Company: NextEra Energy
Requisition ID: 97593
NextEra Energy Resources is one of America’s largest wholesale electricity generators, harnessing diverse energy sources to power progress. We deliver tailored energy solutions that fuel economic growth, strengthen communities, and help customers achieve their energy goals. Ready to make a lasting impact? Take the next step in your career with us!
Position Specific Description
NextEra is seeking a hands-on product leader to join the Transformation Office within the Business Management organization. Business Management owns the P&L for one of the largest renewable asset portfolios in the world and is responsible for ensuring these assets meet their financial commitments through:
- Acting as the CEO of the assets
- Maximizing revenue and optimizing operational performance
- Driving optimal commercial and regulatory outcomes
The Transformation Office is building a portfolio of decision-support products - optimization engines, scenario and lifecycle financial models, and the reporting and governance layer around them - that change how multi-billion-dollar operating and capital decisions are made across the fleet. The strategy and the analytical thinking are in place. What we need now is someone who can land them.
In this role you will be the product owner and delivery spine for that portfolio. You will sit between the business - Business Management, Power Generation (PGD), Operations and Finance - and the technical teams that build, including internal data science and engineering groups and external analytics and consulting partners. You will turn business intent into precise, testable requirements; drive the build through to production; and own the harder half of the job: adoption. Success in this role is not a model that works. Success is a planner, a business manager or an operating committee changing what they actually do because of it.
This is a role for someone who is genuinely bilingual. You will need to be credible enough with data scientists to challenge an objective function, a data assumption or a validation approach, and credible enough with operators and executives to explain in plain business language why the answer is right and what it is worth. You will also be the person who keeps the program honest: clear owners, dates, decisions, dependencies and risks, communicated on a reliable cadence, with early and specific escalation when something starts to drift.
You will operate with a high degree of autonomy in an environment with real ambiguity. You are expected to own the decision framing for your products - not simply take dictation - and to bring a point of view on what should be built, in what order, and why.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end product lifecycle for assigned decision-support products, from business problem definition through requirements, build, pilot, production release and value realization.
- Translate business objectives into technical requirements. Write the user stories, acceptance criteria, data requirements and definitions of done that data scientists and engineers build against, and own the product backlog and its prioritization by business value.
- Act as the conduit between the business and the technical teams. Run working sessions with Business Management, PGD, Operations and Finance to elicit real needs, constraints and edge cases, then represent those needs with fidelity to the build teams - and push back in both directions when what is being built will not solve the problem.
- Drive execution and accountability across multiple concurrent workstreams. Maintain the integrated plan, milestones, dependencies and risks; run the operating cadence of stand-ups, sprint reviews and steering updates; chase decisions, remove blockers, and escalate early and specifically.
- Keep stakeholders informed with concise, executive-ready status, decision logs and readouts, tailored to audiences ranging from field operations to senior leadership.
- Own adoption and change management. Design the decision process and workflow the product plugs into, build the training and playbooks, recruit pilot sites and early users, capture and act on feedback, and drive usage to the point where the legacy process can be retired.
- Define and track success metrics - adoption, decision quality and cycle time, and realized financial benefit - and maintain a transparent back-cast of forecast versus actual value delivered.
- Guard analytical integrity. Ensure what gets built preserves the business logic it was designed around, including the objective, constraints, cost treatment and risk adjustment, and that data quality, controls, cybersecurity, compliance and governance requirements are met.
- Manage external analytics and consulting partners on scope, deliverables, quality and timeline, protecting internal ownership and ensuring knowledge transfer back to NextEra.
- Coordinate across the Transformation Office portfolio, surfacing overlaps, shared data foundations and sequencing trade-offs so that the individual initiatives add up to one coherent operating model rather than a collection of tools.
Highly Preferred Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Data or Information Science, Finance, Economics, Business or a related field; an advanced degree is a plus.
- 6+ years of experience in technical or data product management, product ownership, analytics delivery leadership, technical program management, or a comparable role translating business needs into analytics and software builds.
- Demonstrated ownership of at least one analytics, optimization, forecasting or decision-support product taken from concept through production and into real business adoption, with a specific, quantified outcome you can describe in detail.
- Technical fluency sufficient to be a true counterpart to data scientists and engineers: comfortable discussing objective functions and constraints, model assumptions and validation, data pipelines and data quality, and the trade-offs among accuracy, speed and usability. SQL or Python literacy and hands-on experience with a modern data platform such as Databricks or Snowflake are a strong plus. You are not expected to build the models.
