About this role

As a Technical Product Manager at [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal], your role sits at the nexus of technology, customer needs and market opportunity. It is not a traditional product management position; we’re looking for someone who thinks like a developer and wants to build tools for developers like themselves. You’ll blend deep technical and architectural expertise with an ability to take new products to market successfully, and obsess about building a world-class developer experience.

Day to day you will

• Lead a visionary product strategy. You’ll partner with our founders, senior management and engineering leadership to build and deliver a successful strategy for your product areas. You’ll own the lifecycle of key products and features from initial conception through to commercial strategy and go-to-market execution.
• Drive product adoption. You’ll work cross-functionally with Sales and Marketing teams to translate [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal]’s technical capabilities into clear value propositions and successful launches.
• Immerse yourself in the developer community. You’ll dedicate significant time to speaking directly with developers, building a deep knowledge base of customer feedback.
• Guide engineering outcomes. You’ll operate as a peer to our tech leads, articulating clear problem statements and UX wireframes or API scaffolding where appropriate.
• Elevate the developer experience. You’ll obsess about building end-to-end experiences that delight developers.
• Harness data and insights to fuel innovation. You’ll define and analyse product metrics, and feed learnings back into the development process.

We'd love to talk if you have

• Proven experience managing early-stage technical B2B SaaS or API-first products, with a track record of driving technical improvements and commercial outcomes.
• A background in software engineering and an understanding of modern web technologies and associated ecosystems. You must have the ability to write code in at least one modern language to build prototypes that use our APIs.
• Experience using developer tools. You should have a favorite text editor, be familiar with composing CLI tools, and be the first user of the products you’re shipping.
• A developer-first instinct and natural empathy for your users. You understand API design, documentation and the things that differentiate the developer journey.
• Experience at a startup or growth-stage company or adaptability to thrive in a fast-paced, agile environment.

Bonus points if you have

• Experience building or managing Chat APIs or real-time messaging and communication platforms.
• Experience delivering solutions used by developers (developer tools or APIs), or closely related solutions for other technical personas.
• An understanding of pub/sub and familiarity with distributed systems and event based architectures.
