About the role

We are looking for a Platform Product Manager to help shape how shared systems and foundations evolve as the company scales. The role focuses on spotting patterns across what teams are building, deciding when it makes sense to standardize, and ensuring foundations and shared components help teams move faster without adding overhead.

Responsibilities

  • Identify repeated engineering patterns and delivery friction across products and customers.
  • Determine when a shared system or standard should exist versus when work should remain product-owned.
  • Partner with engineering to define clear interfaces, ownership, and readiness expectations for shared systems.
  • Ensure shared foundations and components become the easiest and safest path for teams to ship.
  • Evaluate adoption and real-world usage of shared systems and use that feedback to guide iteration.
  • Keep platform processes lightweight and grounded in real delivery needs.
  • Protect product team velocity by avoiding premature standardization or unnecessary coordination.
  • Create clarity across teams by making ownership boundaries and expectations explicit.

Requirements

  • Shipped and scaled real systems and understand delivery tradeoffs.
  • Bring a technical or builder mindset and strong product judgment.
  • Know how to introduce standards without over-constraining teams.
  • Are comfortable operating in ambiguity and making high-impact decisions with incomplete information.
  • Communicate clearly across engineering and product.
  • Bias toward speed, leverage, and practical outcomes over process.

Qualifications

  • Experience in product management or related field.
  • Strong understanding of software development lifecycle and agile methodologies.
  • Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.

Skills

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Experience with product management tools and methodologies.
  • Understanding of software architecture and design patterns.
  • Knowledge of industry best practices for scaling and maintaining shared systems.

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation package.
  • Flexible working hours.
  • Professional development opportunities.
  • Work-life balance initiatives.

Pay

Commensurate with experience.

Schedule

Full-time.
