The Cint platform is built on a programmatic marketplace, which is the world’s largest, with nearly 300 million respondents in over 130 countries.

At Cint, we are committed to innovation and are rapidly expanding our portfolio of data solutions to power the next generation of insights. We are looking for passionate, results-oriented leaders to join us on this journey.

The Role

This is a strategic, high-impact opportunity to own and build the future of data at Cint. As the Principal Product Manager for Data Innovation, you will be responsible for defining and executing the product strategy for our emerging synthetic data and data collaboration products.

This role requires a unique blend of deep technical understanding, commercial acumen, and a "build-from-scratch" entrepreneurial mindset. You will be the company\'s subject matter expert, partnering closely with R&D, data science, and commercial leadership to bring a new category of products to market.

What You Will Do

• Own the Product Vision: Develop and promote a multi-year product vision for Cint\'s Data Innovation portfolio. This includes synthetic data products and other new data collaboration solutions. You will be responsible for driving key business KPIs, such as product adoption, revenue, and market penetration.

• Tell the Story: Masterfully articulate the "why" behind your product strategy. Bring complex customer and technical problems to life, inspiring and aligning senior leadership and the broader organization around your vision.

• Execute with Excellence: Conduct thorough opportunity assessments, backed by data and customer research, to validate assumptions and prioritize initiatives. Author clear, comprehensive product requirements and partner with R&D leadership to navigate complex technical trade-offs.

• Partner to Win: Build strong, trusted relationships with key stakeholders across R&D, Data Science, Commercial, Legal, and Marketing to ensure cross-functional alignment and a successful go-to-market.

Qualifications

What We Are Looking For

• Proven Product Leader: You have a proven track record of launching and scaling complex data products, platforms, or services from concept to market.

• Customer-Obsessed: You are an expert in translating customer problems from the ResTech and data space into clear, well-structured product requirements, backed by data and qualitative insights.

• Technical Data Expertise: You have direct experience managing the full lifecycle of AI/ML products: building, training, and fine-tuning models (e.g., LLMs). You have a solid understanding of the processes used to create, validate, and filter large-scale synthetic datasets and are comfortable discussing the trade-offs of alignment techniques (e.g., SFT, RLHF).

• Exceptional Communicator: You possess outstanding written and verbal communication skills and are seen as an expert storyteller. You can effectively partner with senior leadership and are skilled at managing complex stakeholder maps.

Why Join Us?

• Strategic Impact: You will be building a new, high-growth business line that is central to Cint\'s long-term strategy.

• Innovation: You will be on the cutting edge of ResTech and data technology, solving novel problems with a world-class R&D team.

• Global Reach: Cint is a global company with a distributed, flexible, and collaborative culture.

• Ownership: We empower our product leaders. You will have the autonomy and accountability to make a measurable impact on the business.
