Senior Product Manager, Data Links
Smartsheet is seeking a Senior Product Manager to own the Data Links product area, a strategically critical and high-growth component of Smartsheet's enterprise platform. Data Links encompasses the full suite of cross-sheet data referencing capabilities (dynamic dropdowns, column links, DataMesh, DataTable) that empower enterprise customers to build, maintain, and scale their solutions. These capabilities are central to Smartsheet's competitive positioning and a major multi-year initiative to evolve the platform's data model toward full relational data capabilities.
The ambitious roadmap includes dependent dropdowns, advanced column links, a migration path away from DataMesh, and the evolution towards a relational data model. This individual contributor role requires deep customer instincts, strong technical fluency, and the confidence to drive a complex, cross-surface product area with multiple engineering squads and broad stakeholder dependencies.
You Will:
- Own and lead the end-to-end product strategy and roadmap for Data Links (dynamic dropdowns, column links, DataMesh, DataTable), making clear prioritization decisions.
- Serve as the lead product owner across multiple engineering squads, navigating platform-level architectural decisions and cross-team dependencies.
- Drive sustained growth in dynamic dropdown and column link adoption by identifying and closing gaps in discoverability, setup, and creation experience across surfaces.
- Lead the execution of the advanced column links program, including features like duplicate handling, overwrite handling, image/hyperlink support, and report-as-a-source, to enable migration away from DataMesh.
- Own the operational stability and serviceability of DataMesh and DataTable while shaping and executing their long-term deprecation and migration strategy.
- Shape the multi-year Data Links vision, evolving dynamic dropdowns towards a relational data model with record links, source record details, and AI-assisted capabilities.
- Lead customer and user discovery with enterprise personas (work admins, solution builders, system administrators, power users) to validate assumptions and product decisions.
- Author crisp product briefs, requirements documents, and feature specifications for design and engineering.
- Drive cross-functional alignment across UX, GTM, Customer Success, and platform teams.
- Represent the Data Links product area in leadership reviews, WBRs, and customer-facing conversations.
- Define success metrics and partner with data teams for instrumentation and reporting.
- Contribute to pricing and packaging decisions for Data Links capabilities.
- Perform other duties as assigned.
You Have:
- 5+ years of product management experience, delivering high-impact features in enterprise SaaS or B2B software.
- Experience owning data management, data modeling, workflow automation, platform integrations, or cross-sheet data referencing product areas is a strong plus.
- Proven ability to navigate ambiguous, technically complex platform problem spaces and make clear scoping/sequencing decisions.
- Strong customer instincts with experience in structured discovery and synthesizing customer feedback into product decisions.
- A track record of authoring excellent product briefs, requirements documents, and feature specifications.
- Demonstrated ability to drive cross-functional alignment across engineering, design, GTM, and Customer Success.
- Comfort working with multiple engineering teams across time zones.
- A data-driven mindset with experience defining and tracking adoption, funnel, and quality metrics.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including representing the product confidently to leadership and customers.
- Experience with API-driven product development or working with platform/infrastructure teams is a plus.
- Exposure to AI/ML product development or shipping AI-assisted features is a plus.
- Legally eligible to work in India.
- Fluency in English.
