Job summary

Deciml is building the rails to bring Wall Street into the 21st century. In this hybrid role based in New York City or Austin, you will translate client needs into actionable product specs, own feature areas, and collaborate with design to ship iterative improvements for a growing fintech platform.

You’ll work with a team from leading financial institutions, applying your knowledge of debt and credit to shape a product that moves real capital efficiently and securely.

Qualifications

• You have deep familiarity with financial products, especially debt and credit basics.
• You can ramp quickly on unfamiliar domains and ask focused questions to reach the real mechanics.
• You thrive in cross-functional environments with engineering, design, and clients.
• You leverage AI as a tool in drafting specs, research, and prototypes while applying good judgment.

Responsibilities

• Define features end to end from ambiguous client asks to concrete specs.
• Make product calls on where data belongs, user navigation, and level of detail to show.
• Keep engineering moving by delivering defined, ready-to-build work.
• Collaborate with design to turn specs into wireframes and prototypes, iterating as needed.
• Turn client requests into product scope rather than one-off builds.
• Ship and iterate by reviewing features against the spec and feeding learnings back to the roadmap.

Job description

Our client is building the rails to bring Wall Street into the 21st century.

Backed by leading crypto venture investors, they are bringing together the best minds from Ethereum and Wall Street to rebuild the infrastructure that underpins the financial system faster, safer, fully on-chain.

Loan markets move trillions of dollars on systems built decades ago. You'll turn how those markets actually work into products that transform them, defining the features institutions will use to move real capital. The MVP is live with institutional clients; most of the product is still ahead of them.

What Will You Do?

If you're the right fit, you likely recognise yourself in many of these:

• Define features end to end. Take an ambiguous ask from a client or domain expert and turn it into the problem, requirements, user flows, and a spec that the engineering team builds from with little rework.
• Make the product calls. Decide where data belongs, how users navigate to it, and how much detail to show. Experts supply the market mechanics; the product decisions and nuanced judgment are yours.
• Keep engineering moving. Own a set of feature areas and keep a steady supply of defined, designed work ready so engineers are never waiting on product.
• Work with design. Partner with the design team to turn specs into wireframes and prototypes, and stay with a feature through iteration. Make quick changes in Figma yourself when that's faster.
• Turn client requests into product. Learn the clients and markets well enough to understand what a request really means, then scope it to fit the core product instead of becoming a one-off build.
• Ship and iterate. Review built features against the spec, make the call on what's ready, and feed what you learn back into the roadmap.

Who Are You?

You are an execution-focused product manager who builds. You'd rather define the next feature than run meetings about it.

Based in New York City (preferred) or Austin, Texas. This is a hybrid in-office role (3 days per week); not remote-eligible.

• A builder with real delivery reps. You have years of taking features from concept through spec, design, and engineering handoff. You may have done it in fintech or a market-adjacent domain, or you started as a financial analyst, trader, or operations specialist before moving into product. The instinct for clarity matters most.
• Fluent in financial products. You understand debt and credit basics: rates, payment schedules, principal and interest. Loan-market expertise is not required; they'll teach you the market.
• Detail-oriented. In this market a spec that's 95% right is wrong, and you like it that way.
• A fast learner. You ramp quickly on unfamiliar domains, and you ask the questions that get you to the real mechanics.
• AI-fluent. AI is a working tool in your product process: drafting specs, research, first-pass prototypes, with judgment about what not to hand off to it. The product team already works this way and expects you to help take it even further.
• Conscientious across locations. Product, engineering, and design sit in different cities. You keep yourself in step without being chased, and know how to prioritise effectively to stay aligned with the team.

Bonus: familiarity or interest in design and Figma, enough to make quick changes yourself.

What's In It For You?

• Career-defining scope. Own feature areas end to end, from first conversation to shipped product, in a market being rebuilt from scratch.
• Immediate impact. Your specs don't sit in a queue. Engineering builds what you define, and institutional clients are actively asking for more product than the team can keep up with; demand is ahead of the roadmap.
• Learn a market from the people who built it. You'll work alongside a team from leading Wall Street banks, asset managers, the Ethereum ecosystem and more.
• A market, then markets. The core product is built to carry beyond loans. You'll have the opportunity to take it into each new market they enter.
