What are the responsibilities and job description for the Climate Data Utility - Data Product Manager - 9 Month Contract position at Bloomberg L.P.?
Description & Requirements
At Climate Data Utility, our mission is to provide a trusted, central source of company-level climate data that is transparent and openly accessible to all. Our efforts started in 2022 when the Climate Data Steering Committee published recommendations for the development of a unified, global, open climate data repository. A proof of concept of the Climate Data Utility was launched during the UN's Climate Change Conference (COP28) and is publicly accessible at climatedatautility.org
Over the past 3 years, we have focused on building a platform incorporating historical data across a wide set of company emissions data. As we start to lay out the work for the next few years, we are working to significantly expand the sources of data as we grow the global coverage and access of the platform.
The Role
As part of the Climate Data Utility team, you will work closely with the Product, Engineering, Design, and Data teams to deliver key outcomes. You will:
Support product strategy and roadmap execution by helping define and communicate goals, initiatives, success metrics, and outcomes, and translating business needs into actionable product plans.
Support end-to-end delivery of product initiatives (with the product team) from requirements through design, development, testing, release, rollout, and adoption-helping ensure on-time, high-quality execution.
Partner with Engineering on solution design and delivery planning by clarifying technical tradeoffs, aligning on scope/estimates/dependencies, and ensuring work is broken down into clear deliverables.
Translate technical and business needs into clear product requirements (user stories, acceptance criteria, data/technical specs) and support teams through implementation by maintaining clarity and alignment.
Contribute to prioritization and planning with leadership, users/stakeholders, and Engineering-balancing impact, effort, risk, and timelines.
Support vendor delivery by aligning expectations and milestones, tracking progress, surfacing risks early, and helping ensure vendors meet quality and delivery commitments.
Coordinate cross-functionally across Engineering, Data, Tech, Operations, and Data Analysis to ensure work is aligned with business objectives, consistently communicated, and delivered as planned.
Champion strong UX/UI delivery in partnership with Design and Engineering by contributing to intuitive workflows, information architecture, and consistent UI patterns.
Support user discovery and validation (interviews, usability testing, journey mapping) and translate insights into UX requirements, prototypes, and iterative improvements with the broader team.
Track and report product performance by supporting KPI definition, maintaining dashboards/metrics, monitoring trends, and using insights to guide improvements and adoption.
Support stakeholder alignment by helping maintain accurate product narratives, documentation, release notes, and consistent messaging across internal and external stakeholders.
You'll need to have:
5 years of Product Management / Technical Product Management experience, delivering software or data products in close partnership with Engineering.
A user- and stakeholder-first mindset with excellent written and verbal communication, able to tailor messaging to technical and non-technical audiences; proven ability to build strong relationships internally and externally.
Strong stakeholder management and cross-functional leadership skills, including aligning senior stakeholders and driving outcomes across multiple teams through influence.
Ability to translate complex technical requirements into clear product requirements (priorities, outcomes, user stories/acceptance criteria as needed) and communicate product context back to technical teams.
Experience contributing to product vision and roadmaps, assessing technical trade-offs, balancing competing priorities, and managing releases end-to-end.
Demonstrated ability to support delivery planning and execution with Engineering- helping manage scope, dependencies, estimates, and delivery timelines with accountability.
Hands-on experience managing external vendors/partners and delivering across distributed/global teams, including milestone tracking, risk/issue management, and timely escalation.
Strong working knowledge of Agile delivery, including backlog/workflow management in Jira.
A high-ownership, self-starter approach with a consistent record of meeting hard deadlines, working autonomously, and proactively identifying and escalating risks early.
We'd love to see:
In-depth knowledge of current climate disclosure regulatory environment, and the intersection of climate data with key user workflows.
Experience with strategic and policy-related programs
Salary Range = 100 - 110 USD Hourly
The referenced salary range is based on the Company's good faith belief at the time of posting. Actual compensation may vary based on factors such as geographic location, work experience, market conditions, education/training and skill level.
We offer one of the most comprehensive and generous benefits plans available and offer a range of total rewards that may include merit increases, incentive compensation (exempt roles only), paid holidays, paid time off, medical, dental, vision, short and long term disability benefits, 401(k) match, life insurance, and various wellness programs, among others. The Company does not provide benefits directly to contingent workers/contractors and interns.
