**What You'll Do**
**We're** **building a system that helps our leaders make better technology investment decisions-faster and with confidence.**
As a Product Manager on Portfolio & Application Intelligence, you'll work at the intersection of data, architecture, and business strategy to turn fragmented, often incomplete information into decision-ready insights.
This is more than a reporting product. It's a decision product-where success is measured by whether teams can confidently decide what to invest in, modernize, or retire.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys diving into complex, detail‑heavy problem spaces and turning them into clear, usable experiences-motivated by helping teams make better decisions, not just delivering features.
You'll work closely with architects, engineering, and data partners to bring structure to complexity and create products that are both deeply informed and easy to use.
