We can hire for this position in the United States and Canada

What You’ll Do:

  • You’ll own driving the work and outcomes in our telemetry space, including layering differentiating value on top of open standards, building a telemetry pipeline for more than just sampling, illuminating customer telemetry in our UI, as well as shepherding and maintaining our instrumentation SDKs, libraries, agents, probes, and Kubernetes operators.
  • You’ll foster our commitment to open standards, including participating in the broader OpenTelemetry community.
  • You’ll be responsible for identifying opportunities for getting events into Honeycomb as easily as possible and lowering barriers to entry for customers of all shapes and sizes.
  • You’ll collaborate closely with engineering and design in a triad-based working model.
  • You’ll understand the whole developer experience space at Honeycomb and how telemetry fits together with it and the wider organization.
  • You’ll build relationships and facilitate impactful technical conversations across the company, including partnering with Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success. Staying close to folks in the field is a high priority for this role. Troubleshooting and problem-solving on the fly is a key aspect for keeping prospects engaged.
  • You’ll naturally gravitate toward empathetically understanding users, what pains them and pleases them, and you’ll be relentless in advocating for their best interests in the product.
  • You’ll be taking directional guidance from key stakeholders and using it as the basis for chartering your own product discovery adventures.
  • You’ll contribute to a community of practice with your fellow Product Managers, fostering a culture of cohesion and knowledge-sharing.
  • You'll align field and product engineering behind your vision, increasing measurable customer outcomes, and being recognized as an SME for the organization.

About You:

  • You’re endlessly curious - a proactive problem solver. You seek data to inform your decision-making and allow that to inform how you prioritize work. You never stop asking questions and you seek answers from your customers, your colleagues and your own research.
  • You’re a thoughtful communicator and product leader. We see clear and regular communication (including a willingness to give and receive feedback) as a fundamental skill, not just a nice to have — and we hope you do too. This role sits at the intersection of several teams and our users, making communication especially important.
  • You are equally at home setting a vision and identifying small pieces of value that can be delivered iteratively and quickly. You enjoy shepherding product work through its entire lifecycle, from early prototype to GA.
  • You find ambiguity inspiring and are driven to navigate your way through it to a place of clarity. You value making space for learning before pushing toward a solution.
  • You’re comfortable and interested in technically complex spaces, whether it’s a background being a developer yourself, a history working on Open Source projects, or a history in technical SaaS products. A strong preference to have experience working in or as a user of tracing, metrics, monitoring, or analytics software.
  • You’re excited to build the next generation of tracing technology!
