We optimize the inner development loop to keep developers in the flow, with development environments and tools like IDEs, source code management, repository management, project initialization, and CLIs.
Application Development:
We optimize application development by providing tools, frameworks, and libraries for specific personas and use cases (e.g., backend, frontend), including code authoring, build, test, and debug workflows, build systems, test frameworks, and more.
Continuous Integration & Delivery:
We ensure safe delivery of changes from commit to production with robust, seamless integration of changes, delivery workflows and pipelines, global deployment orchestration, safe delivery and rollbacks, and fleetwide change orchestration.
Reliability & Resiliency:
We ensure operational excellence and highly reliable, resilient, scalable systems with incident management and product readiness tools, testing frameworks, automation, reporting & insights, and product infrastructure experimentation (e.g., canaries, shadow traffic, performance testing, failure injection testing, chaos experiments, etc).
Observability:
We enable rapid issue detection and re *** tion with telemetry ingestion, storage, and querying of metrics, events, logs, and traces, monitoring and alerting, re *** tion, system health exploration and troubleshooting, and profiling and diagnostic tools.
Examples of opportunities that you and your PMs might tackle include unifying the developer experience, providing holistic end-to-end workflows, managing more for users through higher levels of abstraction, reducing toil, optimizing cycle times, defining how we measure developer experience and productivity, and ensuring we provide best-in-industry tooling. The scope and impact of these roles is significant. You and your PMs will be responsible for managing a portfolio of products and driving holistic product strategy and prioritization across them.
Product Management is a newer team within Platform Engineering, and we're on a mission to elevate product thinking across the organization. This unique opportunity allows you to shape our product management practices and contribute significantly to our evolution.
