Arcesium is looking for a hands-on Product Manager to own and drive the evolution of our Tax Product for the Alternative Investment industry. This is a builder’s role for someone who can work closely with Engineering to translate complex tax workflows into scalable technology solutions—from requirements definition through production delivery.

We are looking for someone who has personally built and shipped technology solutions for hedge fund tax operations.

The role requires a strong combination of tax domain expertise, product thinking, and technology execution.
