Data Product Manager
At Vanguard, we’re committed to helping our clients achieve long-term financial success through clarity, discipline, and a focus on what matters most. As a Date Product Manager, you’ll play a key role in making high-quality, trusted data accessible across the organization. Your work will enable better decisions, improve client outcomes, and support scalable, enterprise-wide data solutions.
You’ll collaborate with teammates across engineering, analytics, and business functions to build data products that are reliable, well-governed, and designed for real-world impact.
Core Responsibilities
Own strategic product leadership for a family of master and reference data products, with end‑to‑end accountability for vision, roadmap, and value delivery across the data lifecycle (ingestion, modeling, quality, orchestration, storage, and consumption).
Define and evolve the target‑state architecture and operating model for MDM and RDM, guiding maturity progression across domains while balancing governance, scalability, usability, and speed.
Lead cross‑functional alignment across data engineering, analytics engineering, platform, governance, and business teams to set and operationalize enterprise standards for data modeling, data quality frameworks, data contracts, and lifecycle ownership.
Translate complex and often ambiguous business needs into cohesive portfolio‑level roadmaps, sequencing initiatives based on risk and business impact.
Maintain strong technical credibility through hands‑on SQL and data analysis when needed, while primarily operating at a system‑level view across multiple interdependent data products.
Oversee resolution of complex, cross‑product production issues, driving root cause analysis and durable remediation for data quality defects, pipeline failures, and downstream analytics breakages.
Establish and continuously improve data product delivery practices including portfolio backlog management, dependency orchestration, CI/CD for data pipelines, observability, and data freshness monitoring.
Drive adoption, trust, and consistency of master and reference data across operational systems, analytics, and reporting by improving discoverability, reliability, and clarity of ownership.
Influence enterprise planning and investment decisions by representing data product risk, technical constraints, and long‑term sustainability in senior stakeholder forums.
At Vanguard, we don't just have a mission—we're on a mission.
To work for the long-term financial wellbeing of our clients. To lead through product and services that transform our clients' lives. To learn and develop our skills as individuals and as a team. From Malvern to Melbourne, our mission drives us forward and inspires us to be our best.
