60 Optimum Operations Manager Jobs Hiring Near You

Optimum is a leading provider of Mobile, Broadband (DOCSIS, Fiber) and Video services in the United States for Business and Residential Customers.  The Product Development organization is responsible for the technology enablement and development of these technologies for our customers along with the tools used by our teams to support them.

The Product Operations Manager II (POMII) will join a rapidly growing Five9s team dedicated to optimizing product quality and operational processes across Optimum's product value streams. Our primary mission is to improve and deliver exceptional customer experience. In this role, you will support the platforms and technology that agents rely on to serve customers every day. You will investigate persistent product and operational issues across customer-facing agent tools and the underlying technology stack, partnering with cross-functional teams to validate impact, track root causes, and drive resolution.

The ideal candidate is comfortable tracing customer-impacting issues across API, integration, and business-rule layers. They understand REST/API fundamentals - request/response patterns, error codes, timeouts, and downstream dependencies - and can separate noise from actionable defects when analyzing platform performance. Beyond execution, you'll help refine internal processes and support product initiatives that directly enhance customer experience. At Optimum, we value curiosity, accountability, and creative thinking, and we create space for every team member to lead, grow, and make an impact.

• Validate reporting accuracy for key operational metrics (e.g., error taxonomy, issue/cause codes, birth certificate completion)
• Can investigate agent workflow defects: broken diagnostic flows, missing paths, incorrect issue coding, API latency in agent steps
• Provide visibility into what's not working post-launch and support strategic remediation planning

Project Management

• • Partners with product, care, field, and quality teams to validate real-world pain points
  • Leverage Confluence and Jira tickets to create and maintain detailed documentation and organization across multiple teams
