In this role, you’ll partner with engineering and design to define how the largest teams manage feature delivery and shape our long-term strategy for software control. You’ll lead strategic planning, market and customer research, and collaborate across revenue, marketing, and technical teams to accelerate adoption and deepen platform usage.

We’d prefer this person to be based on the East Coast, but are open to remote US for the right candidate.

Responsibilities:

• Discovery: Lead in-depth discovery efforts with customers, market analysis, and competitive research to identify strategic product opportunities. Translate insights into actionable long-term product vision and roadmap.

• Project leadership: Define and lead the execution of complex product initiatives, balancing risk, technical feasibility, and business value. Ensure alignment across stakeholders and deliverables meet high-quality standards and timelines.

• Customer Relationships: Build and maintain deep customer relationships with our largest customers. Understand their needs and identify and remove obstacles to growth.

• GTM relationships: Partner with go-to-market teams, including sales, marketing, and customer success, to launch and promote new features. Provide clear product positioning, enablement, and support.

• Be a trusted partner and leader: Act as a senior liaison for key customers and internal stakeholders. Gather strategic feedback, align product direction with client needs, and provide expert guidance on solution adoption and use.

About You:

• Fluent in the developer tool landscape: You have a strong grasp of how modern engineering teams build, test, deploy, and operate software—and you stay curious about emerging tools, trends, and technologies that shape developer workflows.

• Customer-centric: You are driven to deeply understand customer challenges and needs, and craft solutions that both achieve business outcomes and provide real differentiating value.

• Product sense & passion for craft: You love great software, and can’t stand bad software. You have a strong focus on craft, quality, performance, and trust.

• Collaborative: You excel at partnering flexibly with diverse teams – refining problems, prioritizing, and shaping solutions with cross-functional partners.

• Excellent storyteller: You communicate complex ideas with clarity and empathy—whether in product briefs, customer narratives, or executive updates—to align teams and inspire action.

• High agency: You are motivated to achieve success and have a strong sense of ownership to deliver great outcomes across a broad range of responsibilities. If you see something that needs to be done, you make sure it happens.

• Business acumen: You have a proven track record tying technical solutions to business objectives, and can align projects to meet customer and company goals.

Qualifications:

• Technical insight: 5+ years building developer tools or infrastructure products. Experience translating complex technical requirements into product roadmaps and leading technical solution design discussions with engineering teams.

• Modern development expertise: Direct experience with CI/CD, feature flagging, microservices, or cloud-native architectures. Track record of identifying and capitalizing on emerging developer workflow trends (e.g., GitOps, platform engineering, observability).

• Self-directed learning: History of successfully ramping on new technical domains within 30-60 days. Examples of becoming the go-to expert for complex customer use cases or niche product areas.

• Project leadership: Led 5+ cross-functional initiatives involving engineering, sales, and customer success that delivered measurable outcomes on time.

• B2B SaaS product experience: 4+ years as a product manager at a B2B SaaS company, preferably developer tools or infrastructure.

• Revenue impact: Quantifiable examples of product decisions that drove ARR growth, reduced churn, or improved key usage metrics. Experience setting and achieving OKRs tied to business outcomes (e.g., "increased feature adoption by 40%" or "reduced time-to-value by 2 weeks").

About LaunchDarkly:

Modern software delivery was supposed to be the foundation for a thriving digital business but reality has proven otherwise. Slow, inefficient development cycles, costly outages, and fragmented customer experiences are preventing developers from building their best software. The LaunchDarkly platform helps developers innovate on new features faster while protecting them with a safety valve to instantly rewind when things go wrong. Developers can target product experiences to any customer segment and maximize the business impact of every feature. And by gradually rolling out new application components, they escape nightmare "big-bang" technology migrations.

The LaunchDarkly platform was built to guide engineers to the next frontier of DevOps by:

• Improving the velocity and stability of software releases, without the fear of end customer outages
• Delivering targeted experiences by easily personalizing features to customer cohorts
• Maximizing the business impact of every feature through the ability to experiment and optimize
• Coordinating the release and optimization of software to provide consistent experiences across mobile platforms and device types
• Improving the effectiveness and productivity of engineering teams, by providing insights into engineering cadence and stability
