This role connects business collaborators, analytics, and engineering. It ensures the team delivers high-quality, scalable, and efficient data products that enable data-driven decision-making throughout the business. The ideal candidate will combine technical knowledge of data infrastructure with strong business insight, translating complex business needs into actionable data engineering requirements.

Product Ownership & Prioritization

• Partner with Solution Architects and Leads from other teams to ensure design decisions align with scalability and performance goals.
• Coordinate cross‑functional dependencies between Data Engineering, Analytics, and Product teams.

• Communicate technical progress, blockers, and priorities clearly to non‑technical team members.
• Facilitate sprint reviews, demos, and roadmap discussions to ensure transparency and alignment.

Experience

• Experience as a Technical Product Owner or Data Product Manager in a data engineering or analytics environment.
• Solid understanding of data platforms and pipelines (batch and real‑time ingestion).
• Hands‑on familiarity with Snowflake (or equivalent cloud data warehouse), Looker (or other BI tools), Airflow, Pub/Sub, or similar orchestration and ingestion frameworks.
• Experience with data infrastructure monitoring and optimization.
• Strong communication skills.
• Ability to translate business goals into actionable technical requirements.
