Requirements
- Hands-on, startup-minded PM comfortable working without heavy process or structure.
- Strong technical understanding — ideally with exposure to infrastructure automation or orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Ansible, CI/CD, or similar).
- Excellent communication and clarity in writing — specs, product decisions, and public-facing documentation.
- Full ownership mentality. You iterate quickly based on feedback and don't wait to be told what to do.
- Experience or familiarity with open-source development — comfortable writing publicly and discussing product changes in GitHub repositories.
- Comfortable working with globally distributed teams across time zones.
Nice To Haves
- Past experience as a software or infrastructure engineer.
- Experience in a B2B software or open-source company.
- Exposure to SaaS products , especially self-serve or platform-oriented.
- Familiarity with developer communities and how they adopt tools.
Responsibilities
- Own the full product lifecycle : understand user problems, define technical specs, prototype (AI tools encouraged), and work closely with developers to ship high-quality releases.
- Collaborate with the Product Lead and CTO to shape and scope features for each 8-week release cycle.
- Make informed tradeoffs — balancing simplicity, technical feasibility, and long-term sustainability.
- Coordinate development progress and ensure features are delivered, QA'd, documented, and ready to go.
- Drive continuous improvement based on customer feedback, usage data, and community input.
Benefits
- Competitive compensation, equity, and health insurance.
