Senior Product Manager - Observability

Location: Bengaluru

About the Role

Are you a seasoned Product Manager with a deep understanding of SaaS products and a passion for measuring and reporting on product and feature usage, deployment success, adoption, and consumption metrics? Cognite is seeking a Senior Product Manager to join our growing team in Bangalore to lead the addition of usage analytics to our SaaS product Cognite Data Fusion (CDF). This is a unique opportunity to build and lead the future of our CDF, making industrial data ops seamless and intelligent.

As a Senior Product Manager for Cognite Data Fusion Cloud Deployments Department, you‘ll be instrumental in shaping the strategy and execution for how we monitor and track how users work with CDF. This role extends beyond traditional product management; we‘re seeking someone who can drive innovation, particularly through the application of artificial intelligence, to revolutionize the user experience for consuming and deploying CDF across new customers and industries.

You will work with a team responsible for metering and setting limits on services and applications in CDF. The team delivers data to finance, sales, customers, partners, and product management to help stakeholders make informed decisions about rolling out CDF in organizations, upselling SaaS contracts, invoicing, deploying new functionality, and evaluating the success of new features. Your contribution will be to ensure that we focus on the right signals to measure, provide the best metrics and analytics to support stakeholders, and ensure sufficient data quality to support informed decisions.

You‘ll be among the first Product Managers in our Bangalore office, with the potential to grow into a leadership role as we build out a dedicated team around you.
