Kforce Inc is looking for a Senior Product Manager specializing in Digital Asset Management (DAM) to lead the implementation and evolution of their enterprise DAM capability. This role involves defining the product direction, managing execution, and ensuring adoption of DAM within the merchandising systems ecosystem.
Responsibilities:
- Own the product vision, roadmap, and execution for Digital Asset Management as part of the Merchandising Systems portfolio
- Lead DAM solution implementation and rollout, including platform configuration, integration strategy, and phased adoption across brands and teams
- Define DAM's role within the broader ecosystem, ensuring clear separation from creative production tools while enabling downstream activation and reuse
- Partner with Engineering and Architecture to design and evolve API-driven integrations between DAM and upstream/downstream systems (e.g., creative tools, PIM, WAM, rendering and image services)
- Define and enforce metadata strategy and governance, including enterprise attribution alignment, enrichment workflows (native or external), and data quality standards
- Act as the primary product owner and subject-matter expert for DAM, representing the platform in cross-functional discussions and decision forums
Requirements:
- 5+ years of experience in Product Management or senior business systems roles, with ownership of enterprise platforms
- Direct experience implementing, scaling, or operating Digital Asset Management (DAM) solutions at scale in a retail, eCommerce, or content-rich environment
- DAM experience should not focus on upstream workflows, rather working with close-to-be approved assets and making them available for the website
- Strong understanding of metadata, taxonomy, and content governance, and how they enable automation and reuse
- Experience working with large product assortments and high-volume digital assets
- Ability to articulate a clear POV on DAM's role relative to creative production tools, marketing workflows, and digital delivery platforms
- Solid technical foundation, with the ability to understand and discuss APIs, integrations, data models, and architectural trade-offs
- Proven ability to lead change management and adoption across diverse business teams
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills across executive, business, and technical audiences
- Comfortable operating in ambiguous environments and making informed trade-offs
- Experience working in Agile or iterative delivery environments
- Knowledge of retail merchandising, eCommerce platforms, or digital content ecosystems
