What You’ll Do:

CoreWeave is the AI Hyperscaler™, and the Developer Experience (DevX) teams within the Common Services organization build and operate the internal platforms that help engineers ship high-quality software quickly and safely. DevX owns core delivery workflows, tooling, and “golden paths” across CI/CD, internal developer platforms, and shared services that power a unified, secure, and scalable developer experience across products and services.

About the role:

CoreWeave is seeking a Product Manager for Developer Experience to define and drive the roadmap for our internal developer platforms and delivery tooling. You will work closely with engineering leaders in Common Services (Dev X Delivery, Dev X IDP, Cloud Experience, Observability, Data Services) and partner orgs to understand where engineers are losing time, translate those pain points into clear problem statements, and deliver opinionated solutions that scale. Your focus will be on measurable improvements to developer productivity and software delivery outcomes, not feature checklists.

You will spend your time deeply embedded with engineering teams: mapping workflows from code to production, identifying friction, defining metrics, and collaborating on designs that make the “right way” the easy way. You’ll own prioritization across competing stakeholders, communicating tradeoffs and long‑term bets while still delivering incremental value along the way.

In this role, you will:

• Own the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for internal developer experience platforms (e.g., CI/CD, internal developer platform, delivery tooling, golden paths).
• Partner with the broader Product team on product prioritizations, broad product strategy, and shared goals.
• Partner with engineering leads in Common Services, IaaS, Security, and Customer Experience to identify and prioritize high‑value problems across the software delivery lifecycle.
• Run structured discovery with internal “customers” (engineers, managers, SREs, TPMs) to understand workflows, constraints, and recurring pain points.
• Define clear problem statements, success metrics, and hypotheses for DevX initiatives (e.g., lead time for change, deployment frequency, MTTR, onboarding time).
• Write concise, technically rigorous PRDs and collaborate on design docs that align DevX, platform, and security requirements.
• Manage and prioritize backlogs across multiple teams, balancing foundational platform investments with near‑term developer pain and compliance/operational needs.
• Partner with engineering to plan increments, sequence rollout, and ensure we ship changes that are observable, operable, and reversible.
• Drive adoption of DevX tooling through documentation, enablement sessions, and feedback loops; treat communication and change management as part of the product.
• Instrument and review usage analytics, satisfaction surveys, and delivery metrics to assess impact and guide iteration.
• Champion a “platform as a product” mindset: opinionated defaults, self‑service where possible, and strong API / UX contracts for internal customers.

Who You Are:

• 5+ years of experience in product management for developer platforms, internal tooling, infrastructure, or closely related technical products or equivalent experience as an engineering manager / tech lead / staff+ engineer working deeply with CI/CD, internal platforms, and developer productivity.
• Proven ability to translate ambiguous engineering pain into structured problem statements, requirements, and prioritized roadmaps.
• Demonstrated experience owning roadmaps for internal developer or platform products and delivering measurable improvements to developer workflows (e.g., reduced lead time, increased deployment frequency, improved onboarding time).
• Strong technical fluency with modern software delivery stacks (CI/CD pipelines, version control, artifact management, observability, configuration management, infrastructure‑as‑code).
• Experience working with and designing APIs and backend services (REST/gRPC), and an understanding of how developer interfaces (CLI, SDKs, IaC, consoles) fit together.
• Hands‑on experience collaborating with engineering teams that use Kubernetes or other orchestrators, microservices, and cloud‑native architectures.
• Comfort using data and metrics to prioritize work, make tradeoffs, and evaluate outcomes.
• Experience leading cross‑functional initiatives across multiple teams or orgs, including driving alignment, decision‑making, and follow‑through in a fast‑paced environment.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to communicate clearly with highly technical stakeholders and distill complex concepts into concise narratives.
