About The Position

ADP is hiring a Lead Product Manager for ADP’s Data Platform

Are you empathetic to client needs and inspired by transformation
and impacting the lives of millions of people every day?
Have you taken products from concept to commercialization using the latest
technology and achieved market success?
Are you looking to join a dynamic, inclusive team environment with a culture
of collaboration and belonging?

Ready to design what's next?

In this role, you will work alongside a team of friendly, passionate, and
creative business leaders, product managers, and developers to help transform
the way ADP builds HCM products and runs business operations.

The ADP Data Platform combines all client HCM data, with ADP business data, and
industry knowledge into one place.  This data is
then further refined into additional capabilities like Canonical data elements,
semantic layer, Unstructured data ingestion, Knowledge Graphs, Events,
and Nudges.  Users of the platform (e.g., developers, data scientists, and
business analysts) can access this data and the platform capabilities to quickly
build and deploy tools like HCM applications, improve business operations, AI
models and workflows, and Analytics dashboards.

We're looking for someone who excels when no two days are the same. Integrity,
resilience, and pushing the boundaries are must-haves in this job.
Whether you're in meetings with end-users, developers, or design, you'll be the
guiding voice that helps us clarify ideas so we can create a product
roadmap that delivers customer outcomes and business results. You stay close to
market trends, anticipate our users’ next questions, and bring new ideas into
the mix. You love evangelizing your product with strong storytelling skills and
the ability to produce excellent docs, decks, and executive-ready
communication. Still, you also have the experience to take your product into the
marketplace and position it competitively for maximum financial impact.

To thrive in this role, you must take command
of the platform capabilities assigned to you, lead multiple team initiatives,
and be a deep listener who can ask the right clarifying questions to help
understand the problem your stakeholders are trying to solve. You've worked with
Agile teams and understand product delivery cycles. You have experience
explaining the prioritization of a product roadmap, creating that roadmap, and
documenting in a way that both external and internal teams will understand. You
have held roles where you regularly communicate and defend ideas to a broad
audience of stakeholders. Experience building or shipping AI
agents, assist experiences, workflows, or LLM-powered systems is a strong
plus. Our best product managers are domain experts and enthusiastic creators who
stay current on the latest trends, connect platform capabilities to business
value, and foster cross-BU alignment to drive meaningful adoption. As part of
our team, your voice will influence product success and help shape our
industry.

Requirements

• You'll have a Bachelor's degree OR equivalent.
• You have 5-7 years of experience in Product Management, with hands-on experience building, deploying and scaling digital products
• Possess an understanding of backend systems and technologies, with an interest in scaling and building platforms.
• You thrive in collaborating with cross-functional teams, influencing without authority and managing various stakeholders
• Ability to create executive-level communications and documentation, presenting complex ideas clearly and persuasively

Nice To Haves

• Background in engineering, tech and management consulting is a plus.
• Experience building or shipping AI agents, assist experiences, workflows, or LLM-powered systems is a strong plus.

Responsibilities

• Coordinate.  You'll start each day working with teams to understand responsibilities, identify any issues, and communicate priorities. You'll continue to have meetings throughout the day as you create and organize your roadmap.
• Research. You'll help to create the product roadmap and prioritize product features. You're always learning and researching new industry trends to make our products better. You'll incorporate what makes sense into your product roadmap based on our clients, the market, ADP's goals, and what impact the future of tech will have on your products.
• Collaborate. You'll create strong alliances with diverse stakeholders and ensure everyone is in this together and communicates most appropriately. You'll collaborate across multiple teams with developers, other product managers, and UX teams, to name some, to continually drive innovation and make the product the best it can be.
• Measure. You have experience measuring product effectiveness, reporting outcomes, and driving priorities.
• Navigate. There is no typical day and the answers are not always clear. You could be working with UX teams on client experience journeys to delivering new features, product enhancements, or creating new services. Best part? You'll get to see those ideas come to life.
• Communicate. You'll speak to internal and external stakeholders to communicate and defend ideas while answering critical questions.

Benefits

• Deliver at epic scale. We deliver real user outcomes using strong judgment and good instincts. We're obsessed with the art of achieving simplicity with a focus on client happiness and productivity.
• Be surrounded by curious learners. We align ourselves with other smart people in an environment where we grow and elevate one another to the next level. We encourage our associates to listen, stay agile, and learn from mistakes.
• Act like an owner & doer. Mission-driven and committed to leading change, you will be encouraged to take on any challenge and solve complex problems. No tasks are beneath or too great for us. We are hands-on and willing to master our craft.
• Give back to others. Always do the right thing for our clients and our community and humbly give back to the community where we live and work. Support our associates in times of need through ADP's Philanthropic Foundation.
• Join a company committed to equality and equity.  Our goal is to impact lasting change through our actions.
