The Role

We’re on the hunt for a crypto-curious PMM to help make Kraken and our asset listings easy and accessible for everyone. In this role, you’ll be responsible for the success and growth of the depth and breadth of assets we offer on the platform. This will include conducting inbound research to understand the motivations, needs and opportunities behind Consumer, Pro Trader, and Institutional needs, as well as crafting and executing go-to-market strategies that bring tailored products to the market.

You’ll be an important partner to our product team and will have a hand in influencing the asset listing roadmap. Your team will lead, organize, conduct, and coordinate proactive quantitative and qualitative research with various stakeholders and partners to distill insights that help us deeply understand and empathize with our users and prospective clients. You will learn their most pressing needs and problems. These inputs will influence our product-lead growth, segmentation, messaging and experimentation. You will inform how we solve these problems and provide value.

You will activate cross-functional partners in marketing at the right time to achieve our go-to-market goals. This will include setting measures of success and defining the inputs/outputs needed to derive product-market fit. You will use these to activate and direct acquisition, retention, content, social, comms, brand, creative, and other teams. You will conduct the efforts needed to achieve and scale growth. A key thing is we focus on resonance in our storytelling and we are thoughtful and calculated with our big bets.

Create and share intel; know our products, our competitors products, and the differences between them better than anyone

Plan and execute go-to-market strategy for new products by framing the positioning, messaging, and value propositions for each relevant client segment
