Product Manager

Interested in working on cutting-edge blockchain technology and creating equitable access to the global financial system? Since 2014, the mission-driven team at the Stellar Development Foundation (SDF) has helped fuel the tremendous growth of the Stellar blockchain network, an open-source platform that operates at high-scale today. Developers and companies around the world build on it, and the SDF team is expanding to support the rapidly growing and changing Stellar ecosystem. SDF is hiring Product Managers to help shape the next chapter of the Stellar network. This is a generalist product role: depending on your strengths and where the ecosystem needs you most, you could own work spanning the core protocol, enterprise payments and tokenization, DeFi, developer experience and tooling, or the emerging surface of AI agents transacting on-chain. You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with world-class engineers, designers, and ecosystem partners to take ideas from problem to shipped product. We are looking for builders who use AI extensively to accelerate their work — and who increasingly deliver working prototypes, not just specs. In this role, you will: - In your first 30 days: ramp on the Stellar network, our products, and the ecosystem; meet your engineering, design, and partner counterparts; and ship a first small improvement end-to-end. - Within 90 days: own a product area, build a prioritized roadmap grounded in real user and ecosystem needs, and establish a steady delivery cadence with your team. - Define and drive product strategy and roadmap for your area, across one or more of: core protocol, enterprise, DeFi, developer experience, and agents. - Talk to users, developers, and partners constantly, and translate their needs and pain points into a compelling vision and crisp, actionable requirements. - Use AI tools to accelerate discovery and delivery — generating prototypes, mockups, and working demos to validate ideas before committing engineering time. - Partner
