What is the difference between Ami vs Data Analyst?
| Aspect | Ami | Data Analyst |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Typically requires a certification in Ami or related software, sometimes a degree in IT or related field | Bachelor's degree in statistics, mathematics, or related field; certifications like CAP or Microsoft Excel certifications are common |
| Work Environment | Primarily in IT or software development settings, often involving technical troubleshooting and system management | Mostly in business, finance, or marketing environments analyzing data to inform decisions |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Used by IT companies, software firms, and tech departments | Used across industries like finance, healthcare, marketing, and consulting |
While Ami focuses on system management and technical tasks within IT environments, Data Analysts primarily interpret data to support business decisions. Both roles require analytical skills, but Ami is more technical and system-oriented, whereas Data Analysts focus on data interpretation and reporting.

Job description
The Product Subject Matter Expert leads the strategy, roadmap, and performance of the Sensus Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) head-end software platform. This role defines and delivers secure, scalable, and interoperable software capabilities that support utility meter-to-cash processes, device and network management, data collection and analytics, outage and event management, and seamless integration with utility enterprise systems.
You bring strong software product management experience with hands-on exposure to modern development practices, including the use of artificial intelligence to accelerate spec-driven development. You oversee the full software product lifecycle-from concept and launch through growth and end-of-life-while applying deep domain knowledge of AMI systems and the operational needs of electric, gas, and water utilities.
The Role
You will own the vision, strategy, and execution of Xylem's AMI head-end software platform, a mission-critical system that enables utilities to operate reliably, securely, and efficiently. You will translate customer, regulatory, and market needs into a scalable, cybersecure, and commercially successful software platform while leading cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality releases that drive customer and business outcomes.
This role combines product strategy, technical leadership, customer engagement, and P&L accountability, with direct influence on Xylem's digital growth strategy and utility customer experience.
Core Responsibilities
Product Strategy & Management
- Own the product vision, strategy, and multi-year roadmap for the AMI head-end software platform, aligned with customer needs, regulatory requirements, market trends, and Xylem's digital strategy.
- Translate customer, regulatory, and operational requirements into clear product strategies that prioritize reliability, interoperability, cybersecurity, scalability, and usability for utility operations teams.
- Define and prioritize the product backlog, including epics, features, acceptance criteria, and non-functional requirements.
- Lead cross-functional planning with Engineering, Architecture, UX, Program Management, Support, and Operations to deliver new AMI head-end capabilities, releases, and platform enhancements.
- Drive spec-driven development practices, leveraging AI-assisted tools to convert market insights and customer personas into high-quality requirements and test cases that improve development velocity and product quality.
Commercialization & Customer Engagement
- Own the financial performance of the AMI head-end platform, including margin accountability; track revenue, cost, and profitability drivers and identify actions to improve gross margin.
- Partner with Sales, Commercial Operations, and Regional teams to position the platform with clear value propositions for electric, gas, and water utilities.
- Support go-to-market planning, pricing, packaging, licensing, and bundling with metering devices, networks, and services.
- Engage directly with strategic customers, prospects, and partners to validate roadmap priorities, understand use cases, and gather feedback on product performance and usability.
- Represent the AMI head-end platform in customer meetings, industry events, and partner forums, clearly communicating product vision, roadmap, and differentiation.
- Collaborate with Marketing to develop product collateral, case studies, demos, and enablement materials emphasizing operational, financial, and sustainability outcomes.
- Work with Customer Success, Professional Services, and Support teams to ensure successful deployments, adoption, and ongoing value realization.
Cross-Functional Leadership
- Lead cross-functional teams across Engineering, Architecture, UX, DevOps/SRE, Security, Program Management, Operations, and Commercial functions to deliver high-quality releases on time and within budget.
- Partner with Engineering and Architecture to define technical direction, including cloud architecture, multi-tenant strategies, integration patterns, security controls, and scalability.
- Coordinate with other product managers to deliver cohesive, end-to-end customer experiences across metering, networks, grid, and analytics workflows.
- Serve as the internal subject-matter expert on AMI head-end capabilities, customer needs, and the competitive landscape, advising senior leadership on investments and priorities.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related technical field, or equivalent experience.
- Product management experience in software or SaaS products, including at least 3 years in utility, energy, grid, metering, or closely related domains.
- Demonstrated experience managing complex, mission-critical enterprise software products across the full lifecycle.
- Practical experience with Agile/Scrum, CI/CD, DevOps, and close collaboration with engineering and architecture teams.
- Proven ability to translate customer, regulatory, and market requirements into effective product strategies, roadmaps, and prioritized backlogs.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage technical teams, executives, and customers.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with AMI systems, meter data management (MDM), head-end platforms, or utility operational technology.
- Background in electric, gas, or water utility operations (e.g., meter-to-cash, outage management, distribution operations, field operations).
- Familiarity with public cloud platforms (AWS, Azure), microservices architectures, and API-first SaaS delivery models.
- Hands-on exposure to using AI in software development, analytics, or operational workflows.
- Experience working in a global, matrixed organization across regions and product lines.
Key Competencies
- Entrepreneurial Mindset: Drives business cases, P&L performance, and value creation.
- Customer Focus: Demonstrates deep empathy for utility operators and end users.
- Strategic Thinking: Defines and communicates a clear long-term platform vision.
- Delivery Excellence: Converts strategy into shipped software while managing trade-offs.
- Collaboration: Leads through influence in complex, cross-functional environments.
- Analytical Rigor: Uses KPIs, customer data, and financial metrics to guide decisions.
