You will lead a team of talented designers, engineers, marketers, and analysts to help build the best product, enabling our customers to unlock insights, engage customers, and win faster.

This role will own data acquisition through ZoomInfo’s proprietary data flywheel. You will be solving complex data problems and growing a network of data contributions impacting the way the worlds’ best and most sophisticated companies go to market. You will impact the day to day actions and outcomes of hundreds of thousands of sales and marketing professionals who will love you for giving them an unfair advantage in finding new opportunities. 

What You’ll Do:

• Own Product Lifecycle: Champion products from early-stage ideation, through a successful launch, and into monitoring and iterative improvements.
• Set Vision and Roadmap: Paint a compelling vision and roadmap for the product, ensuring alignment with department and company objectives at every step.

• Lead Teams: Galvanize engineers, designers, and marketers to ship best-in-class experiences. You’re the focal point!
• Stakeholder Updates: Drive alignment across the organization by articulating product strategies with compelling narratives through regular, written updates to all stakeholders (including executives).

What You’ll Bring:

• Data is your passion. You’ve built complex data products before and have experience growing networks through value added feature functionality.
• You thrive when presented with ambiguity. You prefer tackling problems with no clear or obvious solution, and like to get your hands dirty becoming an expert in what you are trying to solve. You have 8+ years of product management experience, and are comfortable setting a product strategy, roadmap, and executing on it.
• You’re a strong written communicator. You have a proven track record of clearly and effectively conveying complex product concepts and strategies in writing to various audiences. This includes developing compelling product narratives, crafting detailed Product Requirement Documents, and communicating product roadmaps and release plans across the organization.
• You have a proven track record driving measurable business outcomes in data focused products. You are skilled at rallying teams around key performance indicators tied to company goals, and adept at connecting daily work to long-term business impact.
• You have strong product intuition guided by gut feeling, but back up those instincts with hard data. Your product sense is sharpened by your expertise in leveraging data analytics. You live and breathe in tools like Amplitude and Tableau, and can’t help rolling up your sleeves to write some SQL or Python to understand data better and answer your own questions.
• You are driven to make a major impact on Zoominfo's bottom line. You build great products to power significant new business opportunities and revenue streams.
• Your True North is delivering an insanely great experience for every customer. You'll drop everything to jump on Zoom with a customer to capture feedback live. You’re reviewing user sessions and Chorus.ai recording meetings for hours a week to understand how people use the product. Turning these insights into product improvements is what fuels you.

What Does Success Look Like:

• You will grow ZoomInfo’s proprietary data flywheel and drive the impact it has in product features and functionality, improving outcomes for our users.
• Through partnership with Marketing and GTM teams on positioning, messaging, and release notes, users will understand the value of contributing data and network participation.
• Engineering and Data Science teams will see you as a trusted partner and enabler to help solve complex problems, define requirements, and to build metrics to help monitor the efficacy and quality of our contributory network. 
• Customers, prospects, and the industry will know you as a trusted advisor and partner in understanding how B2B data can help them become more efficient and streamline their go to market operations.

How We Work:

• Be Relentless. We will be relentless: when we deliver value to clients; when we compete; when we run into difficult problems. We will outpace and outcompete our competition. We are smart, clever, and resourceful in everything we do. Competing with us for the same customers will be a daunting experience.
• Be Entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs hustle, move fast, take ownership, they have autonomy, and make decisions. They are accountable, but they do not operate in fear, they aren’t afraid to fail. They are resilient, resourceful, and solutions-oriented - even when conditions say otherwise. We will entrust, and expect, our leadership and our teams to operate as entrepreneurs.
• Be Experts. Winning for our customers requires that we understand them deeply. Winning for our business requires us to be experts in our domain areas. Great companies solve complex and costly problems for their customers - you can’t do this without being an expert in your customers’ day to day workflow. We will demand this level of customer and business expertise from everyone at the company.
• Be Innovators. Innovating is who we are, it is how we have gotten here. But not just with our product and how we define what GTM means for the future. We innovate to be leaner and more efficient in the way we operate, we will find ways to drive outcomes no one thought were possible - from marketing and lead generation to legal, finance, and procurement. Through innovation, we will set a new standard for how great companies operate with discipline.
• Be a Team. We can’t win if we act like a random assortment of siloed groups. We are one team, working together to win. We collaborate and lean in to help each other.
