Sr. Manager, Digital Product Manager

Your Opportunity

Schwab Advisor Services (AS) is the industry leader in providing custody, trading, technology, and practice management services to independent advisory firms. Schwab serves approximately 16,000 individual RIA businesses with over $5 trillion in assets under management in accounts at Schwab. In Advisor Services, Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs) and their clients are at the center of everything we do. We have built our business on serving the needs of RIAs and advancing an industry that helps them and their clients thrive. This includes the third-party platforms that enable RIAs to run their businesses effectively.

Schwab Advisor Services is building an MCP (Model Context Platform) server that can support both internal and external needs, and the developer experience that powers it is critical to our success. As part of this effort, we are making critical updates to our Developer Portal which is designed to empower our third-party integrators - fintech firms, and technically sophisticated RIA firms - to seamlessly connect with Schwab''s capabilities and build the next generation of advisor-facing solutions. As Product Owner for the Developer Portal, you''ll report directly to the Director of Digital Product Management and own the end-to-end experience that enables our partner ecosystem to discover, integrate, and build on top of Schwab''s platform.

What you'll do:

• Own and drive the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for MCP capabilities in the Schwab''s developer portal, ensuring the platform meets the evolving needs of third-party integrators, AI application builders, and fintech partners
• Define and prioritize the developer experience - including API documentation, sandbox environments, authentication flows, onboarding journeys, and self-service tooling - so that external developers can integrate quickly and confidently
• Develop a thorough understanding of Schwab''s API capabilities and MCP architecture; serve as the connective tissue between internal platform teams and the external developer community
• Lead discovery and validation efforts with third-party integrators, fintech providers, and AI developers to identify friction points, unmet needs, and high-value portal enhancements
• Establish and track developer-centric success metrics - such as API adoption, integration velocity, developer satisfaction, and time-to-first-call - and communicate progress and outcomes to the Director and relevant stakeholders
• Partner closely with engineering, security, compliance, and design teams to deliver a scalable, secure, and reliable developer portal that reflects Schwab''s standards for quality and trust
• Champion the voice of the external developer community, continuously gathering feedback and translating it into prioritized backlog items, user stories, and acceptance criteria
• Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure the developer portal aligns with enterprise API strategy, MCP roadmap priorities, and the broader advisor technology ecosystem
• Stay current on generative AI trends, agent frameworks, and the tooling that AI application developers rely on, proactively identifying opportunities to evolve the portal to support these use cases
