Product Manager
The Product Manager is accountable for ensuring that the product team solves meaningful customer problems in ways that deliver measurable business value. Rather than acting primarily as a project coordinator, requirements writer, or backlog administrator, the Product Manager leads through customer insight, product strategy, evidence-based decision-making, and close collaboration with design, engineering, data, operations, and business partners.
The Product Manager works as part of a durable, cross-functional product team that is given important problems to solve - not predetermined features to deliver. The team is measured by customer and business outcomes rather than output, activity, or adherence to an original project plan.
The Product Manager is accountable for product value and business viability, while partnering with design and engineering to address usability and feasibility. Together, the team discovers, delivers, measures, and continuously improves solutions that customers value and that work within the organization's strategic, financial, operational, legal, regulatory, security, and technology constraints.
The Product Manager also connects strategy and customer journeys across a broader product ecosystem, identifies opportunities for shared capabilities and reuse, and applies artificial intelligence to improve customer value, learning speed, decision quality, and product team efficiency.
