This team owns the developer experience end-to-end: CI/CD, build systems, internal tooling, developer environments, observability, and the feedback loops that tie it all together. The work is foundational , the kind of platform investment that compounds quietly and shows up in every team's velocity.

You'll be the person who keeps it moving.

This is also an explicitly AI-native role. You'll be expected to embed AI into how this team works and builds , and help the broader engineering organization do the same.

About the role:

• Location: Remote-first (United States; BC & ON, Canada)
• Full-time
• Permanent
• Exempt
• The cash compensation for this role is tailored to align with the cost of labor in different geographic markets.

Responsibilities:

• Translate engineering team needs and pain points into a clear, prioritized roadmap, working closely with your engineering counterparts to keep the team focused on the highest-impact work.
• Track and report on the metrics that reflect developer experience health. You'll use data and qualitative insights to surface bottlenecks, measure progress, and make the case for what the team should work on next.
• Partner with engineers, TPMs, and cross-functional stakeholders to scope and deliver platform improvements that reduce friction across CI/CD, build systems, developer environments, and observability.
• Write crisp specs and requirements that give engineers what they need to move fast - clear problem framing, explicit success criteria, and well-defined tradeoffs.
• Evaluate and champion the integration of AI and agentic tooling into developer workflows. You'll assess what actually creates leverage versus what's noise, and help the team build a point of view on where these tools belong.
• Communicate platform health, progress, and tradeoffs to engineering leadership and cross-functional partners with consistency and clarity.
• Keep feedback loops tight , between engineers using the platform and the team building it.

About you:

• Requirements:

+ BA/BS degree or equivalent experience

• You'll thrive in this role if you:

+ Have 3+ years of product management experience, with at least one of the following: a hands-on engineering background (you've shipped production code) or direct PM ownership of a developer experience, developer productivity, or platform/infrastructure product. + Can read code, engage substantively with a technical architecture doc, and hold your own in a room full of engineers , not just translate between them and stakeholders. + Have direct familiarity with developer tooling: CI/CD systems, build pipelines, observability platforms, local dev environments. You've either used these tools or managed a team that builds them. + Are fluent in developer productivity metrics , you know what DORA measures, why cycle time matters as a leading indicator, and how to tell signal from noise in platform health data. + Have hands-on experience with AI and agentic systems , you understand how LLM-based tools fit into developer workflows, where they break down, and how to evaluate them with rigor rather than hype. + Execute with speed and precision. You thrive in a high-velocity environment, manage ambiguity without stalling, and make calls without waiting for perfect information. + Are resilient and self-directed. Platform work has long feedback loops and low external visibility , you stay motivated by compounding impact, not spotlight. + Communicate clearly in writing , you can make technical tradeoffs legible to non-technical stakeholders without losing the nuance. + Stay curious and open to growth , demonstrating a proactive embrace of AI, and actively building and applying fluency in emerging technologies to elevate how we work, drive faster outcomes, and expand collective impact.
