## 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
