Role
Who you are
- In this role, you’ll combine a broad knowledge of cloud infrastructure, security and conformance with a deep understanding of enterprise leadership teams and competitors
- You have 8+ years of engineering, product management, program management, or equivalent experience
- You have previous work experience designing and delivering modern enterprise SaaS applications
- You’ve used and are deeply familiar with modern cloud software development and security practices
- You have strong technical abilities and a track record of delighting customers with elegant user experiences for complex tasks
- You have built and actively participated in inclusive team environments
- You clearly communicate both verbally and in writing
Desirable

- You have demonstrated experience working with disciplines like Sales, Marketing, and Support
- You have experience creating developer tools or working closely with DevOps teams
- You have experience entering a new area, immersing yourself in data and details, and building a strong understanding and point of view
What the job involves
- We’re looking for an experienced, visionary Product Manager to lead the strategy for the Pulumi Insights product and help grow the Pulumi vision of being the trusted partner for cloud Infrastructure leadership teams
- You’ll combine that customer understanding with your own past experience building cloud first applications to be the voice of the customer when working with engineering
- You’ll define, prioritize, and ship features that delight our users and deliver on the vision, and you’ll be working with a diverse and globally distributed team along the way
- Partner with the SVP and CEO to define the product vision for the Pulumi Insights product and manage the roadmap for delivering on that vision
- Work closely with one or more engineering managers to deliver steady progress on your roadmap while balancing engineering and tech debt investments
- Build a deep understanding of Pulumi’s customers to understand how they do cloud engineering and what their unmet needs are
- Collaborate with UX design and engineering to create, specify, and deliver innovative and impactful solutions to our customers’ needs
- Own features from idea to successful adoption, working with marketing, customer success, sales, and our community to ensure that features aren’t just built, but also used and loved by our customers
- Turn plentiful data into insights that inform our decision making
- Define the right input and output metrics to measure the success of features we build and create a feedback loop from these metrics back into your product vision and roadmap
Our take
The Infrastructure-as-code space is new and growing, thanks to the increasing complexity of cloud services, and their increasing adoption by developers and teams who would rather not manage them. Pulumi works to bring together infrastructure, developer, and security teams to help build and operate these cloud applications, better.
The service is compatible with all clouds and all major programming languages, meaning it’s casting its net appropriately wide to shore itself up against unpredictable new developments in the market. This breadth of scope saw Pulumi win 10x growth in adoption over 2019 alone, and the company has since expanded out into what it hopes will provide a more comprehensive cloud engineering platform. This means the addition of capabilities like governance and compliance features, testing support, and policy as code - all shoring up its already strong position in the space.
Also playing firmly in Pulumi’s favor is that it’s been built as cloud-native from the ground up, meaning that it has a head start on earlier infrastructure-as-code businesses that needed to pivot to accommodate new developments like serverless and multi-cloud tech. Plus, its multi-language compatibility means that silos don’t form so readily as they do with rival HashiCorp’s Terraform, which requires that developers learn a proprietary language.
