Job description
Joining Actian’s Cloud Product Team
We are looking for a visionary product manager to join our growing product management team. The mission of the Cloud Product Team is to increase adoption of our cloud-based products by facilitating user trust in their data landscape and pipelines. You will collaborate with design, engineering, and other product teams to build product vision and drive execution, while working with teams spanning across different regions including Europe, US, Canada and Asia Pacific. We believe our customers are our North Star, they are at the center of everything we do, and we obsess in building products that solve customer problems and needs.
This is a remote role, and candidates should be based in the USA.
Product Managers at Actian are responsible for:
- Developing a product vision, strategy, roadmap, and plan for execution based on data-informed decisions. We believe all key decisions should be data-informed and executed with product sense, and not solely data-driven
- Leading an inclusive, collaborative, and inspiring team
- Understanding our customers’ needs and working with them to bring solutions to market
- Building relationships with key stakeholders and business partners
- Tracking and managing progress, risks, and dependencies of product deliverables
Cloud Product Team’s Principles:
- When the wind blows, build windmills not walls
- Always prioritize for “Customer Delight” - if it isn’t ruthless, it isn’t prioritization
- Grass is greener where you water it
You are:
- Customer driven and passionate about helping our customers be successful
- Committed to developing and owning the product strategy and roadmap
- Able to work cross-functionally and influence without authority
- Able to balance short-term goals and long-term vision
Minimum Qualifications:
- At least 5 years of experience as a Product Manager in the software industry
- Solid understanding of data products and data contracts
- Experience capturing and analyzing requirements (internal and external) including data points
- Worked in a multicultural and diverse environment
- Experience working with development teams on scalable, cloud-based SaaS solutions hosted on major cloud providers
- Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, Business, or a related field
Preferred Qualifications:
- Deep domain expertise in data management, including understanding of key user personas and use cases
