About this role

We are looking for a highly skilled, collaborative, and forward-thinking Technical Product Manager to lead our product team. In this dual-focus role, you will drive the product vision and roadmap for cloud-native microservices, while also driving AI product initiatives, strategizing the integration of agentic workflows and GenAI models to solve complex business challenges.

You'll work closely with a team of like-minded engineers and designers who use automated CI/CD pipelines to continuously ship clean, secure, and production-ready features. A key part of this role is prioritizing features that build strong observability into our systems, including logging, monitoring, and alerting, to ensure performance, reliability, and rapid issue detection across our platforms.

The ideal candidate is passionate about product strategy, technical architecture, and staying current with cutting-edge AI capabilities. You should thrive in a collaborative environment, be committed to delivering user-centric value, and be excited to help shape both the product roadmap and the intelligent capabilities of our platforms.
