• Business Development & Ecosystem: Explore partnerships with institutional traders, quantitative funds, and blockchain projects to enrich trading resources and strategies. Identify opportunities for new trading models and business scenarios.

• Domain Expertise: Deep understanding of Spot, Futures, and Options trading logic. Must be intimately familiar with concepts such as order types, position management, margin mechanisms, and liquidation principles.
• Proven Track Record: Successfully delivered complex financial products from concept to launch, demonstrating strong execution, coordination, and strategic planning skills.
• Communication: Clear, logical thinker with the ability to articulate complex ideas to cross-functional stakeholders. Capable of defending design decisions and influencing without authority.
• Tools: Proficiency in mainstream product design tools such as Axure, Figma, and Office suites.
