Who you are

- Technical depth. You can hold your own with engineers on systems design, architecture, and scaling tradeoffs, and turn those discussions into clear product decisions. You've shipped real product in a technical domain (data platforms, events, distributed systems, identity, or cross-product platforms)

- Customer obsession. You get close enough to customers to separate what they really need from what they ask for, and you have the conviction to build for the need, even in front of large enterprise customers and in live deals

- Outcome mindset. You judge your work by the result it drove, not the amount you shipped

- Clear communication. You write clearly and have an ability to synthesize many moving parts into something engineers, customers, and execs can all act on

- Fast ramp. You've shown a history of picking up new concepts and new domains quickly and getting to real depth, and you lean into AI when you need to learn and ramp even faster

What the job involves

- You'll own our real-time products within Customer Data Infrastructure. This team is focused on capturing user behavior as it happens and enabling our customers to act on it in the moment. You'll be driving product decisions across an early but maturing, technically demanding suite that already powers some of our largest enterprise deployments:

- Events: the event collection pipeline, SDKs, and tooling to get live customer data flowing reliably at scale

- Real-Time Evaluation: the systems to power sub-second computation of user traits and audience membership, layering event stream data on top of historical warehouse data for a complete, unlimited real-time CDP

- Personalization API: the low-latency APIs that serve unified customer data to live experiences in milliseconds

- You'll drive roadmap and execution across the Real-Time suite: building specs and turning them into shipped product, partnering closely with engineering on architecture and scaling decisions, and representing the suite in front of some of the world's largest brands.
