The team oversees Expedia Group's data products, enterprise data domains, analytics platforms, AI/ML platforms, streaming and experimentation platforms, metrics platforms, and the governance and quality frameworks that underpin them. We partner closely with engineering teams across the business to deliver scalable, reliable, and AI-ready data infrastructure. We are looking for a Principal Product Manager who brings deep data platform expertise and can own significant product capabilities across this portfolio - driving strategy, adoption, and measurable outcomes wherever the team needs experienced leadership most.

In this role, you will:

• Own and drive the vision, strategy, and multi-year roadmap for one or more data platform capabilities
• Translate complex technical and business needs into clear, outcome-driven priorities with measurable impact
• Define and deliver scalable platform capabilities across the data lifecycle, including data ingestion, quality and observability, governance and access control, metadata and discoverability, metrics and semantic layers, and AI/ML-ready data infrastructure
• Build trusted data platform experiences for engineers, analysts, data scientists, and business stakeholders
• Reduce toil, improve data quality perception, and accelerate time to insight
• Embed AI-driven features to improve discoverability, automate quality checks, enable natural language data access, and support agentic analytics use cases
• Translate platform and business needs into a clear, outcome-driven roadmap and prioritize based on impact, feasibility, and measurable results
• Partner with engineering, data, analytics, and business teams to deliver scalable platform solutions across interconnected capabilities
• Define and track adoption and impact metrics such as usage, reliability, cost efficiency, time-to-insight, and user satisfaction
• Evaluate trade-offs and drive continuous improvement
• Champion platform quality, scalability, and governance while driving broad adoption
• Establish the data platform as a trusted, self-service foundation for the company

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience
• 10+ years of product management or related technology experience, including ownership of complex platform or data products
• Experience leading data-centric platforms such as data infrastructure, analytics enablement, data quality frameworks, metrics platforms, governance systems, and data catalog and discoverability tools
• Strong background in data analysis, analytics, or data engineering with a deep understanding of data ecosystems and workflows
• Proven track record of defining and executing product strategy and roadmaps for complex, cross-functional data platforms with measurable business impact
• Strong technical fluency in APIs, data modeling, and distributed systems, including experience with always-on data platforms and data flow architectures
• Demonstrated ability to collaborate closely with engineering and data teams to deliver sophisticated platform capabilities
• Experience defining and driving adoption and success metrics across platform products
• Proven ability to influence senior stakeholders and cross-functional teams on prioritization, governance, and trade-offs
• Ability to clearly articulate the business value of data platform investments

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience leading enterprise-scale data platforms with broad adoption across multiple domains or capability areas
• Track record in platform governance, data quality, and self-service enablement across diverse user populations
• Familiarity with data platform domains including metadata and catalog experiences, data quality and observability, metrics and semantic layers, experimentation frameworks, and data contracts
• Experience building or integrating AI/ML-powered platform capabilities such as semantic search, recommendations, natural language query interfaces, and agentic data access
