Description
Your creative field
We are looking for a full-time, permanent Senior Cloud Product Manager (all genders) to start as soon as possible. We live remote-first (within Germany), but you have the freedom to choose whether you want to work hybrid or completely on-site due to your proximity to one of our locations (Berlin, Cologne, Hamburg, Munich).
As a Senior Cloud Product Manager at Contabo, you're stepping into a role that doesn't come around often: you help build a new product from the ground up – a greenfield venture inside an established company, expanding our portfolio into a new market segment. You are the voice of the market and our customers: you establish feedback channels with customer and support teams, translate market and customer needs into a compelling product vision, and take end-to-end ownership of the product roadmap – from high-level planning through prioritisation to delivery, in close alignment with our PMO.
You work in a small, focused team of experts where speed matters: build fast, test fast, learn fast – with AI tools firmly embedded in our daily work, enabling the pace a venture like this demands. You refine ideas until the development teams can implement them with confidence, sequence roadmap items for maximum impact, and shape the best possible user experience together with your UX tandem partner. You don't shy away from technical discussions – you seek them out: you understand the product architecture across the full stack and keep asking "why" until even hidden blockers are on the table – and resolved quickly.
Because the product is new but the company isn't, you hook into existing processes – in finance and infrastructure, for example – and build new ones where gaps remain. You present progress and updates to stakeholders across development, sales, support, marketing, and leadership, acting as their central point of contact. In the medium term, you establish a product-driven roadmap spanning at least two years, along with KPIs that make the platform's success measurable. The role is built for a high degree of autonomy: you report directly to the Head of Product and work independently, driven by results – with no micromanagement, in either direction.
What convinces us
Your personality, paired with:
- Extensive senior-level experience in product management, ideally in a cloud or IT infrastructure environment
- Proven end-to-end ownership of a product roadmap – from strategy through to delivery, not just in a supporting role
- A solid technical understanding of cloud-native architecture (containers, Kubernetes, microservices, cloud infrastructure) – you can hold your own in discussions with developers
- Experience with data-driven prioritisation and A/B testing, as well as agile frameworks (Scrum or similar)
- Proven experience acting as the central point of contact between engineering, sales, support, and leadership
- Confident, natural use of AI tools in your daily work – from product ideation to everyday tasks
- A high degree of independence and composure in a greenfield environment full of ambiguity – you don't need a task list, you create it
- The ability to quickly build deep understanding of new domains, products, and technologies
- Experience with pricing and packaging (a plus)
- Professional fluency in English (our working language); German language skills, product management certifications (e.g. CSPO, Pragmatic Institute), and a degree in Business, Computer Science, or Engineering are a plus
