At CI&T, our rapid growth is fueled by the innovative solutions we create for our global clients. We are seeking a Data Product Manager to own the reporting backlog for a large-scale Finance data platform modernization at a major US mortgage lender — turning a large, legacy report inventory into a rationalized, business-defined set of deliverables built on a new curated data platform. You'll be the bridge between the client's Finance stakeholders and the development squad.
This position balances stakeholder facilitation with backlog ownership: the professional decides what carries forward, what gets rebuilt, and what gets retired from a large legacy report inventory, then keeps the delivery backlog moving against fixed program gates by resolving requirements ambiguity directly with named business owners.
Responsibilities
Own and rationalize the report and capability inventory — deciding which legacy reports carry forward as-is, get re-pointed at the new platform, get rebuilt, or are retired.
Groom and prioritize the delivery backlog across replication, curated-layer, semantic-model, and reporting-enablement workstreams.
Define and validate acceptance criteria for each deliverable together with client Finance and business stakeholders.
Facilitate the design-validation phase: gather report and table baseline requirements, resolve ambiguity with named Finance/business owners, and lock scope.
Drive backlog and requirement decisions to clear deadlines so the delivery schedule never idles on an open question.
Coordinate cross-functionally with the Architect, the Security & Privacy Governance Lead, and data development leads to keep scope, design, and delivery in sync.
Track and communicate progress against delivery gates (design validation, build, cutover readiness) to client stakeholders.
Requirements for this challenge
Solid Expes as a product manager, product owner, or business analyst on data/BI/reporting programs, owning a backlog end to end.
Experience rationalizing a large legacy report inventory into a governed, business-defined reporting product.
Comfortable working directly with Finance or other business-domain stakeholders to define acceptance criteria and resolve requirements ambiguity.
Strong facilitation and stakeholder-management skills; able to drive decisions to a deadline inside a fixed-scope delivery.
Working understanding of data platform concepts (source-to-curated data flow, semantic layers, BI tooling) sufficient to translate business need into a development backlog.
Fluent English (C1) — daily collaboration with US-based Finance and business stakeholders.
Nice to Have
Experience with financial/GL reporting domains (chart of accounts, dimensions, close process).
Experience in mortgage, lending, or financial-services reporting.
Familiarity with Power BI or another enterprise BI semantic layer from a product/requirements perspective. #LI-JP3
