What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Product Manager position at PowerPlan, Inc?
Overview
We're looking for a Senior Product Manager, Platform to lead the development of our common cloud platform, NXT, and its shared capabilities. You'll own the technical direction of Data Hub — PowerPlan's core data product — and shape how data flows across every NXT product, including how it's prepared and positioned for emerging AI-driven use cases.
This isn't a strategy-and-marketing role that sits apart from delivery. You'll be embedded with the Scrum team's daily standups, sprint ceremonies, and ongoing refinement, fielding customer calls during research and handling escalations when a project or production customer needs product involved. Success depends on close, day-to-day collaboration with Development Leads, Architects, Design, and the Services and Operations teams.
Responsibilities
Success will be measured by how well Data Hub's technical direction holds up under Development, Cloud, and Architecture scrutiny, and by how directly your product decisions show up in customer-facing reporting, analytics, and AI-driven use cases.
- Own the long-term technical roadmap for Data Hub, partnering with Development, Cloud, and Architecture leads.
- Reframe the platform's data layer from backend infrastructure into a real customer-facing value-add that powers reporting, analytics, and AI-driven use cases.
- Define product requirements, planning, and UX decisions for shared platform capabilities — APIs, adapters, reporting, and security layers.
- Shape how platform data is structured and exposed for AI-driven use cases, working hands-on with tools like Databricks.
- Bring AI tools into your own product management practice to speed up research, roadmap work, and product reviews.
- Identify new NXT expansion opportunities rooted in real customer and industry data-access needs.
Qualifications
- 7-10 years of enterprise software product management experience, with a track record of increasing responsibility.
- Proven experience owning Data Hub or comparable core data infrastructure, including technical improvement planning with Development, Cloud, and Architecture.
- Real, hands-on experience with big data tooling — Databricks or equivalent — and modern data architecture.
- Comfort using AI tools in your own product management practice, and staying current on how AI is reshaping the discipline.
- Experience driving requirements for shared platform capabilities used across multiple product teams.
- Comfort working within a Scrum framework, and fielding customer calls for discovery and production escalations.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Business, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
- Strong cross-functional collaboration experience, partnering closely with Development, Architecture, Design, Cloud, and Services/Operations teams.
Preferred
- A former software engineer or cloud engineer background.
