Product Manager Intern

NetApp, Inc.

About The Position

NetApp is seeking a curious, self-driven Product Manager Intern to support the Multi-Cloud Storage Developer Experience team, with a focus on Product-Led Growth (PLG) strategy and developer tooling. This internship offers hands-on experience working on products that help developers discover, adopt, and integrate NetApp's cloud storage services — Azure NetApp Files (ANF), Google Cloud NetApp Volumes (GCNV), and Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP (FSxN) — directly from the tools they already use. You'll work alongside experienced Product Managers, engineers, and hyperscaler partners to accelerate developer onboarding, improve self-serve adoption, and shape the future of cloud storage developer experience. If you're excited about AI-powered tooling and the intersection of infrastructure and developer platforms, this is the internship for you.

Requirements

Strong interest in product management, developer experience, PLG, or cloud infrastructure platforms.
Curiosity about AI-powered tooling, IDE extensions, or agentic workflows — hands-on experience is a strong plus.
Analytical mindset with the ability to connect developer behavior signals to product decisions.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable writing PRDs, one-pagers, or competitive briefs.
Familiarity with cloud platforms (Azure, GCP, AWS) or storage concepts is a plus, not a requirement.
Scrappy, resourceful, and comfortable operating with ambiguity in a fast-moving environment.
Must be enrolled in an educational or professional program through Summer 2026 or later, preferably pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Business, or a related technical field.

Nice To Haves

Hands-on experience with AI-powered tooling, IDE extensions, or agentic workflows.

Responsibilities

Assist the PM team in executing go-to-market motions for developer-led adoption of cloud storage services, including tracking activation funnels, time-to-value metrics, and self-serve onboarding completion rates across ANF, GCNV, and FSxN.
Help evolve the ANF VS Code Extension and related developer tools — including natural language command interfaces, K8s integration templates, and agentic storage workflows — by gathering developer feedback, documenting feature gaps, and coordinating with engineering on backlog items.
Support the team's MCP (Model Context Protocol) integration work by researching agentic AI frameworks, cataloging use cases, and helping in research.
Identify friction points in the developer onboarding journey for multi-cloud storage provisioning, and propose simplification or automation opportunities that reduce time-to-first-volume.
Monitor developer community signals (GitHub issues, VS Code Marketplace reviews, Stack Overflow threads, hyperscaler forums) and synthesize insights to inform product priorities.
Research how competing cloud storage providers (AWS EFS, Azure Blob, Google Filestore) approach developer experience, PLG, and IDE integrations, and summarize findings into actionable competitive briefs.
Help track PLG KPIs — extension installs, active users, onboarding completion, API adoption — and prepare dashboards or decks that communicate progress to leadership.
