About The Role

The Senior Product Manager for the Activate product group at RudderStack will manage the components of our platform that enable users to send data to downstream business tools, SaaS platforms, and APIs. This portfolio includes integrations (cloud, audience/list, API, webhook) as well as our various user flows for syncing warehouse data (tables, models, audiences). This role involves building deep relationships with customers to understand their problems, owning the roadmap and execution of the product group as a whole, with the goal of creating a streamlined experience for getting both event stream and warehouse data into downstream systems where it is used and put to work by the data team’s internal stakeholders. This includes a strong vision for the integration experience as a whole. Additionally, it is critical that these product experiences are deeply integrated into other parts of the RudderStack platform, including data collection, cataloging, governance, and the customer 360.

RudderStack is a remote company, though we do have one office in the eastern US. This role needs to be in EST, but can be a remote role. If there is a desire to relocate to the East Coast Office, we will cover expenses.
