Proof of work

The team

The Funding Product Portfolio team is responsible for building world-class fiat funding and crypto on-ramp (deposits) and off-ramp (withdrawals) experiences. Whether it’s acting as a bridge between traditional finance and crypto (fiat funding), or as a on-ramp for clients to decentralized finance (crypto funding), our vision is to provide clients with a funding experience that is so easy and intuitive that the friction to get up and running with Kraken product feels non-existent.  

The opportunity

• Manage a high performing team of Product Managers within Funding, deploying a diverse set of people management techniques to achieve savage levels of accountability while building a culture of openness, collaboration, sticktoitiveness, and career growth. 

• Champion a culture of outcomes (over activity), where we default to proving the value of our work either quantitatively or qualitatively (over an assumption of value).

• Evangelize the asymmetric benefits of experimentation, creating an environment bordering on religion where we take calculated risks on two-way door decisions, knowing that we will learn a lot of lessons on what doesn’t work. 

• Create and communicate the overall product strategy, roadmap, and business plan for Funding, ensuring that stakeholders across the company are aligned with the direction and up to date on progress. 

• Build a high trust culture with the Funding Engineering and Design teams, creating a symbiotic relationship where everything we do is positive sum for one another and our clients. 

• Collaborate proactively with cross-functional stakeholders (Product, Support, Operations, etc.) to empower our team’s success as well as other departments’ success. 

• Establish goals, metrics, and KPIs so that you can thoroughly understand the performance of our products and team over time. 

• Implement value-added process improvements within and outside the team without letting the process become The Thing.

Skills you should HODL

• Interest and alignment in Kraken’s mission to accelerate the global adoption of crypto so that everyone can achieve true financial freedom and inclusion. 

• 6+ years experience working on funding related products, including 4+ years experience leading high performing product teams. 

• Demonstrated experience delivering end-to-end, client-facing funding solutions (ideally, both fiat funding and crypto). 

• Adept at qualitative and quantitative analysis, knowing when to favor anecdote over data (and vice versa). 

• Mastery at stakeholder management and conflict resolution, comfortable interacting with diverse personalities and skills. 

• Macro-to-micro versatility: strategic, big picture mindset coupled with a keen attention to detail and ability to dive deep and understand micro interactions. 

• Outstanding organizational and communication skills and the ability to balance competing/contradictory priorities. 

• Exceptional communication and presentation skills.
