Principal Product Manager, Pricing - Packaging & Deal Strategy

• Own deal approvals and escalations across the full Control-M commercial queue in Salesforce, including migration pricing, license compliance resolutions, partner transactions, renewal economics, credit entitlements, and customer due-diligence questions.
• Define and publish written approval authority, exception policy, and a decision log, and arrange quarter-end coverage with a named backup so sellers always know who decides and how fast.
• Review mixed on-premises and SaaS deals as one economic model, including transition periods and revenue allocation, so customers can move to SaaS while BMC keeps the value of the relationship.
• Own the pricing architecture, packaging, SKUs, units of measure, discount structure, and offer lifecycle for Control-M on-premises and Control-M SaaS.
• Lead SaaS commercial simplification, including a simplified commercial model proposal and the retirement of legacy SKUs.
• Package add-ons and new offers, including AI credits and consumption-based capabilities, once the owning product manager has validated their value, and run controlled availability for new commercial models.
• Run a monetization review for roadmap items so every new capability goes into launch planning with its pricing and packaging decided.
• Build the commercial evidence for SaaS migration, partner, and outsourcer deals, and design migration offers and transition pricing in partnership with Professional Services.
• Provide the commercial interpretation of usage metrics, entitlements, anomaly treatment, and forgiveness thresholds for license compliance, and confirm that non-standard terms can be measured by usage reporting before they are approved.
• Build and maintain a commercial analytics baseline covering request volume, categories, handling time, rework, exception rate, discount distribution, and margin, and rank a quarterly commercial backlog by workload removed and revenue impact relative to implementation cost.

• 10+ years of experience in B2B enterprise software, including at least 5 years owning pricing and packaging, an enterprise deal desk, or commercial product management for software sold through a direct sales force
• A track record of changing a price book, approval matrix, discount structure, or SKU architecture, and measuring the result
• Strong understanding of subscription, consumption, usage-based, and migration economics, including on-premises to SaaS transitions
• The ability to model margin, cost-to-serve, renewal value, and transition economics, and to explain the trade-offs to senior leaders
• The product judgment to assess the buyer, value metric, and entitlement implications of a commercial decision
• The confidence to hold a decision line with senior sellers, and the openness to change the rule when the evidence shows it is wrong
• Hands-on experience with CPQ and CRM systems, ideally Salesforce
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including policy and decision documents that sellers can apply without a meeting
• Experience working with Finance, Legal, and Sales Operations on approval workflows and commercial controls
