Lead, Product Manager, API Experience

We are looking for an outstanding technical Lead Product Manager with deep experience working with DevSecOps products and technologies, and designing API experiences. In this role, you will engage with high-profile customers as they operationalize MongoDB Atlas within their environments. You will drive solutions to enable customer flywheels, and build prescriptive guidance on how to leverage programmatic automation to effectively scale Atlas usage. You will lead teams to enhance our API experiences and programmatic tools, which are critical interfaces to MongoDB Atlas that help customers bring applications to life.

This position requires a driven self-starter who can work easily across teams, is passionate about helping customers succeed, and enjoys working in a dynamic, fast-paced, and challenging environment.

This role can be based out of our NYC headquarters, office hub locations, or remotely in the United States and Canada (strong preference for NYC).

The Team

We are a highly collaborative team of Product Managers, Engineers, Designers, Product Analysts, and Product Marketers, all working together to make the experience of working with data easy and enjoyable for developers.

We are a distributed team stretching from our offices in Dublin, Barcelona, NYC, and Bay Area to other locations worldwide. Every now and then, we all meet at one of our offices for project kickoffs, workshops, and other team events.

Requirements
