About the role
Sei Labs is incubating a new US-regulated derivatives venue. We're driving toward a DCM license and, on the back of it, launching a regulated venue for spot and futures across a curated set of crypto assets. Parallel workstreams need to land at regulator submission on the same day — and then go live not long after.
We're hiring a Senior PM to lead the whole DCM initiative. This person owns the master plan, holds partners and internal leaders to it, and gives execs and the board the unfiltered read on where we actually are. Post-license, you'll coordinate exchange build and rollout across partners, compliance, legal, and business, and grow into exchange operations.
This is one of the highest-leverage roles in the company. If you've taken a regulated trading platform from intake to license, this is the seat.
What you'll do
Own the master timeline, milestone cadence, and cross-project dependencies for 9+ workstreams pointed at DCM submission
Drive partner-commercial tracking across DCO, Anchorage, FCMs, SMARTS, KYC vendors, Connamara, and others — integration timelines, contracts, and SLAs
Run daily, weekly, and monthly project planning, check-ins, and risk surfacing across internal teams and external counterparties
Deliver exec-level status reporting and board updates — clean, honest signal, no green-washing
Hire and manage a bench of TPM/PMs as the program expands into more topic areas
Post-license, coordinate exchange build and go-live across partners, compliance, legal, and business; grow into ownership of exchange operations
Be the person who removes blockers, gets alignment, and keeps the program pointed at the goal
Who you are
10+ YoE in program management (5+ if you're deep in US licensing product work)
2–3+ years at a US-licensed crypto trading platform, ideally in a ProgM role that led the initial licensing effort (DCM, ATS, broker-dealer, MSB, or equivalent)
Fluent working with FCMs, DCOs, custodians, surveillance vendors, and KYC providers
Strong track record delivering complex, multi-vendor projects with hard regulatory deadlines
Excellent written communicator — you turn messy execution into crisp updates leadership can act on
Comfortable holding senior internal leaders and external partners to their commitments
Bonus: chief-of-staff or founder-adjacent experience at an early-to-mid stage company; fintech ProgM background overlapping with SEC/compliance work (Robinhood, Stripe crypto, dYdX, Hyperliquid-type orgs, Coinbase, Kraken, Binance.US, etc.)
After you apply, unlock the direct contact details of the people who actually make the call. A quick follow-up makes you 5x more likely to land an interview.
