About the Role

As a Staff Technical Product Manager in Enterprise Technology, you will own the technical product direction and lifecycle for one or more enterprise technology domains. You will work closely with Business teams and Engineering to define what our systems need to do, set the roadmap in partnership with the teams that own the business process, and make sure the technology keeps pace with a growing global business.

This is a senior individual contributor role with broad influence across complex systems and business processes. You bring deep domain expertise, technical depth and product judgment, and you help set the standard for how Technical Product works across Enterprise Technology. AI and automation are increasingly part of how we work; you are expected to use them directly in your own work and to identify where they create meaningful value in your domain.

What You'll Do

  • Own one or more enterprise systems end to end: roadmap, backlog and priority, requirements, and the health of the system over its full lifecycle.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional business partners to translate operational goals into functional, data, API, and platform requirements that engineering teams can build against.
  • Serve as the single accountable owner for how your systems behave in production. You hold system knowledge organization depends on, decide what a problem means for the roadmap, and determine when a change requires Engineering.
  • Maintain first-hand technical depth across your systems so that you can analyze data, investigate issues independently, identify recurring operational patterns, and translate system diagnostics into roadmap priorities.
  • Understand software partner roadmaps, identify feature needs, handle vendor issues, and align external updates with internal plans.
  • Evaluate product impact and drive continuous optimization by tracking usage adoption, platform health metrics, support ticket trends, and core business outcomes to justify future roadmap expansion.

About You

  • 15+ years of relevant experience, including significant experience in technical product management, enterprise systems or technology product ownership, with at least 3 years at senior or principal scope.
  • Demonstrated experience owning the roadmap and full lifecycle of complex enterprise systems, including upgrades, vendor changes and adoption, not only launches.
  • Strong technical fluency across APIs, integrations, data, cloud platforms and enterprise applications, and the ability to write requirements engineers can execute against.
  • Comfortable working directly with data and systems: SQL or equivalent, reading logs, reproducing and diagnosing issues.
  • Experience making prioritization and product decisions across multiple stakeholders, dependencies and competing business needs, and holding the line between what the system must do and how it is built.
  • Demonstrated hands-on use of AI-assisted tools in product work, with the ability and willingness to incorporate new capabilities into requirements, analysis, documentation and day-to-day productivity.
  • Experience as the accountable owner of a system and the single point of contact for the teams that use it, including diagnosing issues to the point where it is clear whether an engineering change is needed.
  • Ability to influence senior stakeholders and technical teams across a globally distributed organization without relying on formal authority.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with compliance-sensitive or audit-controlled systems.
  • Experience with large-scale integrations, integration platforms or data workflows.
  • Experience in media, entertainment or streaming.
  • Prior experience in engineering, systems analysis, platform administration or another hands-on technical discipline.
