The Group Product Manager will lead the strategic development and tactical execution of data platforms, including data engineering, search, and experimentation teams.

Summary
Wikipedia and its sister projects are among the most popular media properties in the world, visited by over 1 billion people a month across over 300 different languages. These sites generate a tremendous amount of data on how people learn and collaborate. The Wikimedia Foundation is looking for a group product manager to guide the development and evolution of our data platforms, the collection of technologies we use to understand how Wikipedia works, improve its experiences, and spread free knowledge.
The group product manager is a leader in the strategic decision-making and tactical execution for the Data Engineering, Experimentation, Search, and Data Platform Site Reliability teams. This role shares leadership responsibility with the Director of Engineering for Data Platform Engineering, and works in collaboration with data analysts, researchers, and product teams building user-facing features for reading and editing Wikipedia on the web and mobile apps. This is a people management role, managing two individually-contributing product managers.
In this role, you and your group of product managers will guide the evolution of our data pipelines, data lake, experiment platform, and analytics tools. This includes ingestion, orchestration, computation, and serving data using a variety of technologies such as Kafka, Flink, Hadoop, Spark, Airflow, Iceberg, Kubernetes, Superset, dbt, and OpenSearch. A strong candidate will have deep experience building a data platform to serve product analytics and production needs, and be technically conversant in the relevant technologies.
This position will report to the Senior Director of Product, Core Experiences.
Candidates must be available for critical meetings and synchronous work between 15:00 UTC and 18:00 UTC, and open to traveling internationally up to four times per year.
