We believe that you have the skills and drive to make a real impact. We foster a thriving internal community and are committed to creating a workplace that looks like the world that we serve.

Pay and Benefits:

  • Competitive compensation, including base pay and annual incentive.

  • Comprehensive health and life insurance and well-being benefits, based on location.

  • Pension / Retirement benefits

  • Paid Time Off and Personal/Family Care, and other leaves of absence when needed to support your physical, financial, and emotional well-being.

  • DTCC offers a flexible/hybrid model of 3 days onsite and 2 days remote (onsite Tuesdays, Wednesdays and a third day unique to each team or employee).

The impact you will have in this role:

We are seeking a commercial, strategic and execution-focused Senior Product Manager to support the build-out of DTCC’s Private Markets product suite and strategy. This role will be instrumental in shaping and delivering innovative solutions that expand access to alternative investments and build the required infrastructure that improves operational efficiency and aligns with evolving client and regulatory expectations. The ideal candidate is a self-starter, has experience building products from “0 to 1” (ideally within the private markets space) and has familiarity with the associated processes and market landscape. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of alternative investing by leveraging DTCC’s infrastructure and your product expertise. You’ll work at the intersection of innovation, regulation, and client experience—helping to unlock new growth opportunities for the business and its clients.

Your Primary Responsibilities:

  • Product Strategy & Roadmap definition: Define and execute the product vision and roadmap, including identifying market trends, client needs, and regulatory developments to inform product strategy. Build commercial models and business cases to substantiate the strategy.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: Collaborate with external partners and vendors, serving as a primary liaison between DTCC and its clients, as well as internal teams (e.g., technology, operations, legal/compliance, and the client office).
  • Product Development & Delivery: Lead end-to-end product development lifecycle — from ideation and requirements gathering to testing, launch, and post-launch optimization. Translate business needs into detailed product requirements and user stories, where required.
  • Operational Enablement: Partner with Operations and Technology to streamline workflows and ensure scalable, resilient infrastructure. Support development of strategy to integrate the alternatives products into the firm’s broader wealth platform and clients’ systems and environments, where required.
  • Risk & Compliance: Ensure all product initiatives adhere to regulatory requirements and internal risk standards. Proactively identify and mitigate potential risks associated with alternative products. Represent DTCC’s private markets to regulators where required.

**NOTE: The Primary Responsibilities of this role are not limited to the details above. **

Qualifications:

  • 10-15 years of experience in product management, preferably within wealth management, asset management, or financial infrastructure.

  • Strong understanding of or experience working in the market infrastructure or private markets space (e.g., private equity, hedge funds, real assets) and the associated operational ecosystem.

  • Proven track record to manage sophisticated cross-functional initiatives and deliver results in a matrixed environment.

  • Experience building production-grade products using blockchain infrastructure.

  • Outstanding communication, analytical, and stakeholder leadership skills; ability to articulate a vision in written, verbal, and presentation materials.

  • Bachelor’s degree required; MBA or relevant advanced degree a plus.
