Meet Peter Mariner, a Director of Product Development at FCAT! Working with FCAT's research and development team, Peter helps to evaluate and track important trends in technology and society to identify, develop, and bring new products to life. 📈 How did you get into product development? I started as an analyst and gained experience working directly with brokerage technology, which has been incredibly helpful in guiding product vision and development. 🦾 What’s your favorite part of your role? Aside from the opportunity to work with brilliant people, I love being on the cutting edge of innovation in the finance industry and considering how new technologies will disrupt the status quo. 💼 What’s one of your most significant Fidelity career highlights? Participating in an internal rotational program opened my eyes to new parts of the company, which ultimately sparked an interest in emerging technologies like blockchain and AI. My rotational experience opened the door to FCAT and allowed me to be immersed in these new technologies and their potential impact every day. 🚗 What about your field or industry excites you most? The democratization of finance and innovation in alternative investments — I love the idea of owning a fraction of a Picasso painting or a classic car and having the flexibility to buy more or sell these assets easily. #FidelityAssociate
