Senior Product Manager

Opto is engineering the future of private markets to improve client outcomes and drive capital to the most transformative ideas. The opportunity is huge. The global alternative investments industry is forecast to grow to $30T by 2029, however the private investment process typically remains opaque, highly manual, and error-prone, which limits access to the select few insiders who are willing to bear the pain.

Opto is a revolutionary end-to-end solution for wealth managers of any size- from small investment advisors to large multi-family offices to private banks- to build, fundraise for, and manage private markets programs at scale. We combine exceptional Silicon Valley engineering talent with experienced investors and industry specialists to fix this broken system through the power of technology. Our platform banishes the nightmare of slide decks, spreadsheets, and paperwork to the past, and arms our clients with the tools, data, and guidance to identify and access the right opportunities for their clients.

Fixing private markets will not be easy and demands courage, but we’re not afraid to do things differently. We are unapologetically bold. We value strong opinions, clear communication, and purposeful execution.

Up for the challenge? Come join us. The role We’re hiring a Product Manager to own strategy and execution across a core area of the Opto platform.

Today, our product does not yet match the ambition of what we’re building. Workflows are fragmented, onboarding is not self-serve, and teams too often default to shipping features instead of solving problems. This role exists to change that.

You will own a major surface area end-to-end: the strategy, the priorities, the execution, and the outcomes.

Requirements

and hand them off. You will be expected to make hard tradeoffs and stand behind them, even when there is pressure to do otherwise. You are accountable for clarity, direction, and results.

This is a high-ownership role. You will operate with real autonomy, set direction, and be responsible for driving measurable impact on user behavior and business outcomes.

What You’Ll Do

Own the strategy for your surface area and the outcomes that ladders up to it. Know where you're going, not just what you're building next. Translate company-level goals into concrete product outcomes and measurable progress tied to adoption, assets on platform, revenue, or retention.

Partner closely with sales and GTM to ensure what we build reaches users and drives business impact. Product and go-to-market are not separate tracks. Work alongside design and engineering to shape solutions.

You are in the room when decisions get made, not writing specs from the outside. Structure work around clear opportunities, hypotheses, and bets. Continuously refine them as you learn.

Decompose complex, ambiguous problems into clear decisions and forward motion. Bring structure that makes the mess navigable. Drive prioritization with rigor.

“A customer asked for this” is not a strategy. You can distinguish patterns from one-offs and articulate why something matters more than the alternative. Push for simplicity and coherence.

Build end-to-end workflows, not disconnected features. Elevate design as a core part of how the product gets made, not a downstream step. Drive progress in the face of ambiguity, competing priorities, and imperfect alignment.

You do not wait for ideal conditions to move things forward. Use qualitative and quantitative insights to inform decisions. Be rigorous about how you gather signal.

Methodology matters as much as the data. Communicate clearly and consistently with stakeholders, building alignment without losing speed. Hold a high bar for what ships: quality, usability, and real impact on users and the business.
