi markets, liquidity, routing, pricing, execution quality and blockchain transactions to address the needs of traders, liquidity providers, market makers, developers and other users.
- Track protocols, competitors, user expectations and blockchain developments to identify opportunities and manage security, market, protocol and operational risks.
- Use AI tools, including Cursor AI, for market intelligence, competitor analysis, customer research, discovery and performance analysis, building repeatable workflows that combine evidence, data and expert judgement.
- Turn insights into prioritised optimisation proposals with clear hypotheses, success measures and expected outcomes, validating AI-generated information against accuracy, security, privacy, confidentiality and governance standards.
- Lead product discovery through customer research, data analysis, experimentation and market validation.
- Own and prioritise the roadmap and backlog with Product Owners and Engineering, defining requirements, acceptance criteria and outcomes while managing dependencies, delivery risks and continuous optimisation cycles.
- Use Dune and other analytics tools to monitor on-chain activity, product KPIs, customer behaviour and business performance.
- Work across Engineering, Design, Product, Data, Operations, Marketing, Business Development and Executive stakeholders to understand technical trade-offs, communicate priorities and risks, align competing needs and make timely, accountable decisions.
Who you are
- You have at least six years of product management experience, including ownership of complex digital products or platforms.
- You have a proven ability to define product strategy, prioritise investments and deliver measurable customer and business outcomes.
- You have a strong practical understanding of DeFi and Swap products, including liquidity, routing, pricing, execution quality and blockchain transactions.
- You have experience using market, competitor, customer and product data to guide product decisions and continuous optimisation.
- You have advanced practical experience using Cursor AI and other AI-enabled tools responsibly across research, discovery, analysis and delivery.
- You have practical experience using Dune to analyse on-chain activity, customer behaviour, market trends and product performance.
- You understand APIs, indexers, data flows, routing systems and blockchain integrations well enough to work effectively with Engineering without owning the technical architecture.
- You have strong experience in product discovery, roadmaps, prioritisation, experimentation, Agile delivery and cross-functional leadership.
- You bring strong analytical, communication, stakeholder-management and decision-making skills, particularly in complex or ambiguous environments.
Nice to haves
- Experience with product analytics, A/B testing and experimentation frameworks.
- Experience introducing AI-enabled working practices across a product organisation.
- Experience managing products serving traders, liquidity providers, market makers or developers.
