2,516 jobs for "Data Product Manager Lead"

Apple's Finance and IS&T organizations are partnering to modernize how financial data is posted, reconciled, and governed across a large, highly integrated applications landscape. We are seeking a Product Manager Technical to sit at the intersection of finance business partners and IS&T engineering, driving the future direction, vision, and strategy for financial postings across all applications and platforms. This is a crucial role for someone who can operate equally well in strategic architecture conversations and in the operational rigor of running large, cross-functional programs. You will also take on delivery ownership for existing large cross-functional projects, reporting to Finance leadership on key areas such as resource planning and finance track execution & management.

Description

As a Product Manager Technical, you will act as the technical and program bridge between finance business partners and IS&T. You will help define where and how financial postings should flow across SAP and non-SAP applications, ensuring the strategy is technically sound and scalable as Apple's systems landscape evolves. You will also manage the day-to-day execution of large, cross-functional finance transformation projects arising out of this partnership, including where some are already underway. You should be comfortable moving between big-picture strategy discussions and the detailed blocking-and-tackling of program execution, and you should bring the credibility to influence both finance and engineering stakeholders.
