Staff Product Manager (Developer tools)

We’re looking for a Staff Product Manager for Developer Platforms who doesn’t just ship features—but defines what should exist in the first place. This role owns the end-to-end experience for developers building on Workato: from first API call to production-scale agent systems. This is not a roadmap execution role. You will define the platform strategy, make hard tradeoffs, and build a product that developers choose in a competitive market.

Responsibilities

Define and champion the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for Workato's AI and LLM-focused developer products; Partner closely with engineering, design, marketing, and sales to deliver exceptional AI products and drive go-to-market success; Build deep insights into developer workflows, needs, and pain points through direct customer engagement, user research, and community feedback; Transform developer insights and business requirements into actionable PRDs, user stories, and technical specifications; Own the product backlog and feature prioritization, making data-driven decisions that balance immediate developer needs with long-term platform vision; Lead competitive intelligence and market analysis to identify emerging trends and ensure Workato stays ahead in AI developer tooling; Champion the product vision both internally and externally, engaging with developer communities, conferences, and key technical stakeholders; Establish and monitor key product metrics including developer satisfaction, API adoption, and platform engagement to drive continuous improvement; Drive developer adoption metrics and optimize onboarding experiences to reduce time-to-first-value

Requirements

7+ years in product management, including owning a developer-facing product or platform end-to-end —from defining the vision to shipping and iterating; Strong product instincts for developer platforms, with a clear point of view on what differentiates winning products (DX, capabilities, ecosystem, distribution); Experience driving adoption with external developers, including improving key stages of the funnel: discover → try → activate → scale; Hands-on experience building or managing APIs, SDKs, CLIs, or extensibility frameworks, with an understanding of how these impact real developer workflows; Demonstrated developer empathy, grounded in observing and improving real workflows (e.g., working with APIs, CI/CD, logs, IDEs); Comfortable going deep with engineering on system design and tradeoffs, including constraints, scalability, and abstraction decisions; Familiarity with modern AI/LLM or agent-based development workflows (e.g., orchestration, prompt iteration, evaluation, observability); Awareness of how developer workflows are evolving (AI copilots, APIs-first development, faster iteration cycles), with a perspective on where things are headed; You are a strategic thinker who can connect technology with business impact and craft a compelling product narrative; You have excellent leadership and communication skills, with the ability to influence and align cross-functional teams; You are comfortable with ambiguity and rapid iteration, thriving in fast-paced, innovative environments

Nice to have

Hands-on experience building or using LLM-powered applications and familiarity with AI frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar; Experience with integration, automation, or MLOps platforms; Active participation in developer communities through writing, speaking, or open-source contributions
