Digital products play a central role in how we create value for customers, support the teams who serve them, and shape the consumer experience. Our product organization brings together small, empowered teams that move with clarity, speed, and purpose, enabling digital to be a meaningful source of advantage across our operating unit.

Our work touches on the experiences that keep the business running, including customer journeys, service delivery, sales workflows, and the systems that connect them. We are raising our standards for product craft and rebuilding the platforms behind these experiences.

About the Role

The Head of Product Data & Analytics leads the data discipline within the Product organization, overseeing the analysts and data scientists embedded in empowered product teams. This leader is responsible for how teams use data to understand behavior, measure progress, experiment confidently, and discover new opportunities.

You will build and scale a modern product insights capability that brings together analytics, data science, experimentation, instrumentation, and decision support. You will ensure teams move from opinion-driven to evidence-informed, while partnering closely with Design and Research to connect what users do with why they do it.

This role is deeply cross-functional. You will work alongside Product, Design, and Engineering leaders to define metrics, build measurement frameworks, instrument features, run experiments, and develop models that create both internal insight and customer-facing value.

• Represent the data and insights perspective in senior forums

Key Qualifications
