Full Job Description
đź“‹ Description
- • Alt is at the forefront of unlocking the value within alternative assets, with an initial focus on the dynamic $5 billion trading card market. We provide collectors with a comprehensive platform to buy, sell, vault, and finance their collections seamlessly. Our growth is fueled by the support of industry leaders such as Stripe, Coinbase, Seven Seven Six, and renowned athletes like Tom Brady and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Our strategic next step involves establishing real-time pricing at scale, creating the 'Alt Value' that is fundamental to every transaction, loan, and product offered on our platform.
- • We are seeking a highly technical Senior Product Manager to spearhead the development and enhancement of Alt's pricing and valuation engine, known as 'Alt Value'. This core infrastructure is critical for real-time collection pricing, enabling cash advances, supporting our lending operations, and paving the way for future asset classes. This pivotal role operates at the confluence of machine learning, sophisticated pricing systems, financial modeling, and essential human-in-the-loop operations. The objective is to evolve our current valuation engine from its initial version into a world-class, multi-asset platform capable of handling diverse and complex assets.
- • Success in this role demands a robust understanding of machine learning modeling approaches, including but not limited to random forest and other tree-based models. You will need expertise in feature engineering, accuracy metrics, the intricacies of pricing systems, and a deep comprehension of the dynamics involved in valuing high-value, niche assets. While not strictly required, a strong familiarity with the trading card hobby or the broader alternative assets market will be a significant advantage, allowing for quicker integration and impact.
- • This position represents one of the most critical product leadership roles within Alt. The existence of this role is driven by the foundational importance of our pricing engine, Alt Value, to the entire marketplace. It directly powers real-time pricing for collections, is the engine behind our cash advance product, and forms the bedrock of our lending model. We are looking for an individual who can demonstrably improve model accuracy, broaden the scope of our pricing coverage, significantly accelerate the speed at which we can provide valuations, and build the essential machine learning foundation required to scale our operations into new and emerging asset categories.
- • The ideal candidate will be a hands-on Product Manager capable of owning the complex intersection of ML modeling, pricing strategies, credit decisioning inputs, and human-in-the-loop operational workflows. The mandate is to transform these areas into a disciplined, high-velocity product roadmap that drives tangible business outcomes.
- • Key Responsibilities will include owning and advancing the ML Pricing Engine (Alt Value) by expanding its coverage to encompass new asset categories and Stock Keeping Units (SKUs). A primary focus will be on improving the accuracy and consistency of valuations, with particular attention paid to high-value, premium assets. You will be instrumental in shaping the modeling strategy in close collaboration with our Data Science team, exploring advanced techniques like random forest and ensemble approaches. This includes defining critical model inputs, features, operational constraints, and establishing robust evaluation metrics. Furthermore, you will be responsible for building essential tools and dashboards to monitor accuracy curves, detect model drift, and track overall model performance.
- • Another significant area of ownership is Human-in-the-Loop Pricing (HITL). This involves redesigning existing workflows to dramatically reduce pricing turnaround times, aiming for a reduction from days to mere hours. Enhancing the quality of labeling, optimizing routing and prioritization mechanisms, and establishing effective feedback loops into the training data are crucial. The goal is to make HITL processes predictable, measurable, and highly scalable.
- • You will also define the strategic roadmap for Data Inputs and Infrastructure, identifying and prioritizing new data sources, attributes, comparable sales data, and metadata essential for accurate pricing. This requires close partnership with the Data Engineering team to ensure that data pipelines are robust and meet the demanding needs of our ML models and pricing systems, guaranteeing the freshness, completeness, and reliability of all pricing inputs.
- • Finally, you will own the Roadmap and Execution for the pricing and valuation domain. This involves building the quarterly roadmap for pricing, ML, and HITL systems, and driving crucial alignment across Engineering, Data Science, Marketplace Operations, and Customer Experience teams. Clear communication of priorities and ensuring disciplined execution will be paramount to success.
- • Key metrics you will own include Pricing Accuracy & Coverage, improvements in model accuracy (especially for high-end assets), Alt Value coverage expansion, and the speed of pricing submissions. Success in your first six months will be measured by a material expansion of Alt Value coverage into new categories, a 40-60% reduction in pricing turnaround time, significant improvements in high-end asset accuracy and confidence scoring, the establishment of a clear and disciplined roadmap for pricing and ML execution, and the implementation of robust systems for monitoring accuracy, drift, and data quality.
🎯 Requirements
- • 5-8 years of Product Management experience, with a strong focus on ML platforms, pricing systems, risk decisioning, or marketplace dynamics.
- • Deeply technical background, comfortable with ML modeling approaches (e.g., random forest, tree-based models), feature engineering, accuracy metrics, and data schema design.
- • Proven experience partnering effectively with data science and engineering teams on model architecture, defining inputs, constraints, and performance metrics.
- • Strong intuition for pricing systems, valuation mechanics, or financial modeling.
- • Familiarity with the trading card hobby or alternative asset valuation (a strong advantage).
🏖️ Benefits
- • A significant opportunity to shape the future of Alt and the alternative asset space.
- • High degree of autonomy and ownership over impactful projects.
- • $100/month work-from-home stipend.
- • $200/month wellness stipend.
- • WeWork office stipend.
- • 401(k) retirement benefits.
- • Flexible vacation policy.
- • Generous paid parental leave.
- • Competitive healthcare benefits, including HSA, for you and your dependent(s).
- • Base salary range: $200,000 - $250,000, plus equity.
