Key job responsibilities

As a Principal Product Manager, you will define the strategic vision and own the long-term roadmap for major suites of technology products with company-wide impact. Working with technical teams within and without SFSC, you will use your product domain expertise, customer obsession, and ownership of the end-to-end product development cycle (customer engagements, stakeholder buy-ins and requirements definition, CX design, compliance, feature definition and prioritization, product messaging, go-to-market strategies, and post-launch closed-loop feedback mechanisms) to lead products and teams through strategic and technical ambiguity to ultimate success.
