United States
Technical Skills:
- Drive the detailed prioritization of the CaaS platform roadmap, balancing foundational infrastructure work, partner-facing features, compliance requirements, and developer experience.
- Build comprehensive go-to-market strategy and execution, including defining success metrics, tracking adoption KPIs, and iterating based on partner feedback and data.
- Build deep understanding of system architecture, including multi-tenant platform design, API gateway patterns, ledger systems, and event-driven architectures, and communicate clear requirements to engineering.
Complexity and Impact of Work:
- Lead and influence cross-functional teams across Product, Engineering, Design, Compliance, Legal, Security, and GTM while maintaining strong stakeholder relationships.
- Manage independent decision-making through ambiguity inherent in scaling a platform and take full ownership of the CaaS product line and its growth.
- Demonstrate product leadership that elevates team performance, attracts top talent, and establishes Anchorage as the definitive infrastructure-as-a-service provider in digital assets.
Organizational Knowledge:
- Deliver company objectives through strategic product decisions that unlock new partner revenue while strengthening Anchorage's regulatory moat.
- Actively contribute to organizational strategy by identifying how CaaS capabilities can also benefit direct institutional clients.
Communication and Influence:
- Effectively influence and motivate across all levels of the organization, this role requires alignment from founders through to individual engineers.
- Serve as the internal and external evangelist for the CaaS platform, presenting to partners, at industry events, and to Anchorage leadership.
- Act as a trusted thought partner to senior leadership on platform strategy, competitive positioning, and market opportunity.
You may be a fit for this role if you have:
- 7+ years of product management experience, with significant experience building B2B2C, payment or platform/infrastructure products.
- Proven track record building 0-to-1 platform products — ideally in fintech, banking-as-a-service, payments, or crypto infrastructure.
- Deep understanding of platform business models — including API-first products, developer ecosystems, multi-tenant architectures, and partner enablement.
- Experience with regulated financial services — you understand the interplay between product velocity and compliance requirements (AML/KYC, bank regulations, money transmission).
- Strong technical fluency — you can go deep on API design, system architecture, ledger systems, and data models, and you earn credibility with engineering teams.
- Experience defining and shipping compliance-embedded products — where regulatory requirements are not a bolt-on but a core part of the product value proposition.
- You self-describe as some combination of the following: creative, humble, ambitious, detail oriented, hard working, trustworthy, eager to learn, methodical, action oriented, and tenacious.
Although not a requirement, bonus points if you have:
- Built or led a banking-as-a-service, custody-as-a-service, or payments-as-a-service platform.
- Direct experience with crypto custody, digital asset wallets, or blockchain infrastructure.
- Worked on multi-jurisdictional product launches involving complex regulatory coordination.
- Background in engineering, equipping you with the acumen to effectively collaborate with technical teams.
- Experience with white-label or embedded finance products.
