Product Manager

Bastion provides regulated infrastructure for businesses to hold, move, and issue stablecoins through custodial wallets, payment orchestration, and stablecoin issuance. The Product Manager will own the Shared Services vertical, leading its roadmap, requirements, compliance checkpoints, delivery cadence, and stakeholder communication across foundational compliance-heavy capabilities.

Responsibilities:

• Map the Shared Services surface area: the foundational capabilities other verticals depend on, their current state, and where delivery risk is concentrated
• Meet your partners in Engineering, Compliance, and GTM; learn the escalation paths and how Shared Services work gates commitments elsewhere
• Take ownership of requirements for at least one active compliance-critical workstream and turn it into clear, sequenced, engineer-ready specs
• Stand up a lightweight triage cadence so incoming requirements and issues stop piling up
• Ship or unblock visible progress on at least one customer-gating milestone
• Own the Shared Services roadmap end to end: themes, sequencing, milestones, and compliance checkpoints aligned to company priorities
• Run a predictable operating rhythm (planning, triage, risk tracking, and stakeholder updates) that Engineering and Compliance can rely on
• Drive requirements and delivery across several concurrent regulated workstreams, holding the quality bar on each
• Partner with Compliance to define and track checkpoints that keep flows defensible without stalling delivery
• Keep stakeholders across verticals current on status, risks, and tradeoffs for the items that gate their commitments
• Sustain delivery across several regulated workstreams with the quality bar consistently met
• Build the instrumentation and feedback loops that make prioritization and compliance tracking repeatable rather than ad hoc
• Institutionalize the requirements, triage, and checkpoint practices so the vertical runs consistently as load grows
• Anticipate upcoming regulatory and customer obligations and get ahead of them in the roadmap
• Find ways to reduce recurring load on Engineering through better sequencing and reusable capability
• Turning open-ended compliance obligations (identity and due-diligence flows, third-party risk controls, regulatory reporting, travel-rule requirements) into clear, shippable product work
• Sequencing a heavily loaded vertical so the highest-gating items land first
• Reasoning clearly about stablecoin infrastructure (issuance, custody, settlement, and on-chain movement) to make sound product tradeoffs
• Keeping a reliable triage and requirements cadence under a heavy, shifting workload
• Creating clarity from ambiguity when obligations are incomplete or customer needs conflict

Requirements:

• We are open to candidates anywhere in the United States, with an advantage for those in (or willing to relocate or travel often to) New York City
• No prior experience working with stablecoins is required
• We have a preference for prior experience with fintech, compliance, or risk
