About the Role
As companies undergo digital transformation, they face significant challenges in adopting data-driven decision-making. In fact, McKinsey reports that 70% of digital transformation projects fall short, with 48% of executives citing "people challenges" as the main obstacle. To address these challenges, Empowerly seeks a Data Product Manager who will play a crucial role in leveraging data to drive decision-making and bridge the gap between marketing, operations, and engineering.
As a Data Product Manager, you will be at the forefront of developing and enhancing data-driven products that meet and exceed customer needs. Your role will involve understanding user challenges and working closely with front-end and back-end engineering teams. This position offers the opportunity to work in a collaborative, fast-paced environment and make a significant impact on Empowerly’s product offerings and overall business strategy.
You will ensure that all departments can harness data to answer critical business questions, improve internal processes, and optimize user experiences across the platform.
