Our Team Members:

We're a dynamic team of 400+ globally distributed members who thrive working from our favorite places around the world, with teammates spanning the USA, Canada, Japan, Hungary, Nigeria, Brazil, the UK, and beyond!

We're searching for passionate individuals eager to contribute to Alpaca's rapid growth. If you align with our core values—Stay Curious, Have Empathy, and Be Accountable—and are ready to make a significant impact, we encourage you to apply.

Your Role:

Our Trading API product team at Alpaca is looking for a Senior Product Manager to drive growth across Alpaca’s direct channel — from core Trading API products to Alpaca Connect / Marketplace, our ecosystem for third-party apps and partners. In this role, you will define and ship product initiatives that deepen developer and trader engagement, expand the partner ecosystem, and grow trading volume and revenue, while closely collaborating with engineering, design, data, marketing, partnerships, operations, and other cross-functional teams across Alpaca.

Your Responsibilities:

  • Shape the Alpaca Connect / Marketplace roadmap: self-service partner onboarding and approval, app discovery and distribution, OAuth / consent experiences, and platform utilities that help partners get found, adopted, and scaled
  • Help drive Trading API product strategy by deeply understanding customer and partner needs and behaviors, analyzing ROI, assessing market competition, and evaluating build-vs-buy opportunities
  • Define and own product requirements, partnering with engineering, design, operations, data, partnerships, and other cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality products on time
  • Own product metrics by leveraging data analytics to measure success, identify opportunities, and drive continuous improvement
  • Guide go-to-market strategy and execution, partnering with marketing, sales, partnerships, and operations to drive product adoption, activation, retention, and revenue growth
  • Drive Trading API growth— acquisition, activation, retention, and monetization — by deep-diving the user funnel, removing friction, optimizing conversion, and running experiments that move trading volume and revenue
  • Take ownership of ad hoc projects and initiatives as business needs evolve

Who You Are (Must-Haves):

  • Excited about what Alpaca is building
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, STEM, or a related field
  • 6+ years of experience in Product Management, Engineering, Trading, or building a product of your own
  • Deep passion for trading, markets, and financial products
  • Strong analytical skills with proficiency in SQL
  • Sharp business acumen, with the ability to balance user experience, stakeholder needs, technical feasibility, and resource constraints
  • Strategic thinker who can zoom in on solving immediate problems while keeping long-term company goals in mind
  • Highly self-driven, with exceptional communication skills to bridge technical and non-technical audiences

Who You Might Be (Nice-to-Haves):

  • Experience building or scaling trading platforms, brokerage products, developer platforms, or integration marketplaces
  • Hands-on experience with algorithmic trading
  • Technical background with experience working with APIs or partner ecosystems
  • Experience owning growth metrics

How We Take Care of You:

  • Competitive Salary & Stock Options
  • Health Benefits
  • New Hire Home-Office Setup: One-time USD $500
  • Monthly Stipend: USD $150 per month via a Brex Card

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
