Job Description
Team
Join the FinOps Platform Engineering organization within Global Cloud Services (GCS), the team that builds ServiceNow’s internal FinOps Control Tower for cloud cost governance, financial accountability, and unit economics across our multi-cloud estate (AWS, Azure, and GCP). Our organization is structured around three core teams: a Data Engineering and Data Lake team that builds the ELT pipelines landing data into our Iceberg lakehouse and owns data governance; a Platform Services team that operates our open-source platform stack (Trino, Lightdash, Coder, Jupyter, Redash, Hive Metastore/Nessie); and an Analytics Engineering team that builds the dbt data models and supports analysts creating dashboards and data apps.
This role supports the first two of those teams. You will be the product voice for the data engineering and platform services workstreams, working as a collaborative peer alongside the engineering leaders who own execution.
Role
As Senior Staff Technical Product Owner for FinOps Data Platform & Engineering, you own the product direction for both the data lake and ELT pipeline capabilities and the platform services that data engineers and analysts build on every day. You are the connective tissue between what the organization needs from its data foundation and what the engineering teams build.
This is a hands-on technical product role embedded in engineering. You will own the backlogs for two teams, translate requirements from internal users and FinOps stakeholders into concrete specifications, sequence the roadmap, and drive adoption. You will not manage people directly. You lead through influence, deep technical judgment, and close partnership with the engineering managers and senior engineers who own delivery.
Your stakeholders span both directions. Inward, you serve the data engineers, platform engineers, and analytics engineers who use the pipelines and platforms daily. Outward, you serve the FinOps practitioners, finance leaders, and capacity planners who depend on data landing reliably and platforms being available when they need them.
A defining part of the mandate is developer experience. The people building on this platform (data engineers using Coder workspaces, writing dbt models, running notebooks, querying Trino) are your users too. You will advocate for improvements to their workflows and partner with the platform services manager to make those improvements real.
You will also translate data governance requirements from compliance, security, and enterprise governance teams into actionable engineering work. You will not define governance policy, but you will ensure the platform and pipelines implement it correctly and completely.
The broader organization is migrating off Cloudera onto the modern lakehouse. You will partner closely with the Data Engineering team on this effort, jointly owning the sequencing of workload migration, defining readiness criteria for each wave, and coordinating stakeholder communication. The Principal Engineer leads the overall migration architecture, but you and the Data Engineering lead will drive the day-to-day prioritization and execution planning together.
What you get to do in this role:
Product Vision & Roadmap
Own the product vision and roadmap for FinOps data engineering (ELT pipelines, data lake, source onboarding) and platform services (Trino, Coder, Lightdash, Jupyter, Redash, Nessie).
Define what “production-ready” means for data pipelines and platform services. Establish SLAs for data freshness, pipeline reliability, and platform availability, and use them to steer prioritization.
Sequence the roadmap across both teams so that platform capabilities land ahead of the pipeline and analytics work that depends on them.
Gate roadmap phases on clear readiness criteria rather than arbitrary timelines. Ensure each phase builds on a proven foundation.
Data Engineering & Pipeline Product
Own requirements and prioritization for ELT pipeline development. Define which sources to onboard, in what order, and what the acceptance criteria are for each.
Specify the data contracts, quality expectations, and freshness SLAs for each pipeline, translating business needs into work the data engineering team can build and validate against.
Drive source onboarding to be fast and repeatable. Work with data engineers to templatize and automate the path from raw source to governed lakehouse table.
Translate data governance requirements (data classification, access control policies, lineage, retention) into concrete engineering specifications and acceptance criteria.
Ensure pipeline reliability is measurable and improving. Define the metrics, track them, and use them to prioritize investment in reliability over new features when needed.
Platform Services Product
Own requirements and prioritization for platform services alongside the platform services manager. Bring the user and stakeholder perspective; partner on feasibility and sequencing.
Define adoption and satisfaction targets for platform services. Understand how internal users experience Trino, Coder, Lightdash, and Jupyter, and drive improvements that reduce friction and increase self-service capability.
Advocate for developer experience improvements across the data engineering workflow. Identify pain points in how data engineers use workspaces, CI/CD, notebooks, and query tools, and work with the platform team to resolve them.
Drive platform service onboarding for new users and use cases, ensuring documentation, access provisioning, and initial support are smooth.
Stakeholder Management & Adoption
Serve as the primary intake point for requirements from FinOps practitioners, finance, capacity planning, and engineering teams that need data landed or platform capabilities extended.
Turn ambiguous asks into sequenced, shippable work with clear acceptance criteria. Push back on scope that doesn’t serve the roadmap, and negotiate timelines with stakeholders when needed.
