Options, a cloud-enabled managed service and IT infrastructure provider, has expanded its New York management team with the appointment of Micah Kroeze as vice president of product management. Kroeze previously held positions at NYSE Technologies and Vela Trading Systems, where he facilitated the growth of the firm’s market data and hosted services product lines.

At Options, Kroeze will be tasked with supporting business growth and product development, and will be responsible for developing the firm’s managed colocation services, which have recently expanded to 25 global venues and are used by over 200 firms.

Kroeze’s appointment is another step in Options’ growth initiative that began in 2017 when the firm received investment from private equity firm Bregal Sagemount. Kroeze was elected to the FISD executive committee in January 2018.
