Role Overview
We are hiring a Product Manager to own the US Stocks and derivatives business within our Global Products team. This is not a delivery-coordination role: you are accountable end-to-end for the product — its economics, its systems, its launches, and its failures. You will operate in a complex brokerage environment (liquidity providers, corporate actions, margin/leverage, multi-currency portfolios) where the cost of shallow understanding is measured in real money. Join Pluang and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of investing in Indonesia.
What You Will Do:
End-to-End Business Ownership (US Stocks & Derivatives)
Own the full lifecycle of GSS initiatives — from first-principles problem definition through PRD, build, launch, and post-launch P&L — not just the execution of a handed-down roadmap.
Be accountable for the commercial outcome: track revenue, adoption, and unit economics weekly; if a feature isn't making money, diagnosing why is your job before anyone asks.
Treat anything that impacts your product as your problem — including partner outages, compliance blockers, and downstream team dependencies.
Domain-Deep Product Delivery
Manage detailed execution of roadmap items across US Stocks, ETFs, IPOs, leverage trading, and derivative products — grounded in real understanding of order lifecycles, settlement, corporate actions, margin, FX translation, and broker economics.
Translate strategy into PRDs, user stories, and simulations you have personally stress-tested; you should be the most knowledgeable person in the room on your own workstream.
Sequence work by impact, not by arrival order: distinguish the steps that need deep thinking from the steps that are just writing, and allocate your effort accordingly.
Cross-Functional & Partner Coordination
Drive execution across engineering, design, QA, compliance, operations, and external partners (liquidity providers, market-data vendors), acting as the primary interface to third parties.
Escalate early and communicate proactively — surface risks and blockers the day you see them, with a recommended answer attached, never sitting on them.
Documentation & Decision Hygiene
Maintain rigorous written artifacts: no significant conversation, decision, or handoff without a structured document. PRDs, SOPs, and runbooks must be written to be consumed — with intent, indexing, and format.
Ask questions early and in context; validate assumptions before building on them.
Data-Driven Optimization and Experimentation
Execute structured experimentation (e.g., A/B tests), analyze user data, and use insights to iteratively improve features and conversion funnels.
Evaluate product performance through user behavior analysis and benchmarking, proactively recommending improvements.
What We're Looking For
Qualifications
-
4+ years in product management, with mandatory experience in brokerage, trading platforms, or capital-markets fintech.
-
Working knowledge of market mechanics is a hard requirement : order types and lifecycle, settlement, corporate actions, margin and leverage, FX exposure, and broker/LP economics. Candidates will be tested on this in interviews.
-
Demonstrated history of owning a product P&L or business metric — not just shipping features.
Skills & Competencies
-
Judgment under load : able to rank tasks by business impact ("equity"), sequence them correctly, and defend the ranking — we screen for this explicitly with prioritization cases.
-
Systems thinking: can trace a feature end-to-end across frontend, backend, partner APIs, and ops workflows rather than treating pieces in isolation.
-
Strong written communication: structured documents, decision logs, and stakeholder updates as a default habit.
-
Proficient analytical capabilities to support data-driven experimentation and decision-making.
-
Mindset:
-
Owner, not executor : takes unprompted initiative to expand scope, hunts for wins, and holds themselves accountable for outcomes they weren't explicitly assigned.
-
Self-directed learner: closes knowledge gaps proactively using every available resource (including AI tools); asks early rather than assuming.
-
Comfortable being challenged on fundamentals and expecting the same rigor of others.
-
Preferred Experience:
-
Direct exposure to IPO/primary-market workflows, CFDs, options, or commodities trading.
-
Familiarity with regulatory compliance and operational considerations within fintech products.
-
Experience managing third-party broker/LP integrations (e.g., Alpaca-type partners).
-
