## About the role

Pulumi Core and the Pulumi Providers ecosystem are the open source foundation that millions of developers rely on to manage cloud infrastructure. We're looking for a deeply technical Product Manager to own the roadmap for both to shape what cloud engineering looks like for the next decade. This role sits at the intersection of three things that are hard to do well together:

## What they're looking for

- 7+ years of experience in product management, engineering, or technical program management, with significant time spent on developer tools or infrastructure products
- Experience building developer tools or platforms (CLI, SDKs, APIs, infrastructure products)
- Strong intuition for CLI and terminal UX — you have opinions about good error messages, sensible defaults, progressive disclosure, and when interactivity helps vs. gets in the way
- Hands-on familiarity with modern cloud technologies (containers, Kubernetes, serverless, cloud APIs)
- Strong technical instincts with the ability to work closely with senior engineers and reason about architectural tradeoffs. Proven ability to ramp quickly in new technical domains and form strong product opinions
- Demonstrated ability to ship high-quality products in ambiguous or complex problem spaces
