Senior Product Manager – Futures

Company Name: IG US Holdings, Inc. 
Role: Senior Product Manager, Futures
Location: Chicago, IL - Hybrid (3 days/week in office) 

Our Product Team manages the portfolio of features and enhancements that power tastytrade, guiding each initiative from initial concept through discovery, build, deployment, and continuous improvement. We're expanding the team to match the ambition of what we're building, and we're hiring a Senior Product Manager to own our futures trading experience. 

tastytrade already has a strong futures offering, and we're about to make it significantly more powerful. As we execute a major expansion of our futures infrastructure, taking greater ownership of its clearing and operational capabilities, this role will be actively involved in key firm decisions, while also owning the client-facing experience that futures traders see every day. This is a unique opportunity to own meaningful customer experience work on a live, high-volume trading surface, while engaging in the kind of structural work that changes what tastytrade is capable of long-term. 

You'll report into the head of product and own tastytrade's futures experience end-to-end – contract discovery and order entry, position management, margin communication etc. – while partnering closely with the technology and operations teams driving this buildout. You'll develop deep subject matter expertise in futures markets and play a pivotal role in shaping a platform that's redefining what a retail futures business looks like. 

What You’ll Do: 

Own the futures trading experience end-to-end:  

• Lead strategy and execution for the full futures product surface, including the active trader interface, ‘pairs’ trader, DOM and ladder, chart-integrated order entry, calendar spread and roll workflows, and options-on-futures entry.  
• Ensure a fast, precise, and trustworthy experience for active traders across web, mobile, and desktop, while recognizing that each platform has unique constraints and highest-value use cases. 

Drive measurable business outcomes:  

• Develop a comprehensive product strategy for futures that translates business vision into executable plans.  
• Define and track OKRs and KPIs tied to futures trading volume, active trader retention, and micro contract adoption. 
• Build business cases for new product investments with clear ROI projections and competitive positioning. 

Navigate complexity across markets and stakeholders:  

• Own the product decisions that sit at the intersection of trading infrastructure, exchange relationships, and regulatory requirements, including margin methodology (SPAN), overnight vs. intraday requirement communication, clearing and reconciliation, and session transition UX.  
• As tastytrade expands its role in futures market infrastructure, you'll help define what new capabilities mean for the customer experience, working closely with legal, compliance, and operations to translate regulatory milestones into product opportunities.  
• You’ll communicate confidently with executive stakeholders while translating between technical and business perspectives, and manage cross-functional dependencies with the options, equities, and core platform teams. 

Grow and develop the futures customer base:  

• Partner with marketing and content teams to identify opportunities to bring new traders into futures, particularly through the micro contract product lineup (/MES, /MNQ, /MBT, and others), and design the onboarding, education, and activation flows that get them to their first successful trade. 

Who You Are: 

5+ years of product management experience with demonstrated success leading complex product initiatives, managing stakeholder relationships, and delivering products that drove significant business outcomes and revenue growth
