Head of Product - Ethena Pay

Ethena is building the financial infrastructure for the next generation of digital dollars, powered by USDe. As Head of Product,

you'll lead Ethena's product organisation end to end — managing and mentoring a small team of Product Managers who each own

products across our wider suite, while also taking direct, hands-on ownership of the company's single most strategically important

product: Ethena Pay. This is a landmark new consumer neobank mobile experience built on Ethena's existing product set, that will

be central to Ethena's next phase of growth.

This is a high ownership role that spans both people leadership and individual-contributor product ownership. On the Ethena Pay

product, you'll be defining the vision, setting the metrics, and making the calls on a fast-moving initiative you'll help take

from near-zero to launch. Across the wider suite, you'll set the standard for product process, coach and develop two Product

Managers, and bring consistent rigor and prioritisation discipline to the product organisation as a whole.

You will operate with a very lean team and limited resources across product and dev, standing up much of the function's process

from scratch. You'll partner closely with the CEO and CTO, and report directly to senior leadership.

• Lead and mentor a team of two Product Managers running products across Ethena's wider suite, setting the standard for process,

prioritisation, and quality across the group.

• Take direct, hands-on ownership of Ethena Pay, the new consumer neobank experience product as its single accountable owner —

defining vision, roadmap, and success metrics.

• Stand up a real but lightweight product operating system from near-zero: discovery, prioritisation, roadmap, spec/PRD

standards, decision-logs, and operating rhythm, appropriate for a lean team.

• Establish scalable processes for support, risk, and compliance, working with legal to navigate relevant regulatory requirements

across jurisdictions.

• Comfortable operating as a credible peer to founders — able to take over product ownership from a technical founder and earn

trust fast, communicating crisply in writing as well as verbally.

• Hands-on by nature — happy in the detail (writing specs, reviewing flows, digging into data) with minimal resources on both

product and dev, rather than only directing.

• A bias toward action, and comfort delivering sophisticated products under ambiguous conditions in a fast-moving,

resource-constrained environment.
