New York, NYSan Francisco, CAProduct ManagementOnsite10+ YOE
Summary
Lead product strategy and execution for Stripe's merchant-facing data portfolio including Sigma and Data Pipeline. Own roadmap, lead PM team, and drive enterprise data access outcomes.
About the role
What You'll Do
- Set and own the product strategy for Stripe’s data products, defining the multi-year vision and translating it into a coherent roadmap that balances enterprise growth, self-serve expansion, and platform quality
- Lead and develop a PM team. Manage, mentor, and hire PMs; build a high-caliber team culture with strong product craft and clear ownership
- Drive revenue and retention outcomes. Deeply understand the commercial role of data products in Stripe's sales and self serve motions and build accordingly
- Define what "great" looks like for merchant data access — from schema design and query performance to delivery reliability, latency SLAs, and integrations with third-party warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Databricks)
- Partner with enterprise customers. Engage directly with Stripe's largest users to understand how they use and rely on their Stripe data, and feed those insights back into the roadmap
- Navigate deep technical complexity. Work fluently with data engineering and infrastructure teams on the underlying Reporting Data Warehouse and data pipeline architecture
- Anticipate the AI shift. Identify how AI-native workflows (agentic data access, natural language querying, automated reporting) should reshape the product surface over the next 2–3 years
- Communicate and influence broadly. Write crisp strategy docs, earn trust from senior stakeholders across Product, Sales, and Finance, and represent Data Products clearly at the leadership level
Who You Are
- 10+ years in product management, including experience leading or managing PM teams of 5+ PMs
- Deep expertise in data products. You have shipped at least one of: a BI/analytics tool, a data integration product, a warehouse connector, or a developer data API
- Strong commercial intuition. You understand how data products drive enterprise deal velocity, expansion, and retention, and you've worked closely with Sales and CS on product strategy
- Technically fluent. You can hold your own in discussions about data pipeline architecture, warehouse connectors, SQL query execution, and data delivery semantics; you don't need to write the code but you need to understand the tradeoffs
- Exceptional written communicator. You write with the clarity and precision Stripe's culture demands, from a tight decision memo to a multi-year strategy narrative
- High ownership instincts. You proactively identify what needs to happen, move fast without waiting for permission, and hold yourself accountable to outcomes
- Comfortable in a complex stakeholder environment. Data products touch engineering, enterprise sales, customer success, finance, and legal; you can align them without losing pace
Nice to Have
- Experience building products on top of or integrating with major cloud data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Databricks)
- Familiarity with Stripe's data model and the kinds of analytics questions merchants care about (payments, disputes, revenue recognition, reconciliation)
- Background in fintech or payments — you understand the data complexity that comes with operating across hundreds of payment methods, currencies, and regulatory regimes
