Product Manager - Data Center System and Manageability Software

About the role

We are seeking an experienced Senior Product Manager to define, build, and scale our Data Center System and Manageability Software Portfolio. In this role, you will lead the strategy and execution for system software, firmware, telemetry, and out-of-band/in-band manageability capabilities, ensuring next-generation hyperscale and enterprise infrastructure operates reliably, securely, and efficiently at scale for Intel Datacenter GPUs.

Primary Location: US, California, Santa Clara. Additional Locations: US, Arizona, Phoenix; US, California, Folsom; US, Oregon, Hillsboro; US, Texas, Austin.

Responsibilities

• Product Strategy and Roadmap: Define multi-generational product roadmaps for system software, firmware (UEFI/BMC), telemetry, and orchestration interfaces across data center GPU products.
• Cross-Functional Alignment: Partner closely with silicon, platform hardware, firmware, OS, and cloud software engineering teams to align architectural dependencies and platform release schedules.
• Customer and Market Discovery: Drive deep technical discovery with cloud service providers (CSPs), enterprise customers, and OEMs/ODMs to translate complex infrastructure operational pain points into clear product requirements (PRDs).
• Fleet Manageability and Observability: Champion standard-based manageability (e.g., Redfish, OpenBMC, PLDM) and robust telemetry pipelines to ensure platforms are observable, controllable, and secure at hyperscale.
• Execution and Lifecycle Management: Own the complete lifecycle from PRD generation and engineering sprint prioritization to platform bring-up, validation, security patching, and end-of-life planning.
