Jobbeschreibung

Director Product Management Domains & SSL Products (m/f/d)

At IONOS, the leading European provider of cloud infrastructure, cloud services and hosting services, you will work together with a wide range of teams. We are characterized by open structures, a friendly working culture and flat hierarchies with a strong team spirit. We firmly believe that work and fun are compatible, and offer you the right environment for this. Our constant growth means that we are always looking for new colleagues. Become part of IONOS and grow with us.

We are seeking an entrepreneurial and strategic Director of Product Management to lead our core product lines: Domains, DNS, and SSL/TLS Products. This is not a purely technical feature-delivery role; it is a Commercial Product Leadership position of substantial scale. In this role, you will hold full P&L accountability for a multi-million-euro portfolio, drive international standardization across all IONOS Group brands, and lead an exceptional team of managers and product specialists. The successful candidate will seamlessly bridge deep web-infrastructure technical concepts with sophisticated commercial monetization models—directing everything from low-friction promotional "hook" pricing to enterprise-grade cloud automation.

Tasks

• Take complete accountability for the commercial performance, revenue growth, profitability, and budget planning of the group-wide Domain, DNS, and SSL business units.
• Maximize Customer Lifetime Value (LTV) and business margins by continuously optimizing product packaging, promotional pricing, and checkout conversion rates.
• Monitor and drive key commercial metrics, including Average Revenue Per User (ARPU), attachment rates (e.g., SSL and security add-ons at domain checkout), and registry/certification unit costs.
• Establish a unified commercial roadmap and standard product specifications across different IONOS brands, legal entities, and geographic regions.
• Navigate complex group structures and foster alignment among diverse regional business units, standarding core workflows (such as registrar platforms or billing systems) without slowing local market growth.
• Strategically manage a diverse, high-scale portfolio comprising:
  • Domains: Traditional and new top-level domains (ccTLDs, gTLDs, nTLDs), bulk registration platforms, and security features like Domain Guard.
  • DNS Services: Global Anycast DNS infrastructure, DNSSEC cryptographic security, and cloud integrations (Kubernetes, Terraform, REST APIs).
  • SSL/TLS Certificates: Free baseline wildcard certificates, paid commercial validation tiers (DV, OV, EV) in partnership with major Certificate Authorities, and the IONOS Cloud Certificate Manager using ACME automated renewal.
• Balance high-volume, loss-leader domain acquisition campaigns with high-margin downstream upsells (such as advanced DNS security, premium domains, or B2B enterprise certificate automation).
• Identify, negotiate, and manage high-value strategic partnerships with registries, Certificate Authorities, and technology providers to secure optimal pricing and robust integration paths.
• Co-develop impactful go-to-market (GTM) marketing campaigns and expand distribution channels to drive global product adoption.
• Lead, mentor, and inspire a cross-functional team of 12+ direct and allocated professionals, including 1–2 mid-level product managers.
• Coach and upskill team members to transition from operational feature-delivery mindsets into commercial, entrepreneurial business owners who understand P&L levers

Qualifications

• Deep Niche Domain & Security Expertise: Proven, hands-on product leadership experience in web infrastructure industries, specifically dealing with domain registration systems, Anycast DNS, SSL/TLS certificate lifecycles, and PKI (Public Key Infrastructure).
• Commercial & Business Acumen: A track record of owning and scaling a multi-million-euro P&L, demonstrating solid expertise in margin expansion, financial modeling, and conversion rate optimization (CRO).
• Senior Leadership Experience: Extensive background in leading and mentoring product teams, with a proven ability to manage and develop other product managers (manager-of-managers track record).
• Navigating Complex Structures: Outstanding stakeholder management and persuasion skills, with experience driving alignment and harmonization in multi-brand, international, or group-wide organizations.
• Technical Depth: Complete familiarity with core protocols and developer tooling (e.g., ACME protocol, Let's Encrypt, Terraform, Go SDK, REST APIs) as they apply to domain and security automation.
• Bilingual Capability: Full bilingual proficiency in both German and English (written and spoken) is required for seamless cross-group coordination and international partner negotiations.
• Flexible working hours through trust-based working hours.
• At some locations a subsidized canteen and various free drinks.
• Modern office space with very good transport connections.
• Various employee discounts for activities and products.
• Employee events such as summer and winter parties, as well as workshops.
• Numerous training and development opportunities.
• Various health offers, such as sports and health courses.
