Job Level
About the role
- Act as the "tip of the spear" for the DoiT Partner Platform: Serve as the foremost product authority and a leader amongst peers, driving alignment across multiple product squads and setting the bar for product excellence.
- Own the overarching strategy, delivery, iteration, and learning velocity for major platform components.
- Partner with VP-level leadership to define strategic direction, translating it into clear problems to solve and shippable scope.
- Direct and mentor other Technical Product Owners to elevate product management practices, ensuring cohesive execution across the entire platform portfolio.
- Drive the feedback loop across teams: discover → define → build → release → measure → iterate, repeatedly.
- Review technical designs, reason about complex tradeoffs and constraints, and understand their impact on delivery timelines and system behavior, without being the primary implementer.
- Leverage your hands-on experience within the cloud ecosystem and understanding of channel, reseller, and partner business models.
- Develop deep empathy for the workflows of cloud partners: billing operations, margin management, reseller customer management, support operations, and service delivery.
- Use direct partner conversations and operational insight to identify friction, gaps, and strategic opportunities to improve how partners run their cloud businesses.
- Bring strong understanding of cloud billing constructs, marketplace programs, margin models, and partner incentives across hyperscalers.
- Help shape complex platform capabilities that manage or abstract complexity in areas such as Multi-cloud billing aggregation, Partner margin and discount models, Customer invoicing and revenue operations, Usage and cost transparency, Marketplace and private offer workflows.
- Speak frequently with key partners (aiming for 3–5 conversations a week) and internal stakeholders to validate ideas, refine workflows, and test assumptions.
- Engage deeply with executive stakeholders at cloud partners, MSPs, SIs, and resellers to understand how they operate their cloud businesses.
- Communicate clearly and confidently: share concepts early, take feedback openly, synthesize input into strategic decisions, and explain "why" in a way that builds trust and consensus among peers and leadership.
- Operate as a core leader working closely with Engineering leaders—present in daily collaboration, crisp in decision-making, and pragmatic about constraints.
- Partner with Engineering leads on sequencing, technical tradeoffs, and delivery planning—ensuring product intent survives implementation realities.
- Ensure components are cohesive across UX, APIs, data, and operational behavior, supporting partner-grade reliability and scalability.
- Define what “success” means for the platform portfolio with clear metrics (partner adoption, onboarding speed, billing accuracy, workflow completion, retention, reliability signals, partner-reported impact).
- Instrument learning: ensure releases are measurable and that insights reliably flow back into portfolio prioritization.
- Ensure platform capabilities account for the operational realities of the cloud partner ecosystem, including billing accuracy, financial reconciliation, and auditability.
Requirements
- Extensive product leadership experience with 10+ years of direct experience in the cloud ecosystem, ideally across roles such as cloud operations, FinOps, partner operations, or building platforms that serve cloud customers or partners.
- Proven ability to act as a "player-coach"—driving high-level strategy, executing hands-on alongside engineering, and directing/mentoring other product owners as a respected peer leader.
- Strong experience with cloud billing systems, cost and usage data, or revenue operations within cloud environments.
- Deep understanding of the cloud partner ecosystem (resellers, MSPs, SIs, distributors, marketplaces). Candidates have likely worked within the partner ecosystem at some point in their careers.
- Experience building or operating platforms that serve channel or partner-driven business models.
- Strong product sense for turning messy operational problems into clear scope and shipped value with an excellent user experience.
- Technical fluency in cloud fundamentals and APIs across AWS, Google Cloud, and/or Azure.
- Coding experience is a plus—enough to collaborate effectively with engineers, reason about feasibility, and understand system behaviors.
- Must have demonstrated experience using AI to accelerate product specifications and development.
- Excellent communication skills: ability to engage deeply with partners, cloud experts, and internal stakeholders at the executive level.
- A bias for action and continuous improvement: you ship, measure, learn, and iterate.
