Sr. Product Manager, Networking

With Confluent, organizations can harness the full power of continuously flowing data to innovate and win in the modern digital world. We have a purpose that drives us to do better every day – we're creating an entirely new category within data infrastructure - data streaming. This technology will allow every organization to create experiences and use the power of data in ways that profoundly impact the way we all live. This impact is our purpose and drives us to do better every day.

One Confluent. One team. One Data Streaming Platform.

Data Connects Us.

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.