Define the measurement model for success (pipeline SLA attainment, platform uptime, adoption breadth, source onboarding velocity, developer satisfaction) and report against it.
Communicate roadmap status, trade-offs, and dependencies to stakeholders in terms they can act on.
Migration & Cross-Team Alignment
Partner with the Data Engineering team on Cloudera-to-lakehouse migration planning, jointly owning wave sequencing, readiness criteria, and stakeholder communication for pipeline and platform workloads.
Coordinate with the Principal Engineer on overall migration architecture while driving the day-to-day prioritization and execution planning alongside Data Engineering leadership.
Align with the Analytics Engineering TPO (your peer) to ensure the data models and dashboards team has what it needs from the lake and platform layers.
Governance Translation
Translate enterprise data governance policies (from compliance, security, and data governance teams) into actionable specifications for the engineering teams.
Ensure data classification, access control, lineage tracking, and audit requirements are implemented in both the pipelines and the platform services.
Track governance compliance across the data estate and flag gaps that need engineering investment.
Innovation & AI
Apply AI/ML tooling where it accelerates pipeline development, platform operations, source onboarding, or data quality monitoring.
Identify opportunities to make data discovery and platform usage more self-service through automation and intelligent tooling.
What success looks like
Data pipelines meet their freshness and reliability SLAs consistently. Source onboarding is fast, repeatable, and well-documented.
Platform services are broadly adopted with measurable user satisfaction. Internal engineers are productive on Trino, Coder, and Jupyter with minimal friction.
The Cloudera-to-lakehouse migration workstreams under your purview are sequenced and progressing on schedule, with stakeholders informed and no surprises at cutover.
Data governance requirements are translated into implemented controls. The engineering teams know what to build and can validate compliance.
Developer experience is improving quarter over quarter. The path from “I need to build a pipeline” to “it’s running in production” gets shorter and smoother.
Stakeholders trust the roadmap, understand the trade-offs, and feel heard even when their request is deprioritized.
Qualifications
To be successful in this role you have:
Experience leveraging or critically thinking about how to integrate AI into work processes, decision-making, or problem-solving.
12+ years in technical product ownership, technical program management, or product management of data platforms, data engineering, or infrastructure, with a track record of shipping data products that internal engineering teams actually adopt.

Tips for Your Remote Product Engineering Manager Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote product engineering manager openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your background and apply directly without sorting through mixed local and remote results.
Show async leadership in your application materials
Remote employers look for evidence you can drive alignment without a whiteboard. Reference specific artifacts you've owned: technical roadmaps, written decision docs, or async retrospectives that moved a distributed team forward without a meeting.
Target remote-first companies in your outreach
Remote-first firms hire product engineering managers into roles designed for distributed work, not retrofitted from an office model. Look for companies whose engineering blogs, job postings, and public handbooks treat remote as the default, not an accommodation.
Prepare for a written interview component
Many remote hiring processes include a written exercise, a take-home case, or a documented design review before any video call. Practice explaining a past product-engineering tradeoff in writing, with enough context that someone outside your last company can follow your reasoning.
Remote Product Engineering Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote product engineering manager job?
Target remote-first companies and distributed engineering teams, where this role is built into the org structure rather than treated as an exception. Remote employers screen heavily for async communication skills, the ability to drive cross-functional alignment without in-person meetings, and self-directed delivery. A portfolio of shipped features, documented engineering processes, or public writing on product-engineering tradeoffs gives you a concrete edge over candidates who list the same skills without proof.
Which companies hire remote product engineering managers?
Employers currently hiring remote product engineering managers include Zeta Global, Analog Devices, and Mews, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Remote-first software companies and distributed SaaS teams make up the largest share of these openings, alongside fintech and enterprise technology firms that run fully distributed engineering organizations.
Can you get a remote product engineering manager job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level roles in this function are harder to land because employers expect early independence with minimal oversight. Your best paths are contributing to open-source projects with visible ownership, building and shipping a small product end-to-end, or stepping into a hybrid IC-and-lead role at a startup where the scope is real but the team is small. Demonstrating written clarity and async accountability matters more than a job title.
Do you need a degree for remote product engineering manager jobs?
Not always. Remote employers in software and SaaS weigh demonstrated product-engineering judgment, a history of shipped work, and the ability to lead distributed teams over formal credentials. A degree helps at larger companies with structured hiring, but many remote-first firms evaluate candidates on their portfolio, contributions, and how clearly they communicate technical and product decisions in writing.
Which industries hire the most remote product engineering managers?
The sectors hiring the most remote product engineering managers are Technology & Software, Electronics & Hardware, and Insurance, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. These industries rely on distributed engineering teams that need managers who can coordinate product and technical work asynchronously across time zones.
