About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Own and drive the networking product roadmap across the full portfolio: VPC, routing, NAT/IGW, firewall/security groups, private connectivity, transit, DDoS, peering, and GPU/cluster networking.
Translate technical architecture decisions and infrastructure capabilities into product requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria that engineering can execute against.
Partner with the Cloud Networking engineering manager to align product priorities with engineering capacity, technical debt, and long-term architecture goals.
Define and document product requirements for new networking constructs: VPC features, routing modes, gateway capabilities, cross-region connectivity, RDMA/RoCE fabric services. Ensuring clarity on what we're building, for whom, and why.
Drive go-to-market readiness: coordinate with marketing, docs, support, and sales enablement to ensure new networking features land with customers effectively.
Articulate product strategy and roadmap to stakeholders across engineering, product, and leadership. We need someone to be the person who can explain what we're building and why without a 40-slide deck.
Build and maintain a structured view of the competitive landscape for cloud networking; know where we lead, where we lag, and where the market is going.
Establish lightweight but effective planning rituals. PRDs, feature specs, release coordination, without creating bureaucracy for its own sake.
Triage and prioritize inbound requests from across the org, balancing customer impact, strategic value, and engineering feasibility.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Experience as a product manager or technical product manager shipping infrastructure or networking products: cloud platforms, SDN, network appliances, or similar.
Solid understanding of data center and cloud networking concepts: EVPN-VXLAN, VRFs, routing, NAT, load balancing, firewalling. You don't need to configure a switch, but you should be able to read a config and follow the conversation.
Proven ability to write clear, structured product requirements that engineers actually want to work from.
Experience working closely with deeply technical engineering teams. e.g. knowing when to dig in and when to trust the experts.
Strong communication skills: able to translate between engineering depth and business outcomes without losing fidelity in either direction.
Comfortable operating in ambiguity: this is a greenfield PM function, and you'll be building the playbook as much as following it.
Bias toward action and shipping over process and ceremony.
