JPMorgan Chase & Co.•New York, NY

12d•$152,000 - $285,000•Onsite

About The Position

As a Product Director in the Personalization & Customer Insights (Intelligence) team, you will own the product vision and strategy for a portfolio of AI-powered intelligence products and lead the product managers who deliver them. You will set direction, develop your team, and stay close enough to the work to pressure-test model design, evaluation, and experiment tradeoffs. You will act as the voice of the customer, translate research and analytics into a clear multi-year plan, and drive execution across a highly matrixed organization, aligning Data Scientists, ML Engineers, partner teams, and business stakeholders around a shared roadmap. You are accountable for what the team ships, on time and at quality, not just for setting direction. You will own the products that give a clear, 1:1 understanding of each customer, built for customers and for the bankers who serve them. You will ensure that intelligence is tested and validated before it reaches customers, and drive the personalization strategy with the lines of business. You will partner closely with the platform and modeling teams that build and serve the models, but your portfolio is the intelligence itself and how the business puts it to work. This role sets the vision, builds the team that delivers it, and drives it to reality across the organization.

Requirements

8+ years of experience or equivalent expertise delivering products, projects, or technology applications
Extensive knowledge of the product development life cycle, technical design, and data analytics
Proven ability to influence the adoption of key product life cycle activities including discovery, ideation, strategic development, requirements definition, and value management
Experience driving change within organizations and managing stakeholders across multiple functions
Proven success delivering AI/ML-powered products to production in customer-facing environments, in close partnership with Data Science and ML Engineering across the model lifecycle.
Demonstrated success with ML-driven personalization and/or next-best-action, including experimentation and rigorous outcome measurement.
Strong data literacy, able to turn research and metrics into decisions and roadmaps that deliver on time, cost, and quality.
Hands-on data fluency: able to explore and query data yourself (SQL/Python, or AI-assisted tools such as GitHub Copilot or Claude) to frame problems, sanity-check models, and move quickly. This role does not lead from a distance; familiarity with these tools is expected.
Accountable for delivery, not just direction: a track record of owning a product through to production and prioritizing under real constraints, balancing new work against operational stability, reliability, controls/regulatory needs, and technical debt.
Comfort with ambiguity and breadth: a track record of stepping into unfamiliar problem spaces and, in a space that is still forming, helping define it.
Proven ability to set product vision and drive execution across a highly matrixed organization; excellent executive stakeholder management and clear, structured written and verbal communication.
