About the Role:
At Vantage, the Senior Data Product Manager is a member of our Data & Analytics team. The mission of the Data & Analytics team is to equip Vantage with the data infrastructure, platforms, and analytical capabilities needed to underwrite smarter, manage risk with precision, and move faster than our competitors.
This is a high-ownership, hands-on role. You will manage product roadmaps for key initiatives relying on our internal data platforms — the pipelines, data warehouse, transformation layers, and self-serve tooling that our data engineers, analysts, and data scientists depend on daily. You will work at the intersection of technology and business impact, translating data strategy and requirements into a sequenced roadmap that engineering can execute and stakeholders can trust.
The Senior Data Product Manager works closely with data engineering, reporting and business leads to define priorities, author detailed requirements and ensure solutions are adopted and delivering measurable value. This role is a leader in the full lifecycle of business requirements, solution design, build and test, deployment, and rollout.
This role reports to the VP of Data Governance & EDW. This is a remote or hybrid opportunity depending on location.
The base salary expectation for this role is between $130,000 and $175,000. Actual base salary for the selected candidate may be higher commensurate with candidate experience and expectations. Additionally, Vantage offers its colleagues performance-based bonus potential, strong health & welfare benefits, retirement plans with company match, competitive time off plans, a highly flexible work environment, and much more.

• Communicate roadmap direction and delivery status to both technical and business stakeholders with clarity and consistency.
Discovery & Requirements:
• Conduct continuous discovery with internal customers — analysts, underwriters, business leads, actuaries, data engineers — to surface and prioritize unmet data needs.
• Write crisp problem statements, user stories, and acceptance criteria that give engineering teams the clarity to execute without over-specifying the solution approach.
• Identify and eliminate friction in how the data team produces, consumes, and governs data across the organization.
• Elicit, analyze, and validate requirements across the full data lifecycle: sourcing, ingestion, transformation, storage, access, and consumption.
Delivery & Execution:
• Partner with data engineering to plan and deliver platform improvements in agile cadence; own sprint priorities, remove blockers, and make scoping trade-offs with clear rationale.
• Coordinate go-live plans including documentation, training, and rollout sequencing for internal users.
• Manage and track requirements throughout the delivery lifecycle, ensuring changes are reflected in sprint planning and communicated to stakeholders.
• Ensure new platform capabilities are transitioned to BAU operational processes and that adoption follows delivery.
Ideal Candidate Profile:
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
• 7+ years of experience in product management, with at least 3 years owning data platforms, data infrastructure, or analytics products in a complex organization.
