What You’ll Do

  • Own product outcomes and OKRs by defining measurable outcomes, establishing baselines, maintaining a product scorecard, and proactively managing trade-offs to deliver outcomes rather than only outputs.
  • Set product vision and strategy by developing a clear strategy narrative and roadmap, communicating intent, sequencing, trade-offs, and rationale to executives, stakeholders, and delivery teams.
  • Lead multi-team discovery across domains and shared services consumers, using research, analytics, instrumentation, and stakeholder input to validate problems, segment users, and define value hypotheses.
  • Prioritize enterprise demand by managing intake across competing needs using transparent criteria such as value, risk, effort, dependencies, and compliance.
  • Translate strategy into outcomes, epics, and acceptance criteria while establishing standards and decision guardrails that enable teams to execute consistently.
  • Partner with engineering, platform architecture, security, risk, compliance, governance, and operations teams to deliver capabilities, standards, and enablement that scale.
  • Define instrumentation and reporting for adoption, reliability, performance, quality, policy compliance, and time-to-value, using insights to drive continuous improvement.
  • Mentor Associate Product Owners and Product Owners by teaching discovery, outcome definition, prioritization, and stakeholder management to raise product maturity.
  • Establish product rituals and artifacts such as roadmap reviews, quarterly planning inputs, decision logs, and release communications to improve operating model rigor.
  • Define ownership and operating agreements across teams and customer segments, aligning governance forums and escalation paths to support fast, compliant decisions.

What We Are Looking For

  • Significant product management experience owning strategy, roadmap, prioritization, delivery partnership, adoption, and measurable outcomes for complex products, platforms, service experiences, CRM capabilities, or operational systems.
  • 5 years of hands-on experience leading Product Owners across multiple Salesforce platforms.
  • Demonstrated ability to define OKRs, instrument products, and manage to outcomes such as adoption, value realization, reliability, quality, risk, and compliance.
  • Strong Salesforce product strategy fluency across platforms and complex domains, including governance, operating models, service design, dependency management, and lifecycle planning from discovery through adoption.
  • Significant hands-on product experience with the Salesforce ecosystem, including partnership with Salesforce architects, administrators, developers, and integration teams.
  • Excellent stakeholder leadership and ability to influence without authority across engineering, security, risk, compliance, enterprise architecture, and business domains.
  • Experience identifying, shaping, or delivering AI-enabled products, automation capabilities, and intelligent workflow experiences.
  • Working understanding of practical AI use cases such as generative AI, case summarization, knowledge recommendations, intelligent routing, conversational experiences, automated assistance, decision support, and agentic workflows.
  • Exceptional strategic communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to frame problems, articulate trade-offs, and drive alignment with executives and delivery teams.
  • Expert knowledge of Azure DevOps to manage, prioritize, and execute backlog of work, including managing or creating dashboards, running reports, and building queries.
  • Current FINRA Series 99 and/or Series 7 license, or ability and expectation to successfully obtain required FINRA licensing within 12 months of employment.

What Success Looks Like

  • Enterprise Salesforce strategy has clear, actionable, measurable OKRs and a scorecard that leadership uses to manage performance and investment.
  • Adoption grows across target segments, with more users and teams adopting the product through reduced friction, improved self-service, and stronger onboarding.
  • AI creates measurable business value by improving efficiencies, guidance, knowledge access, summarization, and decision support while maintaining appropriate governance and controls.
  • The product experience improves through faster time-to-value, fewer recurring incidents or defects, clearer operational ownership, and reduced rework for delivery teams.
  • Stakeholders trust product decisions because prioritization is transparent, evidence-based, and aligned to risk, compliance, and business value.
