Nominal powers mission-critical engineering with advanced data infrastructure, real-time observability, and analysis tools — all in one collaborative platform. Backed by General Catalyst, Lightspeed and Sequoia.
About the role
Production adoption depends on customers trusting Nominal to run predictably at scale. This PM owns the customer journey for operating Nominal reliably across the deployment options customers prefer: fully managed, bring-your-own-cloud (BYOC), and self-hosted. You'll help administrators and developers configure capacity, observe health, recover from incidents, and scale. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Prior ownership of the roadmap for a cloud infrastructure, database, or developer-platform product
- Experience shipping a capacity management, observability, backup and recovery, or availability feature for a production service
- A track record of turning operational failure data, such as incidents, support escalations, or SLO misses, into customer-facing improvements that shipped
- Depth in operational metrics, shown by journey or service metrics you defined and reported, such as time to provision, configuration success rate, or uptime
- Experience owning a product area that spanned multiple engineering teams
- A background in products built on Kubernetes, a managed database, or a workload scheduler
More about this role
Engineers today are building some of the most ambitious machines humanity has ever seen. They should have AI that’s purpose-built for them.
Nominal is building the Hardware Intelligence Platform that gives engineers increased visibility into complex physical systems, helps them make better decisions, and ultimately gets their products into the real world faster. It brings together the systems, data, intelligence, and applications hardware engineering requires to meet the AI moment. Hardware engineering teams use Nominal to simulate, test, manufacture, and operate the physical systems that keep the world moving, from spacecraft and autonomous vehicles to next-generation energy systems and robotics.
