Staff Product Manager, PDLC Planning and Execution, PDX

Join the Intuit Platform and Development Xcceleration (PDX) group as a Staff Product Manager. The Intuit PDX group builds foundational capabilities that developers across Intuit rely on to build and run flagship applications using cloud native technologies in a highly scalable, reliable, and secure manner. Ease of use, scale, and reliability are core attributes of the platforms owned by this organization. We are seeking a high-agency, results-oriented Staff Product Manager with a strong technical foundation and deep expertise spanning both the Product Development Lifecycle (PDLC) and Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC). The ideal candidate is a self-driven leader who operates with minimal oversight, demonstrates unwavering user empathy, and uses rigorous data-driven insight to shape a clear, independent point of view. You must be adept at establishing outcome-focused roadmaps while maintaining the agility to rapidly reprioritize based on shifting organizational demands. As a Staff Product Manager for PDLC Transformation, you will own the end-to-end alignment of Intuit's technical operating system—bridging the gap from top-level company goals down to day-to-day software delivery at the execution level. This high-impact role requires navigating tough cross-organizational stakeholder landscapes, defending clear boundary lines with leadership when necessary, and demonstrating best-in-class judgment when embedding AI tools directly into the product management craft to accelerate enterprise execution velocity.

Outcome-Focused Roadmapping & Execution: Formulate and drive a comprehensive,outcome-focused roadmap mapped directly to explicit success metrics. Seamlessly connect high-level company strategy down to execution-level tracking to ensure a single, canonical plan-of-record. Agile Reprioritization & Capacity Triage: Dynamically adapt and rapidly reprioritize product backlogs and platform capabilities based on real-time business demands, engineering constraints, and capacity gaps without losing momentum. Deep User Discovery & Empathy: Consistently demonstrate customer and developer empathy. Lead structured research, deep user interviews, and 'Follow-Me-Home' discovery sessions to uncover friction points and translate them into data-driven requirements. Stakeholder Alignment & Boundary Management: Manage complex, demanding stakeholder relationships across product and engineering lines. Effectively de-escalate friction, align contributors who feed into the platform, and bring an independent, objective point of view that challenges assumptions rather than defaulting to being a 'yes person' for leadership. Dual-Audience Communication & Influence: Command room presence and convey complex platform product strategies with equal clarity when presenting high-level vision to senior executives or technical implementation depth to developer communities. Autonomous Execution: Operate as a fully self-directed leader with high agency, managing large-scale cross-functional initiatives and product tracks with minimal management oversight. Advanced AI Product Tooling: Establish and scale best practices for safely incorporating generative AI tools into the product management lifecycle to synthesize user discovery, run automated scenario modeling, and accelerate documentation.

10 or more years of technical product management experience with a dedicated focus on developer platforms, shared enterprise services, work portfolio tooling, or complex enterprise PDLC/SDLC ecosystems. End-to-End PDLC/SDLC Expertise: Proven capability managing the full lifecycle of product development, showing explicit expertise in translating high-level enterprise business goals down to highly detailed execution structures (including software delivery tracking systems at the user story level). Data-Driven Discovery & Validation: A proven track record of using quantitative data (e.g., system velocity, throughput, usage friction metrics)
