Who We’re Looking For

We’re seeking a Lead Product Manager, Accounts to own Alpaca’s brokerage accounts product area end-to-end - account models, onboarding and lifecycle, KYC / KYB, sub-accounts and multi-accounts, IRA cross-work, and the APIs and operational workflows our partners rely on. This is a senior product role focused on area ownership and execution, not people management - you’ll own the accounts roadmap and personally ship across multiple lanes in parallel, partnering with the other PMs in the accounts area (Account Structures, IRA, tax / cost basis) to raise the standard of work shipped across the swimlane.

This role sits at the intersection of regulatory complexity, developer experience, and scale. You’ll unify what is today a set of important but fragmented initiatives - so partners get predictable APIs, clear documentation, and reliable delivery - while we expand globally across multiple licensed entities and regional accounts and tax regimes. You’re expected to provide early signal on US policy changes (FINRA, FATCA, OFAC, beneficial-ownership / CDD) rather than react after rules formalize.

You’ll work across many partner, engineering and operational teams, and you’ll represent the accounts area in product reviews, p
