Kerja Sepenuh Masa, VP, Technical Product Owner (Derivatives) di SGX - Maukerja

BUILD MARKETS. SHAPE ECONOMIES.

At SGX Group, we create markets. We turn ideas into products and expand access to new opportunities. We are building the future of the exchange in-house: from architecture and platforms to the critical systems that power markets. The biggest decisions are still open to people who join us now.

The opportunity

SGX is hiring Technical Product Owner (TPO) Lead for Derivatives domain to build and develop teams that drive initiatives from problem definition to production outcome with an evidence-based approach. While being hands-on in some initiatives, you will also guide the team in partnering with the Business Owner to translate user problems into measurable product outcomes by shaping scope, providing clarity to engineering teams, making trade-offs, and driving decisions rather than escalating them. You and the team won't write production code, but you'll be technical enough to challenge engineering decisions, prototype with AI agents, and earn the trust of an experienced engineering team.

You'll also help shape how SGX evolves SDLC practice as AI changes how products are delivered.

The Technical Product Owner team

Technical Product Owner connects business problems with technical delivery. The team works across product, engineering, data, and external vendors to define outcomes, shape scope, and give delivery teams the clarity they need to act.

The capability is being built across several domains. The next phase is about strengthening evidence-based product decisions, measurable outcomes, continuous discovery, and the use of AI to test ideas before engineering invests heavily.

This is a partnership role where you will work closely with business and engineering to achieve meaningful outcomes for our stakeholders within short timeframes.

What you will do

Product Analysis and Shaping

• Develop a deep understanding of the products in your domain (e.g., features, user experience, technical architecture, data flows) and contribute to the long-term technology roadmap of the product domain.
• Define, with the Business Owner and your team, the north-star metric and supporting KPIs that guide product iteration, and partner with engineering and data teams to ensure these metrics are observable.
• Produce the artefacts that engineering or vendors needs to act on, whether that's requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria or AI-assisted product specs, by partnering with stakeholders to understand the underlying business opportunities.

Roadmap and Prioritisation

• Co-own the product roadmap with the Business Owner, keeping it aligned with company goals, member needs, regulatory context, and other products within your domain and across domains.
• Prioritise features and enhancements based on evidence of user impact, business value, regulatory requirements and technical feasibility.
• Work with software vendors to shape their roadmap support SGX’s ambitions.

Stakeholder Management

• Communicate product direction, metrics, and progress to internal and external stakeholders at all levels.
• Build consensus and manage expectations around priorities, trade-offs, and the inherent uncertainty in product work.
• Support your team in complex stakeholder settings.

Ways of Working

• Use AI agentically to accelerate discovery, prototyping, and specification (e.g., generate working mockups, draft technical specs, validate assumptions) before engineering invests time.
• Drive continuous discovery through member interviews, prototypes as tests, and usage data analysis.
• Make trade-offs explicit (scope vs. timeline, build vs. buy, quick win vs. durable fix) and drive decisions around them.
• Challenge the status quo and help shape the product practice and SDLC improvements as they evolve across the engineering and product organisation.

Leadership

• Create, lead, and manage a high-performing and efficient team of Technical Product Owners and UX Designers.
• Elevate the team’s productivity by instilling a deep understanding of the market, customer demands and platform capabilities.
• Develop and execute the strategic vision for SGX’s products within your domain and share this with the team, keep them excited and highly engaged.
• Ensure the team’s awareness of the importance of ensuring resiliency and stability for SGX’s systems, especially CIIs.
• Foster a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

What we are looking for

• Experience. 10+ years in product management, product ownership, business analysis or engineering roles with significant product responsibility.
• Leadership. Proven track record of leading and managing large, complex products and teams
• Domain expertise. Experience in capital markets infrastructure (exchanges, clearing houses, derivatives, trading platforms) is a strong plus; broader financial services experience is also valued.
• Technical fluency. Able to read code, reason about APIs and data flows, evaluate technical trade-offs, and hold your own in architecture discussions with senior engineers.
• AI-native ways of working. Real, hands-on experience using AI agents to prototype, specify, and validate, not just to summarise documents.
• Strong product instinct. Sharp at problem framing, ruthless about scope, keen on data-driven decisions, comfortable driving decisions under ambiguity.
• Strong communicator. Able to influence and collaborate with diverse teams across business and technology, and across levels of seniority.
• Builder mindset. Comfortable working where some product and SDLC practices are still maturing, and happy to adopt and contribute to new ways of working as they emerge.
• Comfort with complexity. Experience shipping in regulated, multi-stakeholder environments is a plus.

Why this role matters

• You will work on products and platforms that sit inside critical market infrastructure, where product decisions have direct consequences for the business, its customers, and the markets it serves.
• The mandate goes beyond managing a backlog. You will shape how problems are framed, how outcomes are measured, and how business and Technology make decisions together. This is a uniqute role where you can build a team, influence the operating model, and change how products move from idea to production.
