Senior Technical Product Manager

About the role

At Going, data is our core product driver and a product in its own right. Data-as-a-Service (DaaS) is the team that runs it like an internal platform business: your product is the unified stream of flight data; your customers are our internal product and feature teams, and your ultimate end-users are millions of subscribers who rely on us for timely, hyper-relevant flight deals.

We're hiring a systems-thinking Senior Technical Product Manager to lead a cross-functional team of senior Data and Backend Engineers. You'll own the charter and roadmap for how Going acquires, pipelines, and engineers high-quality datasets that power Going's core products. This requires building the resilience and diversification that reduces our dependence on any single data source, and turning that data into a product every downstream team can build on without re-solving it themselves. You’ll report to the VP of Product.

In the short term, you will

• Take ownership of the product data acquisition strategy and data processing roadmap; supporting the parallel build of a new system to replace the current

• Establish baseline measurement across our data funnel — coverage, pipeline health, and data quality — so future architecture and business decisions are based on value and cost

• Drive architecture that enables efficiency — a single-record architecture that's durable and observable

• Make data usable, not just available — You'll push toward a dynamic system that learns and adapts based on market trends and real consumer demand

• Serve internal customers so downstream teams have one trusted source to build against

In the long term, you will

• Build Going's long-term data acquisition strategy — diversified, cost-efficient, and resilient to any single vendor's disruption

• Turn our data caching and curation layer into a plug-and-play foundation that can onboard any future data source

• Make the data platform the compounding advantage behind Going's product — the thing every team builds on, not a shared dependency people work around
