Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end Platform product suite roadmap — covering developer surfaces (REST APIs, Console, CLI, SDKs, Terraform provider, ISOs) and account-level capabilities (Billing, Account Activity, Audit Logs, Regions, IAM, Sub Accounts, Admin, Instance Templates, Custom Images, Startup Scripts, SSH Keys, and Support Tickets)
• Define Vultr's platform and developer experience strategy aligned to infrastructure roadmap, reliability goals, and the needs of both digital-native builders and enterprise customers adopting the cloud
• Drive the customer-facing platform surface across APIs, Console UI, CLI, SDKs — ensuring consistency, completeness, and a coherent experience across all touchpoints
• Own the API as a product — define versioning strategy, deprecation policy, rate limiting, pagination, error handling, and authentication flows that make Vultr's API a first-class developer experience
• Own the Console as a product — drive the web-based control plane experience, working with design and frontend engineering to make complex infrastructure operations intuitive and efficient
• Own the Terraform provider, CLI, and SDKs — ensure our infrastructure-as-code and programmatic tooling stays current with API changes and represents best-in-class developer tooling practices
• Own the account management and governance product surface — Billing, IAM, Sub Accounts, Audit Logs, and Admin tools that give customers control over access, spending, and compliance posture
• Own the operational product surface — Regions, Instance Templates, Custom Images, Startup Scripts, SSH Keys, and Support Tickets that customers use daily to manage and automate their infrastructure at scale
• Work closely with engineering on technical tradeoffs across API design, authentication flows, rate limiting, caching strategies, SDK generation, CLI architecture, and Console frontend performance
• Build products for two customer profiles — digital-native builders who want speed and simplicity, and enterprise adopters who need IAM, audit trails, sub-account governance, and programmatic control
• Ensure new infrastructure and platform launches are API-first and Console-ready by design through strong partnership with compute, network, storage, security, and AI teams
• Define and measure platform health metrics — API availability, latency, error rates, SDK adoption, Console task completion rates, CLI active usage, and developer satisfaction
