Product Manager

What You will do

Drive Core Execution: Own the roadmap and feature execution for the core Nexus Repository, identifying and eliminating bottlenecks to ensure timely delivery.

Define & Measure Success: Establish mechanisms to accurately measure and inform your product's in-market performance, adoption, and future functionality.

Cross-Functional Leadership: Collaborate across Engineering, Design, Product Marketing, Support, and Sales Engineering to build, market, and support scalable solutions.

Cross-Team Collaboration: Partner with peer Product Managers for Platform, security, and AI governance features to ensure a cohesive end-to-end platform experience.

What You'll Bring

Technical & Software Development Background

Prior hands-on experience in software development or engineering (even brief/past experience, software projects, or coding background) is strongly preferred.

A clear, practical understanding of software development at scale, enterprise compliance, artifact repositories, and security controls within the SDLC.

Ownership & Drive: A proven track record of taking end-to-end ownership, navigating organizational roadblocks, and making a tangible impact.

Industry Context: Background and familiarity in Enterprise Software, SaaS, or highly regulated environments (e.g., Banking/Finance) is a strong plus, combined with an agile, flexible growth mindset.

Stakeholder Management: Experience working directly with Engineering Directors, Product Designers, and engineering teams.

Communication: Outstanding verbal and written communication skills in English (advanced/fluent proficiency is required).

Education: A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field is highly desirable.

What Makes You A Strong Fit

Former software developer who transitioned into Product Management, OR a PM with deep technical fluency who understands developer pain points, repositories, and SDLC security controls.

Corporate/Enterprise background (e.g., Banking/SaaS) to understand compliance and scale, but with a flexible, high-agency startup attitude (avoid rigid "corporate" mentalities).
