OtherDigital Product Manager

This is a highly technical product leadership role focused on the lifecycle of a Kubernetes-based container platform.
You will shape product vision, strategy, roadmaps, and priorities across a strategic Platform as a Service portfolio.
The role combines hands-on technical understanding with product discovery, stakeholder engagement, and outcome-driven decision-making.
You will work across data centers and major cloud environments, including AWS and Azure.
Your work will help create a scalable, secure, self-healing, and frictionless platform for digital product teams.
You will also champion continuous learning, coach stakeholders and product teams, and help drive adoption of platform capabilities.
The environment is agile, collaborative, technically sophisticated, and designed for people who enjoy solving complex problems independently.

Define and execute the product strategy for an expanding Kubernetes container platform, ensuring priorities align with business and technology objectives.
Own the product roadmap and backlog, balancing new capabilities, enhancements, lifecycle management, security, operational risk, and measurable business outcomes.
Partner with technical and business stakeholders to identify needs, define success criteria, validate assumptions, and translate complex requirements into actionable product initiatives.
Lead discovery and test-and-learn activities to validate product direction and reduce uncertainty before investing in new capabilities.
Analyze complex container and cloud technologies and use those insights to inform product decisions and platform evolution.
Manage lifecycle activities across the technology stack, ensuring components remain current and meet vulnerability-management standards without disrupting hosted applications.
Develop product metrics and KPIs to measure adoption, effectiveness, and outcomes, using insights to continuously refine the product strategy.
Create communication strategies that improve platform awareness, adoption, transparency, and alignment among technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Break complex challenges into manageable work items and prioritize them according to value, risk, and stakeholder impact.
Collaborate across product, engineering, infrastructure, security, and other teams to implement decisions and initiatives effectively.
Coach and mentor product teams, stakeholders, and peers while contributing to a culture of continuous learning and improvement.
