These products power decision-making and business management across every function and region of the company, from warehouse floor operations to the executive team, and form the data foundation for Lineage’s analytics and AI ambitions.

In this role, you will take ownership of an established team of product managers and an existing product portfolio in active use worldwide, and you will be accountable for its next chapter: sharpening the strategy, raising the bar on product quality and adoption, evolving the platform to support advanced analytics and AI-driven capabilities, and ensuring that the business trusts — and acts on — the data these products deliver.

  • Engage stakeholders from frontline warehouse leaders to the C-suite to understand decision-making needs, translate them into product requirements, and communicate the “why” behind roadmap choices.

  • Coordinate with product leaders across the technology organization to align roadmaps, share data capabilities, and ensure cohesive execution across interconnected products.

  • Facilitate annual and quarterly planning for the portfolio, making transparent trade-offs across value, scope, budget, resources, dependencies, and timelines.

  • Manage relationships with third-party development teams and technology vendors that contribute to the portfolio, ensuring quality and value for investment.

Required Qualifications

  • 10+ years of product management experience, including 3+ years directly managing and developing product managers.

  • Demonstrated success owning data, analytics, or business intelligence products — e.g., data platforms, enterprise reporting, KPI/dashboarding tools, or data-as-a-product initiatives — at enterprise scale.

  • Strong technical acumen with modern cloud data platforms (e.g., Snowflake or equivalent), BI and visualization tools, and the fundamentals of data modeling, pipelines, and governance; able to engage credibly with engineers and data scientists.

  • Proven ability to inherit an existing product portfolio and team, quickly build credibility, and drive a step-change in strategy, execution, and outcomes.

  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to convey complex data concepts to non-technical audiences and to influence stakeholders at every level, including the C-suite.

  • Proven ability to lead change in large, complex, global organizations, and comfortoperatingin a fast-paced, highly visible environment.

  • Ability to travel up to 10% of the time.
