How you can make a difference
Your new role and environment.
The Center of Excellence (CoE) Data Insights & Analytics is responsible for the design, development and operation of the regional European Azure Data Platform and is supporting the local business/brands and IT teams in generating value from their data assets.
The underlying business use cases cover different areas such as Loyalty & Personalization, Reporting & Dashboarding, Data Science & AI Analytics or Data Monetization.
Our mission is to provide our internal customers with platform capabilities which are delivered “as a service” and ensure a seamless experience to deliver data products.
The Product Manager (Azure Data Platform) is responsible for defining the roadmap of platform capabilities that will enable the different product teams operating on the platform.
Key responsibilities of your role.
As Product Manager, you will articulate the short and long term technology roadmap around 3 major focus areas:
- Platform infrastructure services which are meant to ensure security, accessibility, compliance, scalability and performance for both the production and non-production environments of the platform;
- Quality & Automation frameworks which are meant to support and orchestrate the SDLC (software development lifecycle) and operational support processes
- Observability framework to support predictive maintenance and FinOps
With the support of platform scrum team, you develop and own both the vision and the execution strategy for the capabilities under your responsibility. This entails:
- Steering the delivery of the Platform roadmap and managing its dependencies with the Product roadmap owned by the Business Product Manager(s);
- Promoting platform capabilities to all local and regional Data & Analytics teams operating on the platform (a.o. via roadshows, demos) to ensure business adoption
- Owning the onboarding process supporting new joiners in understanding how to use the platform (a.o. via regular training sessions, up to date “how to” guides, etc)
- Ensuring alignment with portfolio priorities and overall budget / TCO considerations;
- Improving the platform efficiency and automation level to contribute to operational excellence objectives.
