The opportunity

Altruist is looking for a Senior Product Manager to lead the Portfolio Reporting Experience team. This is a high-visibility role focused on helping advisors and their clients understand portfolio performance, investment outcomes, and the data behind them.

• Lead product discovery through user interviews, market research, competitive analysis, and product analytics.
• Translate complex financial concepts, calculations, and data workflows into simple, accurate, and useful product experiences.
• Partner with Engineering and Design to define, scope, and ship high-impact products that test clear hypotheses and improve the customer experience.
• Maintain a focused product backlog and help the team maximize the speed, quality, and impact of its work.
• Evaluate reporting requirements, data dependencies, and vendor capabilities, including market-data partnerships and integrations.
• Work with Customer Success, Market Data, Compliance, and other partners to investigate issues, manage risk, and drive durable solutions.
• Collaborate with Product Marketing and PMs across the Investment Product Group to support adoption of reporting and investment products.
• Monitor product health and customer outcomes, using evidence to prioritize roadmap investments and address systemic issues.
• Use AI-enabled workflows and rapid prototyping where they improve product discovery, communication, or delivery quality

What you bring

• 5+ years of product management experience, preferably in financial technology, investment management, or another data-intensive product environment.
• Strong financial acumen and a genuine interest in investment concepts, portfolio analysis, performance measurement, and reporting standards such as GIPS.
• Experience working with financial, market, or portfolio data and communicating quantitative concepts clearly to different audiences.
• A demonstrated understanding of modern product discovery and product delivery practices.
• Familiarity with market-data providers such as Morningstar is a plus.
• Experience working within a regulated industry, with an appreciation for accuracy, auditability, controls, and operational risk.
• Deep technical literacy and the ability to engage engineers as peers, challenge assumptions, and understand system tradeoffs.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to make complex ideas clear and actionable.
• A track record of effective product development work with measurable results.

Location
