Job Level
About the role
- Own the product roadmap for Campminder's data and intelligence capabilities — including AI-powered reporting, natural language list generation, and benchmarking features — and drive those initiatives from discovery through delivery
- Evaluate build, buy, and integrate decisions for data tooling and infrastructure — assessing the vendor landscape, making recommendations, and ensuring the choices we make today don't constrain what we want to build tomorrow
- Define success metrics for data products and hold yourself accountable to them — tracking adoption, measuring impact, and using what you learn to sharpen the roadmap
- Partner closely with data engineering to shape the architecture of Campminder's data layer — the infrastructure that will unify enrollment, operational, and behavioral data across our products — so it's built in a way that serves both the product and the platform long-term
- Conduct ongoing discovery with camp directors, camp staff, and internal engineering teams to understand how they access and act on data today, where the friction is, and what great looks like — then translate those insights into clear, well-scoped decisions
- Serve as the connective tissue between the data team and the broader platform organization, ensuring data capabilities are built in ways that benefit all of Campminder's products and surfaces
- Stay current on the data platform and developer experience landscape — tooling, standards, emerging AI capabilities — and bring that perspective to bear on Campminder's strategy
- Champion data as a product discipline inside Campminder, helping the broader team understand what's possible and building the internal relationships that make cross-functional data work actually work
- Use AI prototyping tools — Lovable, Bolt, Claude Code, or similar — to rapidly build working prototypes with customers, compressing the feedback loop between idea and validated product direction
Requirements
- Meaningful experience shipping data or analytics products — you've owned a roadmap that involved moving data from a backend system into something users can meaningfully interact with, and you understand what makes that hard
- Genuine fluency in modern data platform concepts — pipelines, data lakes, delta lakes, lakehouses, data schemas, and event-driven architectures — not as a builder, but as someone who can hold their own in architectural conversations, evaluate tradeoffs, and help guide the construction of a data infrastructure layer that will power multiple products over time
- Strong enough technical grounding that engineers trust your input — you don't need to write the code, but you know enough to ask the right questions and push back when something doesn't add up
- Experience evaluating and making build/buy/integrate decisions — you've assessed vendor options, weighed them against internal capabilities, and made a call you could defend
- The judgment to distinguish features that leverage Campminder's unique data — and the conviction to prioritize accordingly
- A systems-thinking orientation — you naturally connect dots across platforms, workflows, and business needs, and you can see how a decision in one place creates or closes off options somewhere else
- A track record of staying close to users — you've done enough discovery to catch yourself when you're building for the obvious request instead of the real problem
- Clear, direct communication across levels of technical expertise — you can explain a data architecture tradeoff to a camp director who just wants to know which kids are on the bus, and you can explain a camp director's mental model to an engineering team building the infrastructure underneath it
- You use AI prototyping tools as a core part of how you work — reaching for Lovable, Bolt, Claude Code, or similar to compress the loop between idea and validated direction, not as a bonus step in discovery
- Comfort operating with incomplete information and a fast-moving strategy — you can set direction without waiting for perfect clarity, you adjust as you learn, and you bring your team along with you rather than leaving them behind
Benefits
- Robust medical, dental, and vision coverage options with generous employer contributions, plus a $500 employer HSA contribution for HSA-compatible plans
- Ability to choose where you work - remotely, in the office, or a mix!
- A variety of resources to support mental health and emotional well-being
- 12 weeks of 100% paid parental leave for all new parents, including via adoption, surrogacy, and foster care
- 401(k) with 4% company matching
- Trust-Based (flexible) PTO (and yes, we use it!)
- $900/year wellness allowance
- Company-paid subscriptions, training, and support for using AI professionally and personally. We have a team dedicated to enabling our AI capabilities for our team members and our customers!
