What You'll Be Doing & Why It Matters
Tableau has one of the most passionate data communities in the world.
As we move from traditional BI to agentic analytics, we need a product leader who can engage and energize the community around our product. This person will shape the Tableau product and market story with the community, tell that story on the biggest stages, and run executive and customer advisory programs that connect customer and field feedback to the roadmap and help drive additional sales.
Core Responsibilities & Scope
- Partner with the Tableau community, user groups, advocates, and the Sales, SE, Marketing, and Enablement field teams to shape product direction, launches, and roadmap programs, including joint events like Innovation Days, roadmap reviews, and hands-on workshops
- Develop and deliver the Tableau product narrative and vision, including AI and agentic analytics strategy, through keynotes, demos, and presentations at Tableau Conference, Devs on Stage, and customer, analyst, and executive events
- Run the Product Advisory Council / Customer Advisory Board (CCAB), including agenda, content, and recruiting, and turn strategic feedback into prioritized inputs for product leadership and strategic customer engagements
- Advise on product initiatives to keep roadmap direction aligned with market and community needs, and mentor product talent through programs like STORY (informal leadership, no direct reports)
Minimum Requirements
- 12+ years of senior-level experience in product management, product marketing, or technical evangelism in enterprise software, analytics, data, or AI
- Strong executive presence and keynote-level presentation skills on large stages, with credibility among customers, developers, and engineering
- Track record of running advisory boards, community programs, or large events
- Strong cross-functional influence without direct authority, sound judgment, independence on ambiguous initiatives, and an understanding of how AI is changing enterprise software
