Parsing and analysing vast amounts of data is a centrally important part of Groupon’s business: it helps us gain better insights into our customers’ needs as well as understand our own processes and identify ways in which we can improve. Our Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) is the heart of this system and we are looking for someone to join us as Senior Product Manager and help us shape the growth of this business-critical function.

The Right Person for the Job

As Senior Product Manager - EDW you will be managing a team that is responsible for meeting the data needs for various business lines. You will be a champion for the adoption and accuracy of existing products as well as developing new BI solutions.
