About the Role

The Company is seeking a visionary and results-driven Vice President of Product Management to lead the strategy for its core database services and offerings. The successful candidate will be responsible for defining and executing a clear, actionable product strategy that elevates the company's database services to meet the most rigorous enterprise demands for scale, performance, and operational excellence. This role requires an experienced product leader with profound technical fluency in database architecture, high-availability systems, and the open-source community, particularly PostgreSQL. The VP will also be tasked with integrating AI and vector capabilities into the database experience, driving the product roadmap, and fostering ecosystem and community leadership.

Candidates for this role at The Company should have a proven track record in product leadership for mission-critical database platforms, with a focus on OLTP and relational systems. Technical domain mastery in PostgreSQL and the broader open-source database ecosystem is essential, as is a strong understanding of how AI / ML, vector indexing, and GenAI tooling impact the database layer. The role demands a leader with an established network in the database and open-source software communities, and exceptional strategic communication skills to drive alignment and collaboration among cross-functional teams. The VP will also be responsible for inspiring and scaling teams, and must be adept at maintaining technical credibility while setting executive direction.
