Product Manager (Analytics)

This job is no longer open
Everything happens somewhere - which is why spatial analytics is fundamental to companies trying to understand the “where” and the “why” of their business. CARTO is the leading cloud-native location intelligence platform, trusted by data scientists, data analysts and developers from companies such as Vodafone, IKEA, Decathlon, Coca-Cola and Mastercard to provide geospatial insights for use cases such as site selection, geomarketing, route optimization, network planning and much more.

With an exceptionally diverse team of 150 people spread across the US and Europe, CARTO (backed by Accel Partners, Salesforce Ventures, Earlybird Ventures, and Kibo Ventures, among others) is changing the way companies analyze location data - making it simple to do this straight out of modern, cloud data warehouses. Redefining its category, the company has grown rapidly in recent years providing a compelling alternative to legacy GIS software.

We are looking for an enthusiastic, experienced and customer-focused Product Manager to join our Data and Analytics area, and work at the intersection of data science and GIS to help us build the most advanced spatial analytics platform. 

Our Product team advocates for our users and our business, setting the vision for our growing family of products. We use data, research, strategy, and empathy to guide multidisciplinary teams toward a common goal, balancing diverse perspectives and empowering our teams to do great work. 

This position is full remote, but it’s also possible to work from our office in Seville or Madrid.

You Will

    • Collaborate with the different stakeholders across the organization to define the product strategy for the advanced analytics components of our platform (e.g. Analytics Toolbox), and by translating the business goals and customer needs into product specifications and outcomes.

    • Manage and coordinate ongoing initiatives, collaborating with Engineering and Design teams to prototype, validate, coordinate, and iterate or ship new products.
    • Work closely with client-facing teams like Marketing, Support, and Sales to focus first on the customer/user-needs to understand the potential value and complexity of the problem before jumping into solutions and features.
    • Be intentional about what is being built and strict about prioritization. Drive action throughout the organization to bring steady value to the market.
    • Make evidence-based decisions and communicate them to the rest of the company. Be a proactive communicator that is customer and data-obsessed and can convey the meaningfulness of what we build to the broader team.
    • Work with the Product Marketing team to communicate the work that the Product teams do and prepare the Go-To-Market strategy.
    • Understand the geospatial and data science industries and the industries where CARTO is used most, defining a competitive position and working cross-functionally to build and launch different industry-specific analytical capabilities.
    • Measure and track the performance of ongoing initiatives, defining, implementing and tracking the right set of metrics.

    • Experience working with platforms such as Google Cloud BigQuery, Snowflake, AWS Redshift and/or Databricks.
