Protege - Product Manager, Data Access & Delivery
Requirements
• PM experience in data platforms, marketplaces, APIs, or enterprise delivery systems • Experience building secure access workflows or permissioned systems • Strong product + execution instincts; comfortable with operational reality • Comfortable at the intersection of legal, engineering, and GTM • Ability to stage maturity over time rather than overdesign upfront • What Success Looks Like • Faster sample-to-deal conversion cycles • Reduced bespoke delivery engineering • Clear, repeatable delivery paths across deals • Fewer privacy/rights disputes at delivery time • Early, constrained self-service capabilities launched successfully • Strategic Impact • This role directly influences revenue velocity, customer trust, platform scalability, and Protege’s long-term self-service posture—because data delivery is where platform value becomes real.
Responsibilities
• Define delivery as a product capability • Own delivery surfaces: full contractual deliveries, samples/evaluation datasets, secure file transfer or controlled access environments, and API/structured delivery pathways as appropriate. • Establish what “delivery” means in-product (not just an operational handoff). • Enforce privacy & rights at Point of Access • Partner with the Privacy, Rights & Trust PM to embed eligibility checks and usage constraints into delivery workflows. • Ensure access mechanisms enforce policy (without owning policy definition). • Reduce delivery bespoke work • Identify repeated friction surfaced by Solutions Architecture and standardize packaging, formatting, and transformation patterns. • Shift delivery from manual, deal-by-deal construction to configuration-driven workflows. • Design the path to self-service • Define what can be self-serve, for which customers, under what guardrails, and with what controls/visibility. • Start with constrained, high-confidence surfaces (e.g., samples) and expand intentionally. • Represent delivery state in the platform • Define delivery status models and ensure internal visibility into what was delivered, to whom, under what constraints. • Enable auditability and reproducibility. • Cross-Functional Alignment • You’ll work closely with: • PM, Data Inventory & Partner Systems: ensure what’s discoverable is deliverable • PM, Privacy, Rights & Trust: enforce eligibility and compliance at access time • GTM & Partnerships: improve sampling and evaluation velocity • Engineering: owns ingestion execution and infrastructure
