Product Manager
About the job
This position is needed to understand the needs of our end customers in the global communications market and build a platform to help internal teams handle their data. Working side by side with other product managers and engineering counterparts across Twilio R&D, you will collaborate to craft and deliver a vision for computing on streaming data at Twilio.
Products are built on data. From the developers of a service, to their managers, compliance teams, and executives all need to know the state of systems and their activity. This team manages the flow of this data within Twilio, securing it, and ensuring everybody that is allowed can access it.
We are also the bridge to the reporting systems trusted by customers, executives and shareholders. Processing has to happen in the pipeline to get insight in real time. We are successful when we make this easy for engineers.
Responsibilities
In this role, you’ll:
- Manage product backlog and roadmap for the Twilio Data Catalog. Solicit customer requirements from many – often opposing – sources, prioritize, and work with engineering and design to deliver.
- Partner with various privacy, governance teams to handle user sensitive data based on region-specific regulations.
- Be an expert and evangelize the use of a central catalog for Compliance, Analytics and AI use cases.
- Track and resolve dependencies across organizations to maintain delivery timelines.
Qualifications
Not all applicants will have skills that match a job description exactly. Twilio values diverse experiences in other industries, and we encourage everyone who meets the required qualifications to apply.
While having “desired” qualifications make for a strong candidate, we encourage applicants with alternative experiences to also apply. If your career is just starting or hasn’t followed a traditional path, don’t let that stop you from considering Twilio. We are always looking for people who will bring something new to the table!
