Jobbeschreibung

About Codesphere

Codesphere is a Virtual Cloud Provider from Germany building the future of sovereign cloud infrastructure. Our platform gives enterprises and governments full sovereignty without giving up modern cloud capability – a vision recently validated by a series of multi-million European government tenders.

Since our founding in Karlsruhe in 2020, we’ve expanded into an international team of 60+ experts. Based in Karlsruhe and Munich and backed by top-tier investors, we are chasing a bold vision.

About the role

As our Product Manager for Deployments (m/f/d), you'll own a foundational layer of that platform: core runtimes, deployment technology, networking, and observability. This is not a coordination role – it's a role for someone who takes ownership, challenges assumptions, and turns ambiguity into shipping.

What you'll drive

• You shape the strategy for our deployment and runtime technologies – grounded in market insight and deep customer discovery
• You lead the full product lifecycle: from PRD and user stories through to launch and iteration
• You work closely with Engineering, SRE, and Design to deliver high-quality, mission-critical features on time
• You act as the internal and external subject matter expert – supporting sales and marketing on go-to-market execution
• You track KPIs, run RCA loops, gather user feedback, and continuously push product-market fit forward

What makes you a great fit

• 3+ years in product management, ideally in SaaS, cloud, or developer tooling
• Deep understanding of cloud technologies – containers, Kubernetes, PaaS/IaaS, and developer workflows
• Proven track record of taking technical products from zero to launch
• Strong analytical mindset with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for different audiences
• Background in CS/Engineering or consulting is a plus
• German is preferred but not a hard requirement
• Based near Karlsruhe or Munich, comfortable with ~50% on-site presence

What's in it for you

• 32 days of paid time off – 30 regular vacation days plus Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve off
• Meal allowance – up to 15 digital vouchers per month, adding up to over €100 net for you
• Flexibility – hybrid work setup with mobile work options and flexibility around core hours
• Steep learning curve – fast-moving environment, real ownership, and a front-row seat to scaling a company
• Job-Rad – lease a bike through us, tax-free
• Gym access – stay active on site (Karlsruhe office only)
• Employee events – from team offsites to regular get-togethers
• Company pension scheme – company-supported pension to set you up for later
• Great public transport links – both offices are within walking distance of tram and metro stops
