About The Position

Are you a strategic thinker who thrives at the intersection of technology and business? At Gallo, we're looking for a Technical Product Manager to take ownership of innovative technical product solutions within our beverage technology portfolio. In this role, you'll partner directly with product and engineering teams to shape and deliver roadmaps that create real, measurable value across the enterprise — all while championing an exceptional experience for both internal and external customers. You'll lead with purpose, overseeing day-to-day product management activities, driving story development, and guiding cross-functional teams through the full product lifecycle — from concept to commercialization. Whether you're synthesizing customer feedback, translating business needs into functional specifications, or aligning technical architecture with product strategy, your work will directly influence how Gallo leverages technology to stay ahead in a competitive market. You'll own technical product delivery across multiple teams and releases, proactively removing barriers, managing schedules, and ensuring every feature enhancement is thoughtfully implemented and monitored for impact. We're looking for someone who brings a broad product management skill set and a passion for innovation. You'll monitor emerging technologies, lead research and prototyping initiatives, and serve as a trusted technical liaison for customers and stakeholders alike. Your ability to align customer needs, market opportunities, and business objectives into clear, actionable product strategies will be key to your success. You'll also develop and mentor team members, fostering a culture of accountability, bold thinking, and continuous improvement that reflects our commitment to intrapreneurship and ownership. This is a hybrid role requiring a minimum of three onsite days per week, with occasional travel to satellite facilities based on business needs. If you're ready to lead with vision, build with intention, and make a lasting impact at one of the world's most iconic wine and spirits companies — we'd love to raise a glass with you. Come grow with Gallo.
