- Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Risk, Accounting, Compliance, Legal, and external partners to shape requirements, influence roadmap priorities, and ensure business needs are translated into practical, well-controlled solutions.
- Drive strategic initiatives across launch readiness, process redesign, automation, control architecture, vendor tooling, and remediation of operational pain points.
- Define future-state workflows and ownership models for new products, features, and business expansions, ensuring that operational considerations are embedded early in design rather than addressed after launch.
- Establish and elevate documentation, policies, procedures, governance standards, and decision frameworks for critical workflows and strategic changes.

Required Skills and Experience:

- Deep knowledge of listed derivatives, futures operations, and broker-dealer or FCM workflows.
- Significant experience in operations, product operations, business operations, or program leadership in regulated financial services.
