- Consumer Goods Cloud and Trade Promotion Management
- Salesforce Scheduler and Feedback Management (Surveys)
- Education Cloud and Nonprofit CloudAs part of the Product Management team for your two target clouds, you will be responsible for establishing and driving a multi-release roadmap for successful adoption of this product, including per-release strategies on:

How we instrument the product to measure adoption, and the targets we set to define success

As a trusted advisor to these leaders, your strategies will be informed by a variety of firsthand and data-driven sources:

As a member of the product team, you will regularly meet with customers, partners, and internal teams to understand the barriers or points of friction they face in adopting the product.
As a hands-on expert with the Salesforce platform, you will experience firsthand the level of effort required to configure new features each release, and the extent to which documentation and other supporting assets make the process easier
As a part of Salesforce Industries, you will have access to our adoption data analysts and dashboards to help you identify and analyze usage trends by feature, geography, customer size, tenure, and more.
As a member of the Adoption team, you will be supported by the experience, strategies, and innovations of fellow adoption leads who cover over 20 additional industry-specific products and embedded components

Here is what we need you to bring:

You are outspoken and hardworking, and do not hesitate to speak your mind - even to those in more senior roles - to advocate for recommended strategies, mitigate risks, or even voice difficult truths in the interest of ensuring successful adoption of your product.
You are a hands-on expert with the Salesforce platform with recent experience as a Solution Architect or Technical Architect (or equivalent), likely a Trailhead Ranger, and looking forward to becoming a top expert on the product
You understand Product Management, the product development lifecycle, and have experience bringing new innovations to the market
