Lead Product Manager - Customer Success

What you’ll do

As a Lead Product Manager on the Applications Product Management team, you own high-impact internal application capabilities that power Docusign's go-to-market, customer success, and operations teams. You define the product vision, roadmap, and end-to-end experience for your portfolio, partnering closely with business stakeholders and engineering to deliver measurable outcomes for growth, efficiency, and customer experience.

This position is an individual contributor role reporting to the Sr. Director, Application Product Management.

Responsibility

• Define a multi-year product and technology roadmap for your application domain, aligned to company growth goals (e.g., retention, NRR, CSAT, operational efficiency) and IAM strategy

• Act as a strategic partner to business stakeholders (e.g., Customer Success, Operations), translating their objectives (such as reducing time-to-resolution or improving digital self-service) into clear product requirements and system capabilities

• Drive structured "buy vs. build" decisions for internal tools and platforms, evaluating market solutions versus custom development and shaping vendor integration strategies where appropriate

• Map end-to-end user journeys to identify bottlenecks and "swivel-chair" workflows, and design experiences that simplify work for internal users while improving customer outcomes

• Lead the strategy for unified data and a 360-degree view of key entities (e.g., customers, accounts, products), ensuring data flows reliably across CRM, billing, product usage, and support systems

• Define and instrument success metrics for your products (e.g., internal NPS, adoption, time-to-value, deflection, agent utilization) and use these to prioritize and validate roadmap investments

• Own the full product lifecycle: problem discovery, requirements, prioritization, backlog management, sprint planning, and acceptance; roll up your sleeves to work through configuration and implementation details as needed

• Lead change management for new capabilities, partnering with enablement and operations to deliver training, communications, and adoption programs that land changes successfully with end users

• Operate as a "services product" leader for your area, protecting engineering from ad-hoc requests by maintaining a transparent, ROI-driven backlog and making tradeoffs explicit to stakeholders

• Experience shipping AI‑or ML‑powered capabilities (for example, chatbots, intelligent routing, recommendations, or predictive insights) and using data to monitor and improve them over time
