• Translate prioritized use cases into a product charter with clear scope, success measures, acceptance criteria, requirements, domains, source systems, owners, consumers, and dependencies.
• Own assigned data products across their lifecycle from discovery through deployment, marketplace publication, adoption, and enhancement, maintaining the roadmap, prioritized backlog, readiness evidence, metadata record, adoption plan, and performance scorecard.
• Lead domain-aligned data product squad(s) and align business stakeholders, data stewards, data modelers, architects, engineers, platform teams, and delivery partners on priorities, responsibilities, decisions, and required artifacts and approvals.
• Establish governance and build readiness by defining ownership, business definitions, metadata, data-quality requirements, semantic standards, and reusable data models validated against business use cases.
• Coordinate delivery handoffs, resolve issues within the product team, and escalate consumer-impacting risks, dependencies, funding needs, policy questions, and cross-product trade-offs.
• Prepare products for certification, marketplace publication, and consumer onboarding with complete documentation, support models, service-level agreements, approved metadata, and consumer guidance.
• Drive stakeholder decisions and continuous improvement by representing products in governance forums; monitoring adoption, usability, realized value, reuse, quality, service performance, and feedback; prioritizing enhancements; and reporting progress, risks, performance, and outcomes.

• Strong communication and translation skills across business and technical teams, with the ability to influence stakeholders and coordinate specialists in a matrixed environment without direct authority.
• Understanding of requirements, source systems, data modeling, governance, data quality, integration, and data consumption.
• Familiarity with enterprise data platforms, data marketplaces, data mesh or domain-oriented models, metadata, lineage, business glossaries, stewardship, and data-quality rules; experience with governance platforms such as Alation is an asset.
