Director of Product

Why Great Gray?

At Great Gray Group, we strive to set the bar for the retirement services industry. Our goal is to deliver advanced retirement solutions that combine our core fiduciary services with robust investment options, innovative technology, and dedicated client service. We focus on making choices clearer, transitions smoother, and the client experience more delightful. Complacency isn't in our vocabulary. Every day, we look for opportunities to better serve our clients, be an excellent business partner, and earn the trust of those who rely on us.

Great Gray is looking to add a Director of Product to own the data and experience strategy for a key segment of our retirement investment ecosystem. This role sits at the intersection of deep stakeholder relationships, data quality, and product outcomes — responsible for understanding how one side of the ecosystem thinks, what they need, and how Great Gray can build products and partnerships that create compounding value for them and across the platform.

This is not a pure management role. You will lead a product sub-team while also running strategic initiatives as a senior individual contributor: shaping solutions, driving roadmap decisions, and building the external relationships that translate into better data access, deeper integrations, and stronger outcomes. The person who thrives here brings a point of view about how their corner of the ecosystem works, earns trust with the stakeholders in it, and builds products that make the broader retirement ecosystem flywheel more powerful.

Great Gray currently supports a hybrid work model with 4 days onsite, and 1 day remote.

Visa sponsorship or transfer of an existing visa is not available for this position. Applicants must be authorized to work directly for any employer in the United States without visa sponsorship or transfer.
