We're expanding our EU footprint
- with growing market access, a regional roadmap, and ambitions across equities, ETFs, derivatives, direct connectivity, securities lending, tax reporting, and tax-wrapper products. With a deep understanding of the regional regulatory landscape, including MiFID II / MiFIR, ESMA, CSDR, national competent-authority frameworks, and member-state tax and tax-wrapper regimes, you will shape the product strategy that enables Alpaca to scale its brokerage infrastructure across the EU. You'll decide what we build versus buy, how we sequence the region’s roadmap, and which partnerships and connectivity paths get us there
- and then ship the brokerage features, tax-wrapper functionality, integrations, and operational workflows that partners and institutional clients depend on every day. EU market access: scaling from initial access to full product coverage while meeting MiFID II / MiFIR, ESMA, and local NCA requirements.



EU broker partnerships: evaluating, onboarding, and integrating local brokers to expand coverage and resilience. Cross-border complexity: passporting, multi-jurisdiction onboarding, and coordinating between Alpaca's integral platform and EU market infrastructure. Tax and tax wrappers: building tax-wrapper account functionality (e.g. PEA / PEA-PME, ISK, PIR) and the tax surface underneath it
- tax lots / cost basis, dividend withholding, WHT reclaim, and country-specific tax reporting
- so partners can offer jurisdiction-specific wrappers on Alpaca, not just a generic brokerage account. Own brokerage products tailored for EU markets, including equities, ETFs, tax-wrapper accounts, and related regional offerings. Own the EU tax and tax-wrapper product surface end-to-end: wrapper eligibility and contribution rules, tax-lot / cost-basis tracking, withholding and reclaim, and the local reporting files partners and end-users need to stay compliant. Write product requirements and work with engineers to execute programs that meet local regulatory and market standards. Collaborate with local operations teams to ensure seamless integration between Alpaca's global platform and EU market infrastructure.
