Sr. Data Product Manager - Telemetry & Streaming

San Diego, CA

At Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) , data is core to how we build, operate, and evolve extraordinary player and creator experiences. As we scale our Data & AI capabilities, we're looking for a Senior Data Product Manager to lead our Telemetry & Streaming efforts – the foundation of how SIE collects, processes, and activates data in real time across our ecosystem.

This is a high-impact role passionate about delivering robust, scalable data flows that support everything from Business and Operational Intelligence, Personalization, Targeting and Platform Safety to name a few things. You'll work at the heart of SIE’s data ecosystem, partnering across engineering, product, and business teams to craft how data is collected, moved, and made useful.

What You’ll Do

Define the Strategy – Take ownership of the product direction and plan for SIE’s telemetry and streaming data infrastructure. Ensure we have reliable, real-time data pipelines that meet the evolving needs of our products, games, and services.

Lead Execution – Translate vision into actionable plans and work with engineering to deliver resilient, scalable data systems. Prioritize features that improve reliability, observability, and time-to-data.

Champion Standards – Drive adoption of common data instrumentation and collection patterns across SIE to ensure consistent, high-quality telemetry data.

Enable Real-Time Value – Make it easier for internal teams to tap into real-time data streams for analytics, experimentation, and AI-powered experiences.

Partner Widely – Collaborate with product, engineering, analytics, and platform teams to deeply understand data needs and ensure telemetry infrastructure supports both operational scale and strategic insight.

Challenge Assumptions – Bring a critical lens to how we do things today. Look for opportunities to improve performance, reduce latency, increase data trust, and simplify complexity.

What We’re Looking For

• Product leadership in data – Proven experience running platform or infrastructure products, especially in data streaming, telemetry, or observability domains.


• Technical proficiency – You’re comfortable working with engineers on topics like event-driven architectures, Kafka, Spark, real-time pipelines, or edge data collection. You don’t need to code, but you should speak the language.


• Strategic approach – You can see around corners, understand where the business is headed, and align technical roadmaps accordingly.


• Strong execution – You have a track record of shipping infrastructure products in sophisticated environments, with transparency, prioritisation, and a bias for action.


• Phenomenal communicator – Able to distil complexity for diverse audiences and build alignment across functions and levels.


• User of the platform approach – You think about internal teams as your customers and are passionate about building for reliability, usability, and adoption.

Why This Role?

• You’ll craft a critical part of SIE’s data ecosystem, one that touches every product, team, and player experience.


• You’ll work with a versatile, collaborative group across product, engineering, and business.


• You’ll help build the future of data at SIE – grounded in speed, quality, and trust.
