Job summary

CloudLinux is hiring a Product Owner for a fully remote, senior squad that moves ideas from discovery to MVPs and then hands proven products to a product line. You will own the pipeline of ideas, drive scoping and prioritisation, and coach engineers while still building prototypes and reviewing code.

You don't need to be an expert in hosting or security; if you have shipped a product from nothing to paying customers, we will teach you the market and guide your growth in a fast-paced,

Qualifications

• 5+ years as a software engineer, with 2+ years leading a small team (team lead, tech lead with people responsibility, founder or engineering manager) building new products in a product company or startup.
• A track record of taking at least one product from concept to first paying customers, and of stopping one that did not work.
• Strong Linux proficiency at a software engineer level; comfortable building and reviewing code in a modern language (Python, Go, TypeScript) and debugging live systems on the box.
• Practical product discovery skills: customer interviews, assumption mapping, pricing experiments, and reading usage and conversion data yourself rather than via reports.
• Experience mastering a complex technical domain quickly and making credible architectural decisions in it.
• Demonstrated people leadership: 1:1s, performance conversations, hiring, and growing engineers.
• Experience working in an agentic / AI-assisted development workflow.
• Professional proficiency in English, written and spoken.
• Availability to work EU hours.

Responsibilities

• Run the pipeline of product concepts: capture, size and rank ideas with their assumptions written down, and keep the backlog of bets visible to the CPO and leadership.
• Take each funded concept to a working MVP on a fixed timebox, typically one quarter, with a named customer or design partner testing it.
• Define success criteria up front and report against them with real numbers rather than adjectives: usage, conversion, willingness to pay, support load.
• Make the go / no-go call honestly: hand proven products to a product line with a written runbook and roadmap, and capture what was learned from concepts that did not prove out.
• Report status and risk to the CPO weekly; every item carries an owner and a due date.
• Choose the fastest credible build for each concept - buy, borrow, open source or write - with the trade-offs made explicit.
• Build prototypes and demo stands yourself where that is the quickest route to evidence; review designs and code on everything the team ships.
• Keep MVPs production-worthy enough to run on real customer servers: packaging, safe rollout, rollback and observability from the first release.
• Work with the architecture group and the product teams so a successful MVP can be adopted without a rewrite.
• Lead a small distributed team: 1:1s, goal setting, performance reviews, and career development.
• Hire: define the profile, run technical interviews, onboard, and mentor engineers.
• Set the working agreements that make fast async work possible - written decisions, public-by-default communication, demos over status meetings.
