Lead Data Product Owner - Finance

Dynatrace's Data & Analytics organization is on a mission to build a scalable, AI-ready and self-service data ecosystem across the company. As part of this mission, we are standing up a Data Product Management capability to proactively manage our internal data products, the canonical models, metrics and dashboards that serve as shared sources of truth across the business. This function bridges business and data teams — guiding quality and governance, coordinating execution and driving adoption.

About The Role

We are seeking a Lead Data Product Owner to own and advance a portfolio of data products serving the Finance organization. This person is accountable for the reliability, value and data maturity of Finance's core data assets — ensuring that what gets built is trusted, actively used and continuously improving. Alongside the Data Product Product Manager, this person co-owns the Finance data product strategy and stakeholder relationships. The Data Product Owner brings independent product judgment to both sides of the work — strategically guiding Finance stakeholders in how to think about and articulate their data need and guiding the analytics engineering team on what to build and how to design it. They actively shape and draft requirements rather than simply collecting and translating them and they independently lead the projects that deliver them. A core requirement of this role is the ability to influence how things get done — earning the trust of Finance leaders and the respect of technical teams in equal measure.

• Drive discoverability and data literacy; align with peer data product owners across G&A and GTM

Requirements

• 7+ years in data product management, analytics, BI or data management
• Bachelor's in Finance, Business, Information Systems, Data Analytics or a related field

• Exceptional ability to bridge technical and business communication — a core competency for this role
• Track record of influencing outcomes with engineers and business leaders
• Experience shaping and drafting requirements and leading projects amid conflicting priorities
