Description
Trupanion is seeking a Senior Technical Product Manager, Enterprise Digital Integrations to lead the strategy, roadmap, delivery, and continual optimization of critical enterprise integrations and backend platform capabilities.
This position is open to candidates in the Seattle area. You will have a hybrid remote/in-office schedule where you will work from our casual, pet-friendly office at least 3 days a week.
This role sits at the intersection of product management, software engineering, enterprise architecture, and business operations, serving as the product owner for technologies that enable data exchange and business processes across Trupanion's digital and enterprise ecosystem. Initially, this position will focus on backend systems supporting Trupanion's website experiences and partner/affiliate integrations, with the scope expanding to include enterprise-wide technology integrations across all business verticals.
As Trupanion continues to evolve its enterprise technology landscape, this role will be responsible for helping define and manage integration strategies across critical business verticals, including:
