About the Department
As a Product Manager at Cloudflare, you are responsible for building products that improve the way that the Internet works. We shape high-level product goals but also get our hands dirty. On an average day, you might pitch a concept to senior leadership, create a launch plan with marketing, work with designers to conduct user research, prototype a new feature, iterate on a spec, analyze usage data, or pair with an engineer on implementation. We have ultimate responsibility for understanding our client needs, influencing business strategy, feature specification, and working with engineering to develop our software.
About the Role
Cloudflare’s Dashboard plays a central role in helping Cloudflare 5x its revenue in the next 5 years. As the product leader of the Cloudflare Dashboard, you will measure and grow the engagement of customers and prospects with our products and with Cloudflare itself. Problems you may face:
- How can the dashboard provide individual product teams at Cloudflare with a powerful canvas to deliver world-class experiences? Can we maintain a tech stack and common design language that empowers teams to build great experiences rather than constrain them?
- Can we simultaneously educate customers about our products, convince them to pay, then onboard and upsell them to new offerings, as well as encourage them to onboard their colleagues and friends?
- Can we manage adjacent cost drivers like customer support and outbound sales? Can we be confident that moving the needle on these fronts is doing more good than harm?
As the Product Manager, Dashboard, you’ll partner with a committed set of engineering, design, and go-to-market teams as well as product teams from around the company to meet these challenges. At the same time, you’ll be expected to contribute to a high performance culture and citizenship at Cloudflare - sharing your knowledge and energy to accelerate the organization.
Key Competencies
We want to find someone who is curious, can learn quickly, think creatively, and work cross-functionally with engineering, design and other teams. A few key responsibilities:
- Product vision and strategy: Define and communicate the vision and strategic direction for the Cloudflare Dashboard, prioritizing investment in specific, high-leverage platform capabilities
- Roadmap prioritization: Develop and maintain a product roadmap that balances short-term dashboard improvements with projects that contribute to the long-term strategic vision
- Voice of the customer: Conduct qualitative user research through customer calls and surveys to understand the needs, workflows, and challenges of different Cloudflare Dashboard users. Additionally, gather feedback internally from various channels and customer-facing teams to develop insights on customer challenges and new product requirements
- Cross-functional partnership: Collaborate with engineering, product design, and context experience design to draft and review product requirement documents, design specs, and engineering specs. Also, partner with marketing, sales, customer support, business intelligence, and other cross-functional teams to ensure successful product launches, user adoption, and experiment analysis
- Data-informed decisions: Create dashboards to analyze user behavior and experiment results, and collaborate with the business intelligence team to analyze backend metrics impacted by new dashboard features
- First-class execution: Gets things done and has a track-record of driving excellence and impact
Bonus Points
- Understanding the modern UX stack with enough fidelity to hold your own with engineers will be highly beneficial. An engineering background would be helpful. An alternate source of credibility on this front might come from having developed a web property yourself.
- Data-fluency - there is no team of analysts at Cloudflare. Can you work directly with data yourself to build confidence in your views and can you use that same data to persuade others?
- At Cloudflare it’s pretty helpful to understand how the Internet really works at layers 2 through 7. If you don’t have this, be prepared to speak with mastery about another realm of similar complexity.
