Senior Digital Product Manager
Brooks Sports Inc, Seattle, WA, United States
Senior Digital Product Manager, Foundation & Platform
As Brooks evolves its direct‑to‑consumer business, our digital platform must become faster, more reliable, and easier to build on. This role shifts foundation and platform work from reactive delivery to intentional product ownership — enabling teams to move faster, make better decisions, and deliver meaningful value to runners. As a Senior Digital Product Manager, Foundation & Platform, you will link runner needs, business strategy, and product and engineering efforts by treating Brooks’ digital foundation and platforms as products. Grounded in runner needs, business priorities, and technical realities, you will partner with business and technical leaders to create a streamlined, performant, and scalable platform that enables teams to build, deploy, and operate solutions efficiently. Responsibilities
Drive outcomes for Brooks’ digital foundation and platform capabilities, leading cross‑functional teams to deliver scalable, secure, and reliable solutions that reduce friction and increase delivery velocity. Partner with the Senior Manager, Digital Product Management to define and evolve a product roadmap for foundation and platform capabilities, prioritizing work based on measurable outcomes such as speed to market, reliability, cost efficiency, and adoption. Act as a primary product leader and advocate for Brooks’ digital foundation and platform capabilities, setting priorities and shaping outcomes by treating platform as a product with clear, measurable OKRs and KPIs that support runner‑ and customer‑facing experiences. Ensure Brooks’ platform is positioned to support emerging capabilities — including agent‑driven experiences, AI‑enabled services, and evolving search and discovery models — as these become integral to how runners find, engage with, and interact with Brooks. Lead discovery and problem definition for foundation and platform capabilities before committing to delivery. Make clear, data‑informed prioritization and trade‑off decisions across competing business and technical demands, balancing short‑term needs with long‑term platform health. Collaborate closely with engineering and platform teams to execute the roadmap and reduce time‑to‑market. Develop and maintain strong relationships and communication with business leaders and partners across the enterprise to advocate on their behalf. Apply modern product management practices to identify customer needs, assess technical capabilities, close product gaps, and accelerate delivery and adoption. Use data‑driven insights to evaluate platform performance and inform ongoing improvements. Contribute to and help optimize the Digital Product Management planning and prioritization process based on a holistic understanding of customer, business, and technology needs. Define and track success metrics for platform products, such as developer experience, deployment speed, reliability, cost efficiency, and adoption by product teams. Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in business, computer science, engineering, or a combination of education/experience in product management or related experience at a technology and data‑driven company. 7+ years in digital product development with at least 5+ years in a product management role. Experience delivering complex digital products in a direct‑to‑consumer, eCommerce, or platform‑heavy environment. Experience owning a product lifecycle end‑to‑end — from problem definition and outcome setting through delivery, measurement, and iteration. Demonstrated success in managing platform products and software foundations. Strong technical acumen with the ability to influence product design and investment decisions without owning architecture or implementation. Experience engaging senior leaders to define strategy and set priorities for global services. Demonstrated success in fostering global collaboration to meet diverse customer and business needs. Excellent problem‑solving, analytical, and communication skills. Track record of delivering results and building new processes and scaling platform technologies and organizations. Experience with highly complex B2B/C products or roles requiring data‑driven decision making and quantitative analysis skills. Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and effective communication abilities across functional teams, business partners, and external vendors. Experience influencing and prioritizing platform technical roadmaps and maintaining professionalism dealing with external vendors. Compensation
