Responsibilities
- Define the vision, strategy, and multi-year roadmap for developer tools, balancing the needs of individual developers, data experts, application teams, and enterprise customers
- Own product strategy for experiences that span desktop, browser, Atlas, and self-managed deployments, creating a coherent journey rather than a collection of disconnected tools

- Help shape the next generation of AI-assisted and agentic workflows, including natural-language interactions, intelligent guidance, and transparent actions that keep developers in control
- Lead customer discovery with developers, architects, data professionals, and enterprise teams; turn qualitative and quantitative insights into clear product decisions
- Partner deeply with engineering and design to frame problems, define requirements, make tradeoffs, and deliver high-quality products from discovery through launch and iteration
- Build alignment across teams that contribute to the developer experience, including database, Atlas, AI, client libraries, documentation, developer relations, and go-to-market organizations
- Establish outcome-oriented goals and operating metrics, using product analytics, customer feedback, research, and market signals to evaluate progress and adjust priorities
- Drive adoption and effective use of new capabilities through thoughtful onboarding, education, packaging, positioning, and field enablement
- Communicate product direction and decisions clearly to senior leaders and cross-functional stakeholders, including the rationale behind what we will and will not do
- Raise the bar for product management by mentoring other PMs, improving product practices, and modeling strong judgment, customer empathy, and execution
Qualifications

- A track record of defining strategy and delivering products used by technical audiences, ideally across developer tools, databases, cloud platforms, data infrastructure, IDEs, or analytics
- Strong technical fluency in software development workflows and database concepts such as querying, schema design, data modeling, performance, and observability
- Experience translating ambiguous customer and business problems into focused strategies, product narratives, roadmaps, and prioritized execution plans
- Demonstrated ability to lead through influence across multiple engineering and product teams without relying on formal authority
- Excellent customer instincts and the ability to move comfortably between user research, product details, business strategy, and executive communication
- Experience launching products that require behavior change, ecosystem coordination, or adoption across both self-serve and enterprise customers
- Comfort working with AI-enabled product experiences and evaluating where automation, guidance, and human control create the most value
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to make complex technical concepts clear and compelling
