Product Manager - Unified Entity Layer

Join to apply for the Product Manager - Unified Entity Layer role at Meltwater .

About the role

We’re looking for a Product Manager to lead the evolution of our core data foundation—the structured layer that connects and contextualizes information across Meltwater’s ecosystem. You’ll shape and expand the semantic models that ensure key entities (such as organizations, channels, themes, etc.) are consistently identified and linked across our products. This role sits at the intersection of data architecture, enrichment, and product experience, translating complex data structures into intuitive, high‑value capabilities for customers.

Responsibilities

• Own and evolve the core entity data model that connects key entities across our products (e.g., organizations, sources, themes).
• Unify and standardize datasets to reduce duplication and improve consistency and data reliability.
• Define how entities are identified, matched, and maintained, combining automated methods with human review where needed.
• Work closely with AI & Enrichment teams to ensure entity context improves classification, sentiment, topics, and narrative understanding.
• Collaborate with Search & Retrieval teams to ensure fast, reliable entity‑aware search and filtering experiences.
• Set and monitor data quality measures, and drive ongoing improvements in accuracy, coverage, and consistency.

Qualifications

• 4+ years in Product Management working with data‑heavy systems such as data platforms, ML/NLP enrichment systems, or large‑scale information architectures.
• Customer‑value mindset: understanding how foundational data capabilities power end‑user workflows and translating platform capabilities into meaningful product improvements.
• Comfort working across teams: collaborating confidently with engineering, data science, and other product teams.
• Structured thinking: enjoying making sense of complex data and building clear frameworks instead of isolated features.
• Excellent communication skills: effectively translating data‑structure concepts into tangible product value for stakeholders.
• Strong technical understanding of structured data, APIs, and data modeling.
• Experience with entity models or structured data relationships (e.g., knowledge graphs, taxonomies) and their use in search, discovery, or interpretation of information.

Nice to Have

• Experience with graph databases.
• Experience in NLP, entity recognition, or data linking.
• Familiarity with data quality, enrichment, or ETL workflows.
• Background in semantic modeling or data unification.
• Exposure to media intelligence, social listening, or marketing analytics environments.

Benefits

• 26 days of annual paid time off plus an additional day off on your birthday.
• National and global health coverage through statutory health insurance.
• 30% employer contribution to our Company Pension scheme.
• Complimentary CalmApp subscription.
• Hybrid work style providing balance between office and remote.
• Family leave program that grows with tenure.
• Inclusive community and ongoing professional development opportunities.