- Excellent requirements craft - user stories, acceptance criteria, process and decision mapping - with the discipline to make ambiguity concrete and testable.
- Proven execution and accountability muscle: running multi-workstream plans, driving owners and dates, managing dependencies and risk, and escalating well. Experience with Agile ways of working and tools such as Jira or Azure DevOps.
- Strong business judgment, including enough financial literacy to understand the economics of the decision being supported - revenue at risk, cost, capital and risk-return trade-offs - and to prioritize by value rather than by whoever asked loudest.
- Exceptional communication and stakeholder influence skills across very different audiences, from field operations through senior executives, including clear and concise executive written and verbal communication.
- A track record of driving adoption and behavior change, not only delivery: pilots, training, playbooks and retiring the legacy way of working.
- Experience in an asset-intensive industry - energy, utilities, renewables, aviation, rail, marine, mining, heavy manufacturing or logistics - is a plus.
- Familiarity with maintenance planning, scheduling or dispatch optimization, asset performance management, or total cost of ownership concepts is a plus.
- Experience working within or alongside a consulting or analytics partner delivery model is a plus.
- Experience with financial modeling, scenario analysis or capital allocation frameworks is a plus.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Product Strategy Lead Jobs
Target companies with active H-1B filing histories
Employers who have filed H-1B petitions for similar roles before are far more likely to sponsor again. Focus your search on mid-size to large tech and consulting companies with established immigration processes and dedicated HR support.
Frame your degree as a specialty occupation requirement
USCIS requires the role to normally demand a specific bachelor's degree. A degree in business strategy, engineering, economics, or computer science directly supports the specialty occupation argument for Product Strategy Lead positions.
Bring up sponsorship after demonstrating value
Raise visa sponsorship after a recruiter screens you, not in your cover letter. Employers who are on the fence about sponsoring are more likely to commit once they see you're a strong candidate worth the investment and process.
Clarify what 'sponsorship' means for your situation
If you're on OPT or STEM OPT, your employer files an H-1B petition on your behalf. If you need a transfer from an existing H-1B, the process is different. Knowing which you need helps you ask the right question clearly.
Prepare documentation connecting your degree to the role
USCIS scrutinizes whether the degree requirement is genuine. A detailed offer letter specifying the educational background required for strategic product work, along with your transcripts, strengthens the specialty occupation case significantly.
Browse Migrate Mate for sponsorship-confirmed listings
Migrate Mate filters for employers actively willing to sponsor visas, saving you from applying to roles that won't progress past the offer stage. For Product Strategy Lead roles, the platform surfaces listings that already confirm sponsorship intent.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Product Strategy Lead role qualify as an H-1B specialty occupation?
Yes, in most cases. USCIS requires that the position normally demands at least a bachelor's degree in a specific field. Product Strategy Lead roles at established companies typically require degrees in business, engineering, economics, or a related discipline, which satisfies the specialty occupation standard. Roles where any degree is accepted regardless of field face a harder argument.
Which visa types do Product Strategy Lead candidates most commonly use?
H-1B visa is the most common path. If you have an existing H-1B with another employer, a transfer is straightforward and doesn't require a new cap lottery slot. O-1A is an option if you have documented industry recognition, publications, or a track record of leading high-impact strategy work. E-3 visa applies if you're an Australian citizen. TN visa applies to Canadian and Mexican nationals in qualifying business categories.
What degree does USCIS expect for a Product Strategy Lead petition?
There's no single required major, but the degree must be in a field directly related to the job's core duties. Business administration, strategy, economics, computer science, and industrial engineering are commonly accepted. A mismatch, such as a degree in an unrelated field, can lead to an RFE. Three years of directly relevant work experience can substitute for one year of formal education if your degree doesn't fully align.
How do I find Product Strategy Lead roles where employers will actually sponsor?
Migrate Mate is the most direct way to find Product Strategy Lead listings from employers who have confirmed they're willing to sponsor. Many general job boards include roles that list 'no sponsorship available,' which wastes application time. Filtering specifically for sponsorship-willing employers before applying is the most efficient approach at this job level.
Can a startup sponsor an H-1B for a Product Strategy Lead?
Yes, but smaller companies face higher USCIS scrutiny because they must demonstrate they have the financial ability to pay the prevailing wage and that the role is a genuine specialty occupation. Startups without prior H-1B filing history should work with an immigration attorney to prepare a strong petition. Series B and later-stage startups with institutional backing generally have a much smoother process than early-stage companies.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored Product Strategy Lead jobs?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
