Product Owner, Sales Technology, Linkedin Marketing Solutions

Product Owner, Sales Technology, LinkedIn Marketing Solutions

This role will be based in Chicago, New York, or San Francisco depending on where the candidate selected is currently residing.

At LinkedIn, our approach to flexible work is centered on trust and optimized for culture, connection, clarity, and the evolving needs of our business. The work location of this role is hybrid, meaning it will be performed both from home and from a LinkedIn office on select days, as determined by the business needs of the team.

This role within Global Go-to-Market (GTM) Operations will drive global Sales Technology initiatives for LinkedIn's Marketing Solutions (LMS) business. You will own and scale both third-party (3P) and first-party (1P) Sales tools, acting as the Product Owner for sales performance management (SPM) use cases. In this capacity, you will transform and streamline critical processes including sales planning, quota setting, forecasting, and crediting.

You will also serve as a key partner to Engineering and Technical Program Management (TPM), representing business requirements for 1P tool development and acting as the "voice of the business" on GTM Technology initiatives. Success in this role requires building strong relationships with business leaders, collaborating cross-functionally to identify opportunities, and delivering scalable, best-in-class solutions.

This is an opportunity to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of GTM Operations for LinkedIn's growing advertising business.
