What You'll Do:
Define the long‑term product vision and roadmap for data governance and MDM capabilities, aligning with enterprise data strategy and business outcomes
Translate business, regulatory, and technical needs into clear product requirements for governance services, including metadata management, data lineage, data catalogs, data quality monitoring, and access policies
Partner with data engineering teams to design and implement scalable governance frameworks and MDM solutions that support self‑service analytics and compliance
Lead the development of master data models and entity domains (e.g., customer, account, product, location) in collaboration with business and technical stakeholders
Establish and track success metrics for data quality, stewardship effectiveness, metadata completeness, and adoption of governed data domains
Champion data ownership models, stewardship frameworks, and governance policies consistent with DAMA‑DMBOK, DCAM, or data mesh principles
Collaborate with Security, Legal, and Compliance teams to ensure adherence to privacy regulations, data retention policies, and access control standards
Influence enterprise data strategy by promoting a culture of data accountability and enabling governed, reusable data products across business units
Communicate complex governance concepts to executive audiences using clear, value‑oriented storytelling and ROI‑driven narratives
Drive adoption of governance and MDM platforms through user training, documentation, and change management initiatives
What You Have:
8-10+ years of product management experience, with at least 3 years focused on data governance, data platforms, or master data management
Demonstrated success delivering cross‑functional data initiatives that improved business outcomes, data quality, and regulatory compliance
Familiarity with modern data stack architectures, including cloud data platforms (Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery), transformation tools (dbt), and orchestration frameworks
Strong stakeholder management and executive communication skills, with the ability to influence without direct authority and align diverse teams around a unified vision
Experience defining and tracking product KPIs and using data to inform prioritization and roadmap decisions
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Business, or a related field (MBA or advanced degree preferred)
A passion for building scalable, user‑friendly data products that empower decision‑making and foster trust in data across the organization
B2B experience is a plus
Nice To Have:
Deep understanding of data governance frameworks (e.g., DAMA‑DMBOK, DCAM) and MDM best practices, including golden record management and data stewardship models
Hands‑on experience with MDM technologies (e.g., Reltio, Informatica MDM, Semarchy, Profisee) and data governance platforms (e.g., Collibra, Alation, Atlan, Ataccama)
The national cash compensation range for this role is $203,000 - $242,000.
