We are changing the way software is built with the low-code platform most preferred by developers and empowering organizations to rapidly create and deploy critical applications that transform their business. To support our growth and commitment to hiring exceptional performers, we are looking for a Principal Product Manager for Application Development.
This role has a clear focus on increasing developer productivity as well as simplifying the way enterprise applications are built. For that, you’ll need to clearly understand the way developers build applications today and clearly identify and work on opportunities to simplify, abstract, and automate the technology complexity, allowing developers to focus on the value to the business.
If you care deeply about creating a product that helps companies innovate, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re looking for candidates with solid product management, technical skills, and knowledge of low-code platforms, as well as business and strategic acumen.

- Deliver a world-class customer experience in partnership with user experience designers, product owners, architects, and engineering teams by defining the product initiatives, success metrics, and collaborating on solutions that build lasting relationships with our customers and users;
- Collaborate and facilitate with other areas of the organization – namely Sales, Customer Success, Support, Engineering, Product Design, and many others – to bring a “customer first” mindset to every customer interaction, not just within the product itself.
- Support Sales and Product Marketing efforts to create technology collateral, white papers, including competitive positioning and demand generation activities.
Desired Skills & Experience:
- 5+ years of field experience and responsibility in delivering low-code applications or working on other development automation tools/platforms
- Experience in designing and driving enterprise-scale B2B products, crafting vision and strategy, business case development, and roadmaps.
- Experience in Product Management in B2B scenarios is a plus.
