Help us challenge assumptions, uncover bias, and remove barriers-because progress starts with fresh ideas. You’ll find belonging, purpose, and a team that welcomes you-because when you feel valued, you’re empowered to do your best work.

Our data products power the insights, decisions, and operations of teams across Equinix.

We’re looking for a Senior Manager, Data Product Management to drive the execution of the data and AI product roadmap for our Go‑To‑Market Organisation. This is a hands‑on technical product management role that bridges business needs and technical delivery. You will engage with business stakeholders to understand their pain points, and work closely with engineering and data science teams to translate business needs into well‑defined data and AI products, manage delivery timelines, and ensure products meet business needs.

This role resides within Equinix’s Enterprise Data & Analytics team, and reports to the Senior Director of Data Product, Go‑To‑Market.

• Own day‑to‑day product management for assigned data and AI products; manage backlogs, define requirements, and drive delivery
• Translate business needs into detailed product requirements and user stories that engineering can execute against
• Review and assess data models, pipeline designs, and system architectures; identify risks and tradeoffs before they become problems
• Guide engineering toward pragmatic solutions when requirements are ambiguous or shifting
• Identify and manage risks in release delivery and communicate with stakeholder with clarity and mitigation plans

• Build trust‑based relationships with business stakeholders by understanding their strategy, pain points, and how data and AI solutions can help
• Set clear expectations, push back on low‑value requests, and educate stakeholders on what’s possible and what’s not
• Frame ambiguous problems, generate hypotheses, and drive to recommendations when there’s no clear precedent

• Support data product continuity during a major technology stack migration; ensure critical reporting capabilities remain intact as systems transition over multiple quarters
• Partner with engineering to design interim solutions that bridge old and new data models during migration
• Balance strategic roadmap work with operational responsibilities; protect time for building while keeping the lights on for products in 'maintenance' mode
• Manage data quality escalations and work with engineering to resolve issues before they erode user trust
• Build processes that reduce repeat firefighting - if the same thing breaks twice, fix it permanently

• 2-5 years in product management or technical programme management or software engineering
• Prior experience as a data analyst, data scientist, software engineer, or similar technical role
• Proficient in SQL - can write complex queries, or programming languages, troubleshoot performance issues, and evaluate whether a proposed data model will serve the use case
• Familiar with ETL/ELT concepts and data pipeline architecture
• Comfortable operating with incomplete information and competing priorities; able to engage credibly with engineering on technical tradeoffs
• Strong communication skills; able to translate between technical and business audiences
