About the Role
Klaviyo is searching for an experienced Senior Product Manager to spearhead the strategic direction and execution of our Data Exchange engineering teams' roadmap. Your primary objective will be to transform how our customers integrate their data into and out of the Klaviyo Data Platform. This involves creating seamless, efficient, and innovative data movement solutions that empower our customers to leverage their data to its full potential.
While our focus is on delivering exceptional products to our customers, we operate as a platform team. In this role, you will also play a key role in accelerating the development of our best-in-class data movement platform. This platform is utilized by our developers to orchestrate data within Klaviyo and build new features, so your work will have a broad impact across the organization.
The Klaviyo Data Platform underpins our B2C CRM, which is the foundation of our Marketing, Service, and Analytics products. You will directly contribute to the future of Klaviyo's data infrastructure.

- The ultimate measure of success for Product Managers at Klaviyo is driving business outcomes. That’s why we focus on tracking, analyzing, and improving metrics for each area of our product, with a particular focus on driving the results we target.
- We build products that exceed our customer’s expectations by truly understanding customer needs. That’s why Product Managers at Klaviyo spend a significant amount of time interacting with customers. At Klaviyo, knowledge about our customers is power.
- Product Managers at Klaviyo think deeply, quickly, and analytically. The rigor of thought is extreme here so we can ensure we’re making the best decision possible at all times.

- Ship features - you will get value into customer hands. For all of the work that goes into planning and coordination, we stay focused on delivering improved solutions and experiences every day.
