About the role
About Alta
Alta is building global infrastructure for tokenized financial products. On Alta, institutional-grade tokenized bank deposits, money markets, T-bills, equities, and stablecoin payments settle instantly, with compliance executed provably and privately as part of on-chain settlement.
Alta is built to be massively scalable, provably compliant, and cryptographically private. It natively supports agentic payments and connects to a global network of local payment rails.
Our mission is to build the financial rails the world needs.
The role
You’ll lead Alta’s customer treasury and payments products, from understanding customer needs through to launch and ongoing use. You’ll help businesses move and manage money, whether they use Alta directly or offer its products through their own services.
Reporting to the CEO, you’ll agree product direction and own the roadmap and day-to-day product decisions. You’ll work closely with Engineering and the commercial team, spending time with customers and taking responsibility for how the products perform.
This is a hands-on role with a broad remit. You’ll need to decide where to focus, work through unfamiliar problems and adapt as the business grows.
Responsibilities
Work directly with customers to understand their payment and treasury needs, identify worthwhile problems and test demand for new products.
Own the product roadmap, turning company priorities and customer insight into a clear plan for what to build and improve.
Lead product design and requirements with Engineering, making financial workflows straightforward for customers and practical to deliver.
Develop product business cases, pricing and packaging with the commercial and finance teams. Understand the value to customers and the economics for Alta.
Work with partners and providers to assess capabilities and shape products that meet customer needs.
Integrate FX and other shared capabilities into treasury and payments products, working with their product owners.
Lead product launches and early customer implementations across Engineering, commercial and operational teams. Make sure products are ready to use and support.
Own product performance after launch. Use customer feedback and evidence of adoption, reliability and commercial results to decide what to improve next.
What you’ll bring
Experience building or launching products using stablecoins or blockchain technology.
Substantial product experience in payments, treasury or financial infrastructure, with responsibility for launching products and growing customer usage.
A practical understanding of money movement and how businesses manage funds, sufficient to make sound product decisions.
Experience building financial products with engineers and external partners, including APIs and customer-facing experiences.
Strong commercial judgement and the ability to weigh customer value, delivery effort and product economics.
A record of taking ownership across teams, communicating clearly and doing detailed product work yourself.
Nice to have
Experience with embedded finance or building several related products on a shared platform.
Why Alta?
Define the category: Prove real, repeatable, scaled utility in blockchain finance by co-building the infrastructure for tokenized assets.
Strong foundation: Join a well-resourced company with early traction and global distribution.
Founding-level impact: Own a mandate that shapes the company, with a competitive base salary and substantial equity upside.
