The role defines where digital capabilities create measurable customer and business value across equipment, fluids, analytical services, commissioning, operations, and lifecycle management. This product manager converts customer workflows and data needs into a prioritized roadmap of monitoring, connectivity, analytics, alerts, reporting, integrations, and digitally enabled services. The role is accountable for product-market fit, requirements, commercialization, adoption, and lifecycle performance. A critical mandate is to establish disciplined digital product-development and release processes, with clear documentation of user needs, requirements, architecture dependencies, security and data decisions, testing, release readiness, adoption, support, and lifecycle changes.\nWhat You Will Do\nOwn the digital portfolio strategy, roadmap, requirements, launch plans, and lifecycle performance for Data Center offerings.\nIdentify and prioritize customer problems that can be solved through monitoring, telemetry, analytics, alerts, reporting, workflow, remote support, optimization, and integration.\nDefine target users, use cases, customer outcomes, product requirements, commercial models, and success metrics for each digital offer.\nBuild the roadmap for connected equipment and services across CDUs, TCS piping, coolant and water analytics, commissioning, maintenance, and lifecycle management.\nPartner with Digital, Software, Engineering, cybersecurity, data governance, Legal, and IT teams to translate market needs into executable capabilities and release priorities.\nDefine data, connectivity, interoperability, API, user-experience, security, privacy, reliability, and support requirements for mission-critical data center environments.\nLead customer discovery, concept testing, pilots, and market validation before scaling development and commercialization.\nDevelop business cases, packaging, pricing, subscription or service models, cost-to-serve assumptions, and portfolio economics.\nDrive launch readiness with Product Marketing, Sales, Services, Operations, and Support, including demos, documentation, training, onboarding, and adoption plans.\nMeasure active use, adoption, attach, renewal, customer outcomes, reliability, support demand, revenue, and margin; use evidence to prioritize enhancements or retire low-value capabilities.\nEnsure digital offerings integrate with the broader Data Center product and services portfolio rather than becoming disconnected tools or custom projects.\nEstablish and execute a repeatable digital product-development process spanning discovery, validation, requirements, prioritization, design, development, testing, cybersecurity and privacy review, release readiness, launch, adoption, support, and retirement.\nCreate and maintain product documentation including personas, use cases, workflows, product requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, data definitions, integration requirements, release criteria, decision logs, roadmaps, and lifecycle records.\nMaintain traceability from validated customer problems through requirements, development, testing, release, adoption metrics, and subsequent product decisions.\nDefine clear handoffs, decision rights, documentation standards, release controls, and escalation paths across Product Management, Software, Engineering, Cybersecurity, Data, IT, Services, Support, and Commercial teams.\nLead recurring roadmap, backlog, release-readiness, and post-launch reviews that produce documented decisions, owners, deadlines, corrective actions, and process improvements.\nMinimum Qualifications\nBachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Business, or a related field.\n6+ years of experience in product management, digital product management, software, analytics, connected products, or technology-enabled industrial services.\nExperience developing and launching digital products from customer discovery through requirements, release, commercialization, adoption, and lifecycle management.\nAbility to work with software, data, engineering, cybersecurity, commercial, and operational teams.\nExperience building business cases, roadmaps, product requirements, pricing or packaging, and product KPIs.\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience with data centers, industrial IoT, connected equipment, remote monitoring, asset health, energy or thermal optimization, or field-service workflows.\nKnowledge of telemetry, sensors, controls, APIs, cloud platforms, data architecture, analytics, cybersecurity, and enterprise-system integration.\nExperience with recurring-revenue, subscription, monitoring-as-a-service, or digitally enabled service offerings.\nExperience in secure, high-availability, or mission-critical customer environments.\nMBA or advanced technical degree.\nWhat Success Looks Like\nA focused digital roadmap tied to high-value customer workflows and measurable outcomes.\nDigital capabilities that increase equipment and service differentiation, attach, adoption, retention, and recurring revenue.\nSuccessful pilots that progress to scalable, commercially supported offers rather than remaining custom demonstrations.\nReliable, secure, usable products with clear ownership across launch, onboarding, support, improvement, and retirement.\nA consistently executed digital product-development and release process with defined deliverables, owners, approval criteria, and controls.\nCurrent and accessible product documentation that supports development, testing, cybersecurity review, launch, onboarding, support, and lifecycle management.\nFewer unclear requirements, late scope changes, release-readiness gaps, support handoff issues, and custom solutions that cannot scale.\nLeadership Capabilities\nCustomer-backed judgment: distinguishes repeatable market needs from isolated requests and makes explicit portfolio trade-offs.\nSystems thinking: understands how equipment, fluids, controls, digital capabilities, services, and lifecycle economics work together.\nCommercial ownership: connects roadmap decisions to customer value, revenue, margin, adoption, and long-term portfolio health.\nCross-functional leadership: creates clarity across technical, commercial, operational, and regional teams without overstepping functional ownership.\nBias for execution: converts strategy into prioritized requirements, decisions, launches, metrics, and sustained results.\nEqual Opportunity\nWe are committed to equal employment opportunity and to building an inclusive workplace.
