What you'll do

  • Talking to customers across the full spectrum. Indie developers running the CLI for the first time, startups wiring up a branch per pull request, platforms that provision environments on Supabase for millions of their own end users, and enterprise teams who need a documented route from development to staging to production. They ask for features. You find the need behind the ask, and those needs set the roadmap.
  • Making the pieces feel like one workflow. The CLI, migrations, seeds, configuration, branches, and Git integration have to land on developers as one path. You decide where one tool ends and the next begins, and the mental model is yours to defend.
  • Owning the outcome of each launch, and defining how it's measured before it ships. The metric, the threshold, and the read afterwards are yours: time to a developer's first migration, branch adoption, the share of teams shipping through a reviewed workflow. Shipping starts the measurement, and the read decides the next call.
  • Owning the problem statement and the commercial shape behind every bet. You capture the customer evidence, name the constraints (provisioning latency, compute capacity, cost per environment, how much production data an environment can hold), and set each target at how good it needs to be. Every environment costs compute, so you decide what remains of the free tier for developers and what a company pays for.
  • Deciding what gets built, what gets deferred, and what gets cut. Every quarter you're choosing between local development ergonomics, partner platforms that run their entire user base on the workflow, enterprise release requirements, and the infrastructure work that all of it runs on. You know the path's SLOs and what spending the error budget costs the roadmap. The priorities are yours to defend, and the written non-scope settles mid-flight asks.
  • Keeping engineering, design, and leadership aligned. Your roadmap runs through compute, storage, the CLI, the dashboard, and the GitHub integration. You write it down, surface dependencies before they become blockers, and keep decisions moving.

What they require

  • Have 7+ years of product management experience on developer tools, or you're an ex-founder with strong product instincts.
  • You've shipped developer-workflow products. You've owned at least one of local development tooling, migrations, CI/CD, ephemeral or preview environments, or Git-integrated deploys.
  • You understand the tradeoffs well enough to judge them: what belongs in a CLI vs. a dashboard, schema-only environments vs. environments with data, copy-on-write clones vs. dump-and-restore, why branching is cheap and merging stateful systems isn't, and how much of a workflow can live in a config file before developers stop reading it.
  • You're biased toward action. You break big bets into pieces that ship early, treat each release as a test of your assumptions, and deliver carefully enough that this quarter's launch doesn't become next quarter's support burden.
  • You build with what you own. You run the workflow yourself: a project running locally, migrations and seeds under version control, a branch opened off a pull request, and a promotion to production you'd trust on a Friday.
  • You use AI to move faster. You reach for AI tools to cut the slow parts and spend the time you save on judgment calls.
  • You work async by default. You make decisions in writing and move threads forward without meetings.
