As Head of Product, you will own the product roadmap for the entire organization, reporting directly to the North America CEO. This is a defining leadership role - you'll lead the evolution of our product management practice; establishing product as a standalone function separate from technology and elevating its strategic importance within the organization. You will lead and develop a team of 9 Product Managers and 9 Product Designers (including a Head of Design), while also having oversight of CRM journeys and internal tooling. This role offers the opportunity to shape the future of retail trading technology while building contemporary products that broaden our reach. What You'll Do: Strategy and Product Design:

Develop and steward an 18-24 month roadmap that directly reflects CEO and board-level priorities. Serve as the authoritative voice of product strategy across the organization — translating high-level business objectives into clear, actionable, and efficiently executed plans that create measurable market impact. Design customer-centric product experiences that balance sophisticated trading capabilities with intuitive usability, supporting customer progression from basic investing to active trading in multiple asset classes. Own CRM journey strategy and executive product decisions on internal tooling solutions.

Customer & Market Intelligence:

Develop and maintain a deep understanding of active traders’ needs, psychology, and decision-making processes. Identify the unmet needs of traders and translate them into category-defining products. Lead the product team in conducting user research via multiple channels - including platform usage data, customer support interactions, industry research, targeted surveys, user analytics - to build a holistic understanding of customer needs and lead teams in designing experiences customers love. Develop an ecosystem of trading tools, educational content, community, and engaging market awareness features to provide active traders with opportunity to succeed.

Lead cross-functional alignment and executive partnership:

Represent the product organization in the leadership team, partnering with the CEO, CTO and other tastytrade and IG Group leadership on business strategy execution, market expansion priorities, and investment decisions while maintaining tastytrade's independent culture and trader-first focus. Facilitate portfolio-level trade-off decisions across competing initiatives and build the organizational trust that keeps product at the center of company decision-making.

Deliver significant business outcomes:

Create measurement systems that track how product initiatives impact company goals, using clear metrics and KPIs that everyone can understand. Build a robust understanding of brokerage economics including transactional revenue, payment for order flow, credit and debit interest, regulatory capital requirements, and operating expense structure.  Build compelling business cases with financial projections to secure executive buy-in for major investments. Make data-driven decisions about which products to prioritize, expand, or sunset based on their contribution to revenue and strategic objectives.

Build and develop a high-performing product organization:

Recruit, coach, and develop product managers at every level - establishing career paths, mentorship programs, and stretch assignments that grow the next generation of product leaders. Set the bar for PM craft and foster a culture of curiosity, rigor, and continuous improvement. Build the frameworks, standards, and culture that make product management a recognized center of excellence at tastytrade.

Establish operational excellence and delivery cadences:

Design and implement the governance structures, rituals, and KPI dashboards that drive predictability, accountability, and efficiency across the portfolio. Drive AI integration both within the product experience (personalization, trading tools, education) and across team workflows to accelerate delivery.
