What You'll Bring

Product strategy for Tableau support: Define and drive the roadmap for Tableau validation, testing, and observability capabilities within DataOps Suite — dashboard/workbook regression testing, calculated field and data source validation, extract vs. live connection checks, and visual/layout regression.
Deep Tableau domain expertise: Stay ahead of Tableau's product changes (Tableau Server, Tableau Cloud, Tableau Desktop, Prep, Pulse, extensions/dashboard extensions, embedding APIs, REST/Metadata APIs) and translate them into validation requirements.
Connector & integration roadmap: Work with engineering to prioritize and scope Tableau-specific connectors, authentication flows (SAML/AAD/SSO), and embedding scenarios (iframe, JS API), including diagnosing and preventing recurring production issues (e.g., extension conflicts, iframe blocking under SSO).
Competitive & market positioning: Track how competitors (e.g., ICEDQ, QuerySurge, or BI-specific testing tools) handle Tableau validation and identify differentiation opportunities.
Cross-functional collaboration: Partner with the ETL/Data PM (upstream data validation), Power BI PM (cross-BI-tool parity and differentiation), and Test Data Management PM (test data provisioning for Tableau test environments) to ensure Tableau capabilities are consistent with the broader DataOps Suite vision.
Customer & field engagement: Work directly with enterprise customers and the TAM/CS team to gather Tableau-specific pain points, validate use cases, and prioritize backlog items based on real deployment issues (performance, embedding, governance, migration).
Requirements & specs: Write detailed PRDs/specs for Tableau validation rule packs, dashboard comparison logic, and reporting/observability dashboards specific to Tableau environments.
Enablement: Support sales engineering, marketing, and customer success with Tableau-specific positioning, demos, and technical collateral.

What You'll Do

7–10 years of overall experience, with at least 3–4 years of hands-on Tableau expertise — Tableau Desktop, Server/Cloud administration, Tableau Prep, calculated fields, LOD expressions, extracts vs. live connections, and the extension/embedding ecosystem.
Practical experience with Tableau's REST API and/or Metadata API; familiarity with dashboard embedding challenges (SSO/SAML, iframe restrictions, extension conflicts) is a strong plus.
Prior product management experience (or strong product-adjacent experience as a BI architect/lead who has driven roadmap decisions) — ideally in a data quality, testing, BI, or analytics tooling company.
Working knowledge of the broader BI/analytics landscape (Power BI, Looker, Qlik) to reason about parity and differentiation.
Understanding of enterprise data pipelines — how Tableau sits downstream of ETL/ELT and data warehouses (Snowflake, Databricks, Redshift, etc.) — enough to collaborate meaningfully with the ETL/Data PM.
Strong ability to translate technical/architectural nuance into crisp requirements, rule specifications, and prioritized backlogs.
Excellent stakeholder management — comfortable working with engineering, customer success, sales, and enterprise customers directly.
Bonus: exposure to data governance/observability concepts (lineage, cataloging) and to enterprise identity/access setups (Azure AD/Entra, SAML) as they intersect with Tableau deployments
