Job Description

The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation offers an on-site opportunity in New York, NY for a Senior Director, Technical Product Manager focused on Digital Assets. This role leads end-to-end custody product development within a digital assets team, delivering capabilities across wallet services, key management, and operational workflows. The annual compensation ranges from USD 136,500 to 300,000, with additional rewards including commission earnings, discretionary bonuses, short- and long-term incentive packages, and company-sponsored benefit programs.

Responsibilities

Translate outcomes into clear requirements and maintain a prioritized backlog for core custody capabilities, including wallet services, key management, and operating workflows.
Write detailed product requirements, define acceptance criteria, and collaborate with engineering to estimate, sequence, and deliver features such as deposits and withdrawals, transfers, whitelisting, approvals, entitlements, and reporting.
Partner daily with Compliance, Technology, Operations, and Risk to refine requirements, document control needs, and ensure custody releases satisfy client commitments and regulatory expectations.
Collaborate with engineers and architects to evolve custody services and integrations (APIs and events) across trading, settlement, and accounting platforms, emphasizing resiliency, auditability, and operational controls.
Contribute to custody security and control design by capturing control requirements in user stories, participating in threat and risk reviews, and supporting evidence collection for audits (MPC/HSM usage, access governance, segregation of duties).
Own end-to-end feature delivery across custody workflows, including user acceptance testing support, runbooks, and go-live readiness with operations teams.
Assist with build-vs-buy evaluations by gathering requirements, assessing vendor capabilities, and documenting tradeoffs across security, regulatory expectations, resilience, cost, and time to market.

Requirements

15+ years of product management or technical product management experience, ideally within financial services or market infrastructure.
4+ years of hands-on experience with digital asset custody, wallet infrastructure, or related market infrastructure supporting settlement and safekeeping.
Strong technical fluency enabling collaboration with engineers on APIs and integrations, the ability to read logs and metrics, and data-driven validation of outcomes and troubleshooting.
Knowledge of digital asset custody operating models, safeguarding expectations, and control frameworks.
Understanding of wallet architectures (hot/warm/cold), transaction lifecycles, and blockchain mechanics (fees, finality, reorgs).
Familiarity with key management and cryptography concepts, including MPC and HSMs, key ceremonies, backup/recovery, and secure signing.
Operational risk experience for custody, covering approvals/entitlements, travel rule considerations, reconciliation, auditability, and incident response.
Experience supporting multiple blockchain networks and asset types, with a pragmatic approach to adding networks safely.
History of delivering secure, resilient, and auditable software in regulated environments, with strong SDLC practices, change management, and operational readiness.
Proven ability to deliver platform products end-to-end, translating complex technical concepts into clear roadmaps, requirements, and prioritized backlogs.
Execution-focused collaboration with cross-functional teams including product managers, designers, and engineers.
Strong communication skills for gathering requirements across diverse stakeholders.
