Alt https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/alt/jobs/alt.xyz is unlocking the value of alternative assets, starting with the $5 B trading-card market. We let collectors buy, sell, vault, and finance their cards in one place and we are backed by leaders at Stripe, Coinbase, Seven Seven Six, and pro athletes like Tom Brady and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Our next frontier is real-time pricing at scale—the Alt Value that powers every trade, loan, and product on the platform.
THE ROLE
Functionally the Vault is a high-end warehouse with sophisticated internal software and a marketplace bolted directly to it.
This is a builder seat, not a product management seat. You own the Vault from arrival to exit: ingest SLAs, intake and routing, exception handling and QC, outtake, international shipping, customs, insurance, carrier integrations, and the tooling that runs all of it. And you own it the whole way: you stand in the room and watch the bottleneck, you pull the station data yourself, you write the tool that removes it, you ship it, you watch what P90 does, you keep it or you kill it.
What this role is not: writing PRDs for someone else to implement, running a quarterly roadmap ritual, managing an ops pod, or translating between the warehouse and engineering. If that's the shape of your last five years, this probably isn't the right fit, and we'd rather say so up front than waste your time.
You report directly to the CEO. If you want a CEO in the build with you, this is that. If you want distance from the top, it isn't.
The metric you own: Time-to-Liquidity (median and P90). Supporting KPIs: ingest and outtake SLA adherence, cost per item processed (labor minutes, rework, fully loaded unit cost), throughput per FTE and items per week, error and rework rate, inventory activation rate (vaulted to live to sold), ship-and-decide velocity (tools and changes shipped per week), and Vault-related seller satisfaction.
WHAT YOU'LL OWN
- The end-to-end lifecycle, in code. Receiving and ingest, processing and routing, exception handling and QC, outtake and customer handoff. Define measurable SLAs at every stage, instrument them yourself so the numbers exist, enforce them, and hunt bottlenecks systematically instead of working around them. The station-level data that tells you where P90 went does not exist yet in the shape you'll need. You build that too.
- The Vault tooling, built not requested. Queue management, prioritization, labeling, SLA tracking, the exception taxonomy and the software that enforces it. Retool got the operation this far and it is now the ceiling. Replace it with durable software, starting with the version you write yourself and put in fr
