Overview

We’re not just building better tech. We’re rewriting how data moves and what the world can do with it. With Confluent, data doesn’t sit still. Our platform puts information in motion, streaming in near real-time so companies can react faster, build smarter, and deliver experiences as dynamic as the world around them.

It takes a certain kind of person to join this team. Those who ask hard questions, give honest feedback, and show up for each other. No egos, no solo acts. Just smart, curious humans pushing toward something bigger, together.

One Confluent. One Team. One Data Streaming Platform.

About the Role:

Confluent Cloud delivers a complete end-to-end streaming experience via a Software as a Service (SaaS) model. To deliver a simple, understandable, and scalable product experience requires abstracting the complex interactions of underlying cloud infrastructure, networking, storage, and compute powering a stateful distributed system.

As a Senior Product Manager on the Cloud Networking Product team, you’ll contribute to the mission of making connectivity to and from Confluent Cloud reliable, scalable, secure, cost efficient and simple to use so that users can focus on building streaming applications instead of managing infrastructure. Cloud networking with focus on private networking is an enabler for all services offered on Confluent Cloud and is a strategic investment area for Confluent with the potential to impact the company’s top and bottom lines.

You’ll be responsible for the success of major product initiatives, from initial conception to execution and launch. You’ll become the trusted resource for your product, making sure that the engineering, design, sales, and marketing have what they need to make the right tradeoffs, build the right product, and grow it successfully in the market.

What You Will Do:

Understand our users: Conduct interviews and analyze data to define personas, user journeys, and key jobs to be done.

Drive crucial aspects of Confluent Cloud Network Roadmap supporting Confluent Cloud services like Kafka, Flink, Connectors, Data Governance, etc with a heavy focus on user experience and cost efficiency.

Define flexible interfaces powering API, CLI and Terraform, data models, and processes and launch a variety of new network options and rapidly iterate on existing ones

Be responsible for the whole lifecycle: Drive multi-team, cross-functional initiatives from conception through initial delivery and ongoing iteration after launch.

Close the loop: Define quantitative and qualitative targets, measure performance against them, share results with stakeholders, and incorporate those learnings into the product.

Manage complexity: Deliver value while handling the surprises and challenges of a quickly evolving product, ambitious partnership targets, and a rapidly growing organization.

What You Will Bring:

5+ years of experience as a Product Manager with focus on cloud technologies.

Experience building and supporting enterprise-grade products as a product manager, engineer or solutions architect.

Experience building, writing, maintaining and defending a clear product roadmap and backlog backed by user stories and customer research.

Excellent analytical, communication & collaboration skills.

Ability to build relationships with co-workers and customers located around the world.

Demonstrated ability to drive business outcomes through product changes.

What Gives You an Edge:

6+ years of experience in Networking in a PM or technical role

Experience with enabling AWS/Azure/GCP private networking features such as Private Link, VPC Peering, Transit Gateway, etc for a SaaS product.

Experience with Envoy, Service Mesh, DNS and Kubernetes Networking.

Experience with network traffic metering and billing.

Domain expertise in networking technologies combined with Product Management experience. An MBA degree is a plus.
