We have an exciting opportunity for a Product Manager to be part of our exciting Observability and Incident Management Team, which impacts every part of our core technology and the highly experienced technology and product teams who use them. You will play a pivotal role in our journey to influence both the technical and cultural strategy across our channels. Supporting teams to gain the insight they need to make data driven decisions that directly impact our brand, our bottom line and overall colleagues and customer experience.
You will be responsible for shaping the culture and driving the roadmap for how colleagues will interact with observability data in future, utilising AI to reduce the toil and cost of maintaining system reliability, and contributing to reducing the impact of technology incidents. As a Product Manager you will also ensure AI is utilised to improve observability outcomes and for shaping the agentic approach that underpins it — driving faster detection, diagnosis and resolution of technology incidents.
Ultimately, we are solving problems to ensure groceries are delivered to stores, colleagues can do their jobs and customers have a great experience whenever interacting with Tesco.
