What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Product Manager position at CloudZero?
About The Role
CloudZero is seeking a Senior Product Manager to own and evolve a core product area within our FinOps and cloud cost intelligence platform. This role is equally balanced between technical depth and customer focus, and is ideal for a PM who built credibility in another discipline - such as engineering, finance, DevOps, product marketing, sales engineering, or TAM - before moving into product management.
You will operate in an enterprise, direct sales environment, working closely with engineering, experience design, sales, marketing, and customer teams. Success in this role requires strong product judgment, technical fluency, and an exceptional ability to gather and synthesize market intelligence from both customers and non-customer potential users.

What You Bring
- 3–4 years of experience as a Product Manager building and scaling B2B SaaS products.
- Prior depth in a complementary discipline before product management, such as Engineering, Product Marketing, Sales Engineering, Technical Account Management (TAM), or Finance / DevOps / Cloud Operations.
- Experience owning products in data-intensive or technically complex domains, including analytics, AI/ML-enabled products, observability, cloud infrastructure, or platform tooling.
- Background working on UI-heavy products, such as dashboards, developer tools, IDEs, or visualization-rich applications.
- Full-stack product management experience across the customer lifecycle, including:
- Pre-sales: enterprise demos, customer conversations, roadmap discussions
- Post-sales: customer feedback loops, adoption, retention, and expansion
- Strong prioritization skills with the ability to clearly communicate rationale, tradeoffs, and customer impact.
- Ability to translate complex technical and financial concepts into intuitive, customer-facing experiences.
- Demonstrated ownership of a product area from problem discovery through delivery, with a track record of shipping meaningful outcomes.
- Experience in FinOps, cloud cost management, DevOps, or financial systems.
- Familiarity with modern cloud data stacks (e.g., AWS/GCP/Azure billing data, data warehouses, ETL/ELT pipelines).
- Experience partnering closely with platform or infrastructure engineering teams.
- Comfort analyzing product usage data and telemetry; ability to write basic SQL queries or work with DevOps / SRE tooling is a plus.
- Experience supporting enterprise or highly technical customers.
- Exposure to pricing, packaging, or value-metric decisions in a SaaS environment.
- Background in cloud-native, developer-focused, or infrastructure-oriented products.
