You'll drive the development of robust data pipelines, empowering businesses to harness the full potential of their data within the world’s leading analytics platform. Collaborate with top engineers, designers, and product teams to deliver an innovative, intelligent analytics experience—deeply integrated with Salesforce and Data Cloud.

Responsibilities:

• Develop and drive the vision and roadmap for integrating data sources, prioritizing feature enhancements based on user needs, and advancing data connectivity capabilities.

• Partner with engineering teams to design and deliver scalable, secure, and high-performance data connectors across multiple platforms.

• Gather and analyze user feedback on data connectivity challenges, leveraging usage data to identify areas for improvement

• Collaborate with customers, internal teams (engineering, sales, marketing, and support), and partners to drive successful product adoption.

• Work across platform constraints (entitlements, governance, semantics, performance, security) to ensure experiences are enterprise-ready and trustworthy.

• Lead cross-cloud collaboration to align dependencies, architecture and outcomes.

Must Have Qualifications:

• 10+ years of product management experience, specializing in end-to-end analytics data experiences including onboarding/setup and workflows that accelerate the path from raw data to analysis-ready, trusted insights.

• Proven ability to define product vision, prioritize features, and manage roadmaps while collaborating with cross-functional teams.

• Strong track record of leading teams, driving alignment, and successfully delivering data platforms and connectors.

• Expert in understanding user needs and translating them into clear, actionable product requirements.

• Hands-on experience with ETL/ELT processes and data connectivity features across different platforms.

• Strong understanding of APIs, authentication protocols, and data connection standards.

• Visionary Communication: A proven ability to transform "ambiguity" into a documented, high-clarity strategy. You leave meetings with a clear path forward that inspires confidence in both management and the engineering team.

• Owner mentality: you thrive in ambiguity, unblock teams, and drive execution with urgency and accountability

Nice to have Qualifications:

• Familiarity with Salesforce platform and Data Cloud fundamentals, including how customers manage users, permissions, and admin setup (profiles/permission sets/roles)

• Experience with the Tableau / CRM Analytics user base (or equivalent BI/analytics products), including common personas, adoption patterns, and admin workflows.

• Understanding of enterprise data governance and security (RBAC/ABAC, auditability, lineage) and how these requirements show up in analytics products

• Hands-on experience with data ecosystems (Snowflake/Databricks/BigQuery, etc.), including connectivity, performance considerations, and semantic modeling
