Product Manager, Benchmarking

Job Summary

The Product Manager, Benchmarking owns Zoomph's benchmarking solution, a large database of pre-processed data that gives customers instant access to comparative performance across hundreds to thousands of leagues, teams, and brands. The role combines hands-on product management with a social analytics background and a forward-leaning view of data access, shaping raw data into the right database structure and delivering it through MCP and APIs to customers and AI-driven applications. The benchmarking dataset is social-first today and will expand to broadcast and streaming, so the role works closely with data engineering on the ETL pipelines that ingest, normalize, and grow it. This is a strong fit for a product manager who wants to build a data product in a fast-paced sports and media analytics SaaS environment.

• Own and maintain the product backlog and roadmap for Zoomph's benchmarking solution, writing clear user stories, acceptance criteria, and specs.
• Drive features from concept through launch, partnering with engineering and design to deliver on schedule and to spec.
• Define and track success metrics for shipped features and report on outcomes.

Benchmarking Data & Access:

• Define the database structure and access layer for pre-processed benchmark data so customers get instant comparisons across leagues, teams, and brands.
• Partner with engineering to expose benchmark data through MCP and APIs so it is accessible to customers and AI-driven applications.
• Work with data engineering on the ETL pipelines that ingest, normalize, and grow the benchmarking dataset, starting social-first and expanding to broadcast and streaming.
• Define and monitor data quality, coverage, and freshness targets, and prioritize improvements with engineering and data.

Customer & Market Input:

• Gather and synthesize feedback from sales, customer success, leagues, teams, and brand partners to inform priorities.
• Analyze product usage and benchmarking trends to identify opportunities and gaps.

Cross-Functional Collaboration:

• Coordinate releases and keep internal teams informed on what is shipping and when.
• Enable sales and customer success on new benchmarking capabilities through clear documentation.

• Comfort working with ETL pipelines and growing, multi-source datasets.
• Experience writing requirements, user stories, and managing a product backlog.
