- Drive alignment across Product, Engineering, Analytics, and Business leaders.
- Lead Technical Data Product Execution
- Partner with Data Engineering to design governed data models, pipelines, and semantic layers.
- Own backlog refinement and acceptance criteria for data product increments.
- Ensure consistent metric definitions, lineage, and data quality standards.
- Balance short-term reporting needs with long-term scalability.
- Establish Governance & Self-Serve Guardrails
- Drive adoption of a governed semantic layer as the source of truth for enterprise KPIs.
- Reduce metric duplication and fragmented reporting logic.
- Enable self-service analytics within structured guardrails.
- Define and enforce data contracts and standards across domains.
- Enable AI & Advanced Use Cases
- Ensure data products are structured to support personalization, predictive models, and AI/LLM initiatives.
- Partner with analytics and data science teams to provide high-quality, reusable inputs.
- Promote an AI-ready data ecosystem through strong modeling and governance.
What You Bring:
Data & Platform Expertise
- 5+ years in Technical Product Ownership, Data Product Management, or similar roles.
- Experience with modern cloud data platforms (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Azure Synapse).
- Strong understanding of dimensional modeling, domain modeling, and metric governance.
- Experience working with BI and semantic layer tools (e.g., Looker, Tableau, Power BI, dbt).
Product & Business Mindset
- Experience owning roadmaps and prioritizing based on measurable business impact.
- Ability to frame problems clearly and define value hypotheses.
- Strong stakeholder management across technical and business audiences.
- Comfort navigating ambiguity and driving clarity.
Leadership
- Experience mentoring junior product owners or analysts.
- Strong communicator able to explain trade-offs between speed, quality, and scalability. Ability to influence without formal authority.
What Success Looks Like Within 12 months, you will have:
- Established governed, reusable data products across key business domains.
- Reduced metric duplication and inconsistent reporting.
- Improved dashboard and reporting delivery velocity.
- Enabled trusted self-service analytics.
- Strengthened the foundation for AI and advanced analytics initiatives.
