To continue to build on that promise, Provi is working to productize the immense amount of market data that we uniquely can offer to help all of our customers -- retailers, suppliers and distributors -- build stronger, more profitable businesses. As the Product Manager, Data Platform, you will work closely with the Senior Director, Commercial Analytics and Data Strategy to bring their vision to life, as well as with incredible engineering, design and product partners to build the future of alcohol beverage ordering. The Data as a Product team is responsible for developing our standalone data insights product, which will be a core revenue driver and essential to Provi’s monetization strategy in 2021 and beyond.
Responsibilities:
- Think holistically about Provi Pulse and our data platform, from the user-facing experiences it powers to its potential as a revenue generation engine for Provi.
- Define, prioritize and execute data-driven experiences across all Provi user segments -- suppliers, distributors and retailers -- by building a cohesive and strategic roadmap.
- Work with a team of engineers, data scientists, designers and other product managers to define, prototype and launch innovative solutions that meet customer needs and business goals in scalable ways.
- Assess, define and launch new revenue-generating opportunities for Provi’s use of data.
- Keep the user problem that you’re solving top of mind -- and ensure that the rest of the organization is as well. Intake user feedback -- both qualitative (user research studies, surveys, and focus groups) and quantitative (onboarding funnels, usage trends) -- to determine new feature sets and iterations on existing functionality.
- Be accountable for outcomes not output. Understand the business opportunity, the ROI of what you’re proposing and the impact of what you’ve built. Communicate that impact to your team and the broader organization. Do not ship it and forget it. What you do matters.
- Collaborate daily with engineering, design and operational leaders to build amazing and thoughtfully planned experiences.
- Own the execution and excellence of your product area. Be scrappy. Solve problems. Do what needs to be done.
- Be both a teacher and student to your peers in the product team. Help the product team as a whole continue to improve. Help facilitate and maintain our team dynamic: open, encouraging, productive. Lead with empathy.
- Above all strive to make the Provi team, business and product great.
Preferred Skills:
- At least 5 years of experience in execution of tech-related projects preferably in an Agile software development environment.
- Proven track record of building out commercialized data-driven software products as a product manager, analyst, data scientist or engineer.

- Extensive track record of getting things done and done well with lots of examples of projects you've spearheaded.
- Analytical mindset and data-driven decision-making experience.
