Product Manager

About Aqua

Aqua is the operating system for wealth channel alternatives. We are building the platform for independent broker-dealers (IBDs) and independent financial advisors (RIAs) to invest in alternative assets. We are on track to process $5B in new transactions for 2025, with customer logos including some of the largest RIAs/BDs in the nation and asset managers including Blackstone, Apollo, JLL, Blue Owl, etc.

About the Role

We're hiring a talented and dynamic product manager to help us reimagine how alternative investments are managed. The alternative investment industry is notoriously manual and operationally complex—we're building technology to change that.

You'll be responsible for:

Shaping and driving our core product roadmap

Building intelligent automation systems

Creating the technical foundation that enables institutional-quality service delivery at scale

Owning end-to-end projects from conception to deployment, working directly with the CPO, CTO, and other key stakeholders

This is a rare opportunity to define how a modern alternative investment platform should work, building both client-facing products and the operational infrastructure that makes scalable service possible.

Who You Are

3-5+ years building scalable applications, ideally at fast-growing startups

Product-minded—you stay connected to users and business context, using technology to solve real pain points

Thrive in high-autonomy, ambiguous environments and move fast

Measure success by organizational impact, not number of meetings or documents produced

Design scalable, reliable systems

Comfortable wearing multiple hats when necessary

Communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders

Familiar with AI-driven applications and agentic workflows

Willing to roll up your sleeves and do whatever it takes to solve problems

Bonus Points

• Experience architecting and building AI applications or agents

• Strong UI/UX intuition and have built polished interfaces
