Head of Product - Reciprocal Deposits
About the role
In this exciting new opportunity, you'll be responsible for leading the product build for Keystone Reciprocal Deposits, a governed network service that helps banks retain large deposit relationships, support expanded FDIC insurance coverage above $250,000, and reduce operational drag across placement, matching, recalls, reconciliations, reporting, and audit evidence.
You'll own product direction, design choices, launch readiness, adoption, pricing inputs, sales enablement, customer feedback loops, and the operating mechanisms that determine whether the product works commercially, not just technically.
About The Team

Product Execution
- Write high-quality PRDs, launch plans, operating requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, and decision memos
- Own requirements for customer enrollment, bank onboarding, depositor exclusions, insurance cap enforcement, bank capacity profiles, allocation logic, and reciprocal matching

Technical Product Leadership

- Own product decisions around net versus gross settlement evidence, ledger versus off-ledger accounting records, batch versus intraday processing, and exception/fallback handling
Operational and Regulatory Readiness
- Define product controls for pass-through recordkeeping support, reciprocal classification support, thresholds, exclusions, default handling, disclosures, and audit evidence
