Job Description

At Checkout, we’re rethinking how we “do data”. To ensure our solutions are scalable and our data is reliable, we’re moving towards a streaming pipeline approach enabling Real Time analytics and reporting capabilities for data users across the business that rely on this to understand how our payments are performing, behaving and more.

We’re on the lookout for an experienced Technical Product Manager to join our Data Platform team; a pivotal position that will play a key role in developing and driving this strategy throughout the organisation and ensuring teams are reaping the benefits.

This role will be the interface between the Data Platform and business users in the company. As such you’ll be a crucial part of the puzzle right on the cutting edge of how data is handled at scale. We expect our technical product managers to have a deep ownership of the roadmap, product, and strategy for their teams.

Key Responsibilities:

  1. Platform and Data Strategy:Help design and implement the data platform strategy, then influence and work with teams and domains to implement data products that support business strategies, ensuring that data models, flows, and processes are optimised for performance, scale, and governance.
  2. Stakeholder Management:Collaborate with VP Level executives, product teams, and engineering teams to communicate complex data architecture concepts and drive alignment on data strategy.
  3. Consultancy and Change Management:Become a subject matter expert, providing guidance to teams, and reporting to stakeholders across the organisation on best practices in data management, data governance, and the design of modern data ecosystems.
  4. Transformational Leadership:Lead data transformation and migration initiatives, including cloud migrations, implementation of data products, and the adoption of new technologies and techniques.
  5. Governance and Data Quality:Ensure data governance policies and processes are in place, and promote data quality and security standards across the organisation.

As a fintech, Data Governance is core to what we do but we dream that it doesn’t have to be onerous. We’re building self-sustaining mechanisms to make doing the right things easy - and we need your help to get it right.

Qualifications

  1. Strong Consultancy Skills:Track record of working in a consultancy or advisory role, managing change initiatives, and leading business transformations in large organisations.
  2. Analytical and Data Modeling Expertise:You’ll need to be a trusted voice, so some experience in data modelling (conceptual, logical, physical) and analytics solutions would be beneficial.
  3. Data Governance and Quality:Some understanding of data governance principles, data quality frameworks, and the regulatory landscape affecting data (e.g., GDPR, CCPA).
  4. Collaborative and Influential:Great communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work cross-functionally and influence at all levels of the organisation.

Apply without meeting all requirements statement:If you don't meet all the requirements but think you might still be right for the role, please apply anyway. We're always keen to speak to people who connect with our mission and values.

We believe in equal opportunities:We work as one team. Wherever you come from. However you identify. And whichever payment method you use.
