Role
Who you are
- 7–10 years of relevant experience as a TPM or engineering program manager in fast-paced tech environments. Software engineering and development background is ideal
- Proven experience leading complex technical programs with distributed systems, APIs, cloud infrastructure, or trading platforms
- Strong technical acumen—you don’t need to code daily, but you should be comfortable reading architecture docs, debating implementation trade-offs, and debugging timelines with engineers
- Fintech product knowledge—whether from a trading platform, robo-advisor, or bank—you understand the regulatory and user dynamics that shape our domain
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills—you can translate between business, design, and engineering fluently
- Familiarity with compliance, security, or operational requirements in a regulated industry is a big plus
- Self-directed, scrappy, and outcome-oriented—you thrive in startup environments where clarity and process are earned, not handed to you
What the job involves
- As a Technical Program Manager, you will play a critical role in collaborating with the engineering team that develops the trading platform, AI research, and backend infrastructure
- You are the force multiplier who drives outcomes, not just timelines
- You bring clarity to chaos, translating ambiguous goals into actionable plans while managing risks and dependencies with precision
- With enough technical depth to engage meaningfully with engineers, you proactively solve problems before they escalate
- You prioritize ruthlessly, streamline communication across stakeholders, and implement just enough process to enable speed and scale
- Focused on long-term impact, you build systems—not just projects—and bring steady leadership even in high-pressure situations
- Your value is felt not just in what gets done, but in how seamlessly and effectively it happens
- You will report to Charles Dong, co-Founder / Product Manager based in Singapore, while working closely with the CTO, CIO, and COO in the Bay area
- Drive cross-functional programs from concept to delivery—connecting engineering, product, operations, and compliance in the development of Arta's trading, AI, and fintech products
- Develop and maintain program roadmaps, ensuring alignment across teams and transparency to stakeholders
- Anticipate and mitigate risks proactively, and clear blockers with velocity and grace
- Own program-level planning rituals: sprint planning, reviews, milestone tracking, and retrospectives
- Partner with engineers and product managers to make high-quality technical trade-offs and sequencing decisions that balance speed, scope, and long-term scalability
- Bridge the communication between the Engineering team and Financial Operations team, and report to the Product team on real-time updates and progresses
- Bring order to ambiguity—turning fluid business goals into clear program plans and execution frameworks
- Evangelize engineering and product best practices while driving accountability for timelines, quality, and outcomes
- Serve as a technical sounding board and escalation point—deeply understanding the architecture, systems, and dependencies behind your program
- Support for engineering design documentation
- Project management of timelines and progress tracking

Our take
The “family office” is a financial management team that takes care of investments, family finances and growing wealth. Traditionally, this has been off-limits to everyone except the super-rich. However, Arta Finance believes that it can leverage big data, AI, and fintech to bring these kinds of services to the masses.
Though there is no shortage of financial management and investment platforms out there, Arta is offering something a little different with its AI-managed portfolios. These stand out because of the use of user data and input to personalize the choices of stock purchases and other decisions.
Arta emerged from stealth in the fall of 2022 with a substantial funding round, and has since pursued speedy growth. In 2023 its digital family office platform opened to all qualified investors in the US. At the same time, it announced the significant achievement that members have trusted the platform to manage more than $100 million on their behalf.
