Deloitte US · Atlanta, United States +27 · 4d ago
The Team
ConvergeSPORTS is a product-driven business combining Deloitte's sports industry experience with proprietary data, AI-native decision intelligence, and reusable Converge capabilities. We help sports organizations grow revenue, deepen fan engagement, optimize partnerships, and improve commercial performance while operating with the focus of a product company. Our teams work with leagues, teams, venues, rights holders, media organizations, sponsors, and brands across fan data, digital experiences, and commercial analytics. Cross-functional product teams turn market needs into scalable products and repeatable decision workflows rather than one-off solutions.
This role leads the digital product group, which owns the fan-facing digital portfolio across mobile, web, streaming, personalization, and merchandising experiences. The group brings together content, identity, engagement, personalization, notifications, and commercial experiences, and works with Architecture, iOS and Android Engineering, Backend Engineering, Data, Design, and Go-to-Market to deliver measurable releases.
Position Summary
Are you a digital product leader who has built and scaled fan-facing experiences across mobile, web, and streaming for major sports and media brands? ConvergeSPORTS is assembling a senior product group to take its digital portfolio to market, and this role leads it. If you want ownership of a portfolio rather than a single feature set, we would like to talk with you.
Recruiting for this role ends on 10/31/2026.

- Partner with Architecture, iOS and Android Engineering, Backend Engineering, Data, and Design to sequence work and align roadmap with platform capability.
- Define required identity, event data, content, notification, and personalization capabilities with Engineering and Data partners.

- Develop product narratives, demo flows, sales enablement materials, and executive roadmap communications.

- Portfolio-level product judgment, with the ability to sequence competing product bets against business outcomes.
- Ability to connect fan needs, sports and media business outcomes, and platform capability into a coherent strategy.

- Ability to develop other product managers and raise the standard of product thinking across a group.
- Clear executive communication, including the ability to make a recommendation and own the decision.
- Collaborative influence across matrixed teams without relying on direct authority.
