About the Role
Cloudflare's network protects over 20% of the Internet which translates to over trillions of requests per month. We're looking for a product manager who will help build the systems and processes that allow us to order, deploy, and manage capacity at scale to meet the needs of our rapidly increasing customer base.
The Performance PM will build systems and processes that will enable us to grow efficiently. You will transform Cloudflare's infrastructure ecosystem by developing a holistic view of end-to-end capacity management that integrates across multiple pivots such as finance, procurement, and operations. You will be working across multiple organizations to integrate all teams into a single consistent system that will increase our productivity and streamline operations to carry us forward as we scale to service more and more of the Internet.
As a member of a growing team of infrastructure product managers your responsibilities include:

  • Represent the customer, be it internal or external. Be the champion and voice of customers. Build intimate, personal customer relationships. Bring the customer's voice into the creation process.

  • Evangelize the vision so that all stakeholders are aligned, have context and understand where we are going.
  • Make data-driven roadmap decisions. Make tough tactical prioritization decisions based off of data you collect, curate, and disseminate. Build trust with stakeholders by ensuring that your roadmap is understandable and sensible based on the data you present.
  • Measure success. Own the measures used to define success for your product. Success measures must be defined at the inception of a product and tracked throughout its lifecycle. Make measures visible to all stakeholders and interpret them into actionable conclusions and new hypotheses.
  • Author use cases and prioritize requirements. Translate observations and customer feedback into a prioritized product backlog. Author use cases based on specific real-world product applications and extrapolate detailed product requirements for the scenarios.
  • Collaborate across teams. We win or lose as a team. Product managers play a critical role in creating alignment between engineering teams and stakeholders. A collaborative attitude is essential to the job.
