## Description

Job Title: Data Product Manager

Job Type: Contract

Location: Dubai (Hybrid)

Job Description:

Owns the product side of the data function — working with stakeholders to collect, challenge and shape requirements into a clear, prioritized set of problems worth solving. Translates business need into well-defined specifications the engineering, architecture and QA teams can build against, and is the accountable voice for 'why are we building this.

Key Responsibilities:

• Gather requirements from business stakeholders for new data products, reports, pipelines or platform capability

• Constructively challenge and stress-test requirements — is this the real need, is it the right solution, what's the value?

• Translate validated requirements into clear specifications, user stories and acceptance criteria

• Own and prioritize the product backlog/roadmap in collaboration with the Delivery & Prioritization Lead

• Work with architects on solution shaping and with QA on testable acceptance criteria

• Define and track value/success metrics for delivered data products

• Manage stakeholder expectations on scope, timeline and trade-offs

• Represent the business/user voice throughout the delivery lifecycle

Typical Task Breakdown:

• Ongoing: run discovery conversations/workshops with requesting stakeholders

• Ongoing: write and refine user stories and acceptance criteria ready for the delivery backlog

• Weekly: groom and reprioritize the product backlog with delivery and architecture leads

• Per initiative: produce a lightweight business case / problem statement before build starts

• Per release: validate delivered work against original requirements and sign off acceptance

• Monthly: review value/success metrics for recently delivered products and report back

• Ongoing: maintain a rolling roadmap view for stakeholder communication

Required Skills & Experience:

• Proven data or technical product management experience, ideally within analytics/data platform teams

• Strong requirements-elicitation and facilitation skills; confident challenging stakeholders diplomatically

• Ability to write clear user stories/specifications for a technical audience

• Working knowledge of data concepts (pipelines, models, reporting/BI) to hold credible technical conversations

• Commercial/value mindset — able to prioritize based on impact, not just requester seniority

• Comfortable operating without a large formal product toolset in a lean/rebuilding team

Experience Level:

• 4-6 years in product management, business analysis or a hybrid data product role.

Success Measures:

• Clear, well-specified backlog items ready for delivery with minimal rework

• Reduced scope churn/rework caused by poorly captured requirements

• Demonstrable value delivered against defined success metrics per product/initiative
