What success looks like
  • Shipping net-new Fusion features on a predictable quarterly cadence
  • Measurable contribution to Fusion PLG growth metrics, including identification and monetization of local dbt deployments
  • Hands-on contributions to dbt Core and Fusion code bases, including merged PRs and meaningful improvements to the open source codebase
  • Strong execution and alignment across the Fusion engineering team

  • 5+ years of product management experience in technical domains such as developer tooling, data platforms, or open source software

  • Ability to bridge technical delivery with business impact, translating features into revenue and growth metrics
  • Experience working with engineering teams to define, prioritize, and ship complex technical features
  • Strong communication skills with empathy for open source contributors and enterprise users alike
Nice to have
  • Hands-on experience with dbt or similar transformation frameworks
  • Background in plugin architectures, extensibility systems, or platform ecosystems
