Job Description:

Originally conceived in Spotify, Backstage is now a leading SaaS and open-source platform for building developer portals. Adopted by thousands of companies, Backstage helps customers to restore order to their microservices and infrastructure and enables product teams to ship high-quality code quickly — without compromising autonomy. We seek a creative, passionate, experienced senior product manager to join Spotify's Backstage product area.

Our mission at Backstage is to unleash creativity and innovation for developers while creating delightful experiences. Over the last few years, Backstage has enabled thousands of organizations, including Fortune 100 companies, to shift and transform their engineering culture, creating a centralized software catalog, standards, and a single pane of glass for all developer needs with our offerings: open source, plugins, and SaaS products.

In this position, you’ll drive our SaaS product's core experience and growth, work in an agile startup environment, and help grow and scale the product.

What You'll Do

1. Work closely with cross-functional squads across engineering, design, data science, and user research to manage our core product experience.
2. Analyze opportunities using data insights, user research, and collaboration with the design team.
3. Develop a comprehensive strategy and vision for the product, aligning with overall business goals.
4. Lead the creation and execution of the product roadmap, ensuring alignment with strategic vision and customer needs.
5. Prioritize features and make data-driven decisions based on market research, user feedback, and performance metrics.
6. Communicate effectively with partners, including executives, cross-functional teams, and customers, to ensure alignment and buy-in.
7. Engage closely with customers to gather feedback, understand their needs, and incorporate their perspectives into product development.

Who You Are

1. You have significant experience building and shipping customer-facing software products with teams of designers, engineers, and data scientists.
2. You have 6+ years of experience in product management roles.
3. You have experience as a product manager of SaaS B2B and developer-facing products.
4. You deeply understand the developer journey and jobs to be done for developer or DevOps/Infra teams.
5. You have deep experience in making data-informed decisions (A/B testing, customer feedback, user testing, data analysis, market analysis, defining metrics).
6. You are excited about working in a fast-paced, innovative space and passionate about making developers' tasks delightful and efficient.
7. You’re a compelling storyteller who can communicate succinctly and inspiringly to diverse audiences.
8. You apply systems thinking and analytical expertise to develop product strategies.

Where You'll Be

• This role will be based out of our London or Stockholm office.
