Strategic Technical Product Manager Observability & Platform Engineering
A large, dynamic tech company is looking for a Strategic Technical Product Manager. Within their foundation domain, the Reliability Engineering (RE) team is the driving force behind the professionalisation and acceleration of 30+ internal DevOps teams. The team has grown from an enabling team into a mature platform team, owning a tech stack and a growing self-service platform running on AWS/Azure with Docker and Kubernetes.
The focus is now on increasing adoption and maximising the value of these internal developer products across the entire engineering organisation.
What you will do.
- Set the product vision for the technical backbone used by 30+ DevOps teams.
- Transform an observability platform into a go-to tool every engineer depends on.
- Bridge the gap between technology and user.
- Apply a Silicon Valley Product Group mindset to validate desirability, feasibility and viability.
- Shape your own role in a hands-on, entrepreneurial environment.
Profile
- 5+ years of experience as a Product Owner or Product Manager.
- A strategist who defines the 'why' behind the product, not a backlog admin.
- Deep technical affinity: understanding of observability concepts (logs, traces, APM), SRE principles and platform engineering.
- Agency: you spot work, pick it up, and don't wait to be told.
- Experience working with or for software engineering teams.
- A product-driven approach: you validate user needs before building.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to connect your team, users and other Product Owners.
- An outspoken opinion, delivered constructively.
