Company mission
Retool's mission is to create the future of internal software by making software development for engineers simpler and more accessible.
Role
Who you are
- 7+ years of product management experience, ideally in platforms, developer tools, or collaboration ecosystems
- Experience with platform and ecosystem design (e.g., component libraries, SDKs, app templates, marketplaces, or APIs)
- Strong product judgment and systems thinking—able to define primitives that scale across hundreds of use cases
- Ability to work deeply with engineering and design partners to turn abstract concepts into practical frameworks
- Excellent communication and narrative skills—able to connect the vision of reuse and sharing to business value
- Curiosity, humility, and a collaborative mindset to build across multiple teams and stakeholders
What the job involves
- You’ll own Retool’s strategy for Reusability and Sharing—how customers build once and benefit everywhere. That means making Retool easier to use within organizations by enabling safe reuse of components, templates, data, and logic; and, over time, extending that value beyond them into a broader ecosystem of shared solutions
- You’ll define how Retool evolves from a tool-building platform to a network of builders and components, where customers can create, share, and remix trusted modules with the same confidence they have deploying code
- You’ll collaborate closely with engineering, design, and product counterparts across the core Retool experience—especially UI & Logic, Data & Security, and Platform teams
- You’ll also partner with GTM, Docs, and Developer Relations to help customers discover and adopt shared building blocks, and with leadership to shape the long-term product vision around the “Retool ecosystem.”
- Define the long-term vision and roadmap for Reusability and Sharing across apps, workflows, and AI agents
- Develop the primitives—like shared components, libraries, templates, and prebuilt functions—that make reuse seamless and safe
- Design how teams collaborate within Retool: permissions, governance, and versioning models for shared assets
- Lay the groundwork for an eventual ecosystem of Retool-built and community-built modules, including external sharing and marketplace capabilities
- Partner with Data & Security to ensure shared assets meet enterprise compliance, audit, and provenance requirements
- Collaborate with GTM, DevRel, and Docs to drive discoverability, adoption, and evangelism of reusable building blocks
- Define metrics that capture compounding value across reuse (e.g., % of apps built using shared components, time-to-first-app, cross-team adoption)
Our take
Retool allows developers to build internal applications quickly using a complete set of ready-made building blocks. These internal applications can be used to display company data from a range of sources, including Redis, Salesforce, Google Cloud, and Slack.
For a monthly fee, the platform enables companies to save time that they would have otherwise spent on developing their own internal applications. Retool brands itself as 'low-code,' meaning that it is easy to use and customize. There is a huge demand for systems that allow teams to analyze the data they already have. Retool already counts brands such as Amazon, Philips, Peloton, NBC, and Mercedes-Benz as customers.
Retool was founded in 2017, and the company is now valued at over $1 billion. Founded by Oxford graduate David Hsu, the management team includes ex-Stripe and ex-Airbnb employees with plenty of experience in taking a company from a start-up to a global brand. Retool was awarded $45 million in Series C in 2022, which it is using to expand its workforce, tweak its platform, and develop new products.
