About the Role

This is a senior individual contributor role for a hands-on product owner. You will own a portfolio of platform data products centered on entity resolution, symbology and knowledge graph capabilities, and you will work close to the detail. You will shape the vision and roadmap, align senior stakeholders, and steer cross-functional squads of engineers, architects and analysts to deliver scalable, reusable products that create measurable value across the business.

Responsibilities

Own the vision, strategy and roadmap for Fitch's shared entity and reference data capabilities, including entity resolution, symbology and identifier mapping, corporate hierarchies and ownership, and the knowledge graph.
Define entity and relationship models, ontologies and metadata standards; profile and investigate data; shape matching and linkage logic; and write detailed requirements and acceptance criteria.
Build deep expertise in Fitch's data, products, underlying architecture and integration points to guide investment decisions and platform evolution.
Deliver entity resolution and matching services for business units and clients through APIs, bulk feeds or cloud data-sharing channels.
Expose entities and relationships to LLMs and AI agents through graph services, APIs and emerging protocols with necessary metadata and provenance.
Define and track data quality measures (accuracy, coverage, fill rates, timeliness) and product measures (adoption, reuse, client value, ROI) to set priorities and show impact.
Own the product backlog in Jira, balancing strategic initiatives, business demand, technical enablement, risk and scalability, and translating goals into epics, investment cases and delivery plans.
Run build-vs-buy and partner evaluations across data vendors, graph technologies and cloud platforms.
Lead entity and reference data governance, covering identifier lifecycle, data model change control, standards and stewardship across domains.
Drive adoption across business units by navigating competing priorities, resolving cross-portfolio dependencies and blockers, and escalating effectively when executive decisions are needed.
Sponsor validation, user acceptance testing and release readiness to ensure delivered capabilities meet business, control and quality expectations.
Produce and champion clear product documentation, including data dictionaries, model specifications, process flows and release communications.
Represent Platform Products in senior leadership discussions, communicating strategy, progress, risks and outcomes.
Strengthen the product operating model by introducing practices that improve discovery, prioritization, delivery and measurement.
