Director, Stock Tokenization Product Manager

About the role

We are looking for a technical product leader to own the end-to-end product lifecycle for stock tokenization - from deep integrations with market infrastructure operators (exchanges, ATS platforms, clearinghouses) to DeFi distribution and onchain utility. This role operates within and extends the existing Securitize platform and infrastructure - our DS Protocol tokenization stack, Securitize Markets broker- dealer, transfer agent services, and multi-chain deployment capabilities - rather than building from scratch. This is a high-visibility, high-autonomy role. You will be the primary technical product counterpart in rooms with exchange executives, regulators, and C-suite stakeholders. You will drive the architecture of how tokenized equities are issued, traded 24/7, settled with atomic delivery-versus-payment (DvP), and made composable across DeFi - while navigating the unique challenges that public equities introduce (corporate actions, rebasing, Reg NMS compliance) on top of our existing tokenization infrastructure. This role requires deep presence in New York to attend in-person technical integration meetings with market infrastructure partners and maintain ongoing relationships with key counterparts in the financial ecosystem.

Responsibilities

• Market Infrastructure & Exchange Integration
• Own the technical product roadmap for integrating with major U.S. and global market infrastructure operators - stock exchanges, alternative trading systems (ATS), central securities depositories, and clearinghouses.
• Lead hands-on technical integration workstreams with exchange partners: define API specifications, data-layer requirements, order routing protocols, and settlement connectivity.
• Attend on-site integration meetings in New York and serve as the primary technical product interface for these relationships.
• Define product requirements for Reg NMS compliance during U.S. market hours, including NBBO alignment, order execution through Securitize Markets (broker-dealer), and post-trade reconciliation workflows.
• Architect the after-hours trading model: specify the smart-contract-based AMM pricing mechanism that reflects onchain supply and demand outside traditional market hours, enabling 24/7 trading.
• Tokenization Infrastructure & Onchain Issuance
• Define the product workflow for onboarding issuers: coordination with existing transfer agents or onboarding onto Securitize's SEC-registered transfer agent, DRS migration for existing shareholders, and new issuance flows.
• Ensure the cap-table-as-source-of-truth model is maintained - token holders are recorded as shareholders with direct ownership, not beneficial/entitlement ownership through intermediary chains.
• Design off-chain bridge mechanisms for holders to migrate between tokenized and traditional share formats.
• Distribution & Liquidity Infrastructure
• Architect the multi-venue distribution model: primary issuance onchain, secondary trading through Securitize Markets and approved venues, and progressi
