Senior Product Manager (Kestra Cloud)

About Kestra:

[Kestra](http://www.kestra.io/) is the universal orchestration platform — open source, declarative, and designed to orchestrate everything: data pipelines, IT automation, business workflows, and AI / agentic systems.

Kestra is trusted by over 10,000 organizations worldwide , including large financial institutions, global data platforms, and industrial groups such as JPMorgan Chase , Bloomberg , FILA , and Crédit Agricole , to orchestrate mission-critical workloads at scale , where reliability, transparency, and control are non-negotiable.

Backed by leaders from Datadog, dbt Labs, Hugging Face, and Algolia , Kestra is deployed in demanding production environments across data, infrastructure, and operational systems.

The [open-source project](https://github.com/kestra-io/kestra) is the foundation of everything we do. With close to 30,000 GitHub stars , hundreds of contributors, and a fast-growing global community, Kestra is built in the open — shaped by real-world usage, not marketing narratives.

We believe orchestration should remove complexity, not add more layers. And that the best platforms are built collaboratively, transparently, and with a strong sense of product truth.

Context:

Kestra is entering a new phase with the public launch of Kestra Cloud.

The technical foundations are already in place: a production-grade orchestration engine, a mature Cloud infrastructure, and growing adoption from both open-source users and enterprise customers.

The next step is to shape Kestra Cloud into a clear, reliable, and economically sustainable self-serve product.

In this role, you will join as a Senior Product Manager with a strong ownership scope on Kestra Cloud. You will work closely with experienced engineers, infrastructure and DevOps teams, analytics, finance, marketing, and go-to-market stakeholders to align product direction and execution.

You will play a central role in structuring, prioritizing, and delivering the Cloud roadmap , helping transform existing technical capabilities into a product that is intuitive, scalable, and commercially sound.

What you will do:

• Define and maintain the Kestra Cloud roadmap
• Turn existing technical building blocks into a coherent, usable, self-serve Cloud product
• Ensure UX consistency across console, entitlements, feature access, pricing, and limits
• Help design and iterate on Cloud packaging, tiers, metrics, and pricing
• Contribute to the end-to-end Cloud lifecycle : trials, activation, conversion, reliability, and cost control
• Work closely with engineering, infrastructure, billing, analytics, and go-to-market teams to deliver and launch
• Make informed tradeoffs, balancing simplicity, flexibility, and long-term sustainability
• Contribute to measurable outcomes: adoption, activation, conversion, clarity, and reliability

What we’re looking for:

• 5+ years experience as a Product Manager on platform, infrastructure, or Cloud products
• Strong technical background, ideally with past experience as a software or infrastructure engineer
• Experience working on SaaS products , ideally self-serve or platform-oriented
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving, low-process environment
• Clear and rigorous communicator, especially in written product documentation and decisions
• Strong sense of ownership with a collaborative mindset
• Comfortable working with globally distributed teams across time zones
• Ability to take initiative and iterate quickly based on feedback

Bonus points:

• Experience in a B2B software or open-source company selling directly to customers
• Exposure to usage-based or hybrid pricing models
• Solid understanding of Cloud infrastructure (Kubernetes, Docker, managed services)
• Strong data and analytics mindset
• Familiarity with open-source ecosystems and developer communities

Before You Apply:

Let’s be transparent.

What we’re building at Kestra is ambitious and technically demanding.

Kestra Cloud sits at the intersection of open source, infrastructure, reliability, pricing, and go-to-market. It requires curiosity, judgment, and the ability to move forward without perfect answers.

This role may not be a fit if:

• You need heavy process or rigid structure to operate effectively
• You prefer narrowly scoped ownership with limited ambiguity
• You’re uncomfortable making decisions with incomplete information
• You’re looking for a fully mature “big company” environment

This role is a great fit if:

• You enjoy building and refining products from first principles
• You care deeply about clarity, simplicity, and developer experience
• You like working closely with engineers and business stakeholders
• You’re comfortable taking responsibility while collaborating as part of a team
• You want to contribute meaningfully to a product engineers depend on every day

What you get:

• The opportunity to work with a globally distributed, senior technical team
• Real ownership within a supportive and collaborative environment
• Direct exposure to product strategy and company priorities
• The freedom to build, experiment, and iterate
• A product used for mission-critical workloads , not demos
