Job Description

About the Role

At CloudZero, our customers love what we've built, and we're just getting started!

We're looking for a Senior Product Manager who's passionate about discovery, data, and delivering meaningful value. In this role, you'll ensure that every product decision starts with a deep understanding of our users and results in solutions that are both viable and valuable.

You'll partner closely with design, engineering, and go-to-market teams to drive continuous learning, iterate fast, and build features that truly delight our customers.

What You'll Do
  • Partner with design and engineering leads to run continuous product discovery for small, cross-functional teams.
  • Own the success of everything your team ships - from quality and usability to business impact and customer outcomes.
  • Define clear, measurable outcomes and track results to ensure we're driving real customer and business value.
  • Use data-driven insights from customer feedback, usage patterns, and the market to influence roadmap decisions and prioritize effectively.
  • Present product strategy, roadmap updates, and feature proposals to internal and external senior leadership, building alignment around priorities.
  • Collaborate with Sales and Product Marketing to launch new features and communicate value effectively.
  • Develop a deep understanding of the customer experience, uncover product gaps, and generate ideas that improve satisfaction, retention, and growth.
  • Stay informed on market trends, competitors, and potential partnerships, using ROI analysis and build vs. buy frameworks to guide decisions.
  • Translate strategy into detailed requirements, prototypes, and user stories, ensuring clarity and alignment across teams.
  • Scope and prioritize work based on business impact and customer value.
  • Build trusted relationships across CloudZero - from leadership to engineering, design, and customer-facing teams.
What You'll Need
  • 5+ years of Product Management experience with SaaS products, ideally in a B2B environment.
  • A proven track record of collaborating cross-functionally and delivering impactful outcomes.
  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal - you're comfortable presenting ideas and building alignment at all levels.
  • A blend of technical fluency and a customer-first mindset, able to translate between business goals and technical requirements.
  • A self-starter who thrives in fast-moving environments and can think strategically while executing tactically.
  • Curiosity, adaptability, and the ability to turn ambiguity into clarity.

Please note: CloudZero is unable to sponsor employment visas. Candidates must have permanent authorization to work in the United States without the need for current or future sponsorship.
