Upbound is the company behind Crossplane, the open source project which started the control plane revolution in the cloud native community. Upbound helps companies rise above the clouds with our Crossplane powered Universal Cloud Platform. With Upbound you get universal real-time visibility into all of your infrastructure environments, the same API centric approach Kubernetes pioneered for managing infrastructure and policies, and self service infrastructure capabilities.

The Console Product Manager is an integral part of the Upbound Product organization’s efforts to build a world-class Cloud Native Platform. In this role you will help platform engineers, DevOps teams and developers consistently manage their cloud platforms built with Crossplane. This role is responsible for the console experience in Upbound. Our console is used to gain insight, ease debugging, provide observability, and is the front door to our global experience.

Success in this role will be driving our strategy and execution for extending Upbound into a world-class platform. This role is North America based, collaborating with a team based in the US, and requires working within GMT-5 to GMT-8.

In this role you will…

  • Own the roadmap for our console
  • Work with engineering teams to prioritize backlog, identify user gaps
  • Create low-fidelity mockups and work through end user features deeply
  • Work closely with Design to create holistic user journeys
  • Work with the broader Upbound product team to align roadmaps and plans.
  • Work closely with customer service to understand and respond to customer needs.

You are a good fit if you have…

  • Existing PM experience with SaaS UI based products
  • Know, have used, and care about Crossplane. Benig the front face for Crossplane’s commercial product requires deep knowledge of the underlying OSS project and problems it addresses.
  • Developer background - you can use our products and write code to try out new features
  • Very familiar with Kubernetes and the related ecosystem
  • Enterprise product management experience
  • 5+ years of Product Management experience
  • Public examples of code on GH/GL (of any quality, this role isn't shipping production code)
  • Constantly think ‘there has got to be a better way to do this’ about anything

It’s a plus if you have…

  • Have built CLI, API, and SDK products in the past
  • Demonstrated working knowledge of Crossplane
  • Experience creating diagrams and simple illustrations which enhance your content
  • Worked with open source communities and managed public roadmaps

While building amazing technology is important, Upbound has an intense commitment to building a great culture. With company values like Be Accountable, Demonstrate Craftsmanship, Champion the Customer, Collaborate Decisively, Care For Our Communities, Act as an Owner and Engage Vulnerability; you'll find yourself in a place where learning, growth, impact, and fun finally intersect. Similar to the open source community we serve, we look to each other to constantly iterate and improve on what we're building and you will be a key contributor in this effort.

We encourage people of all backgrounds, gender identities, ethnicities, ages, or any other descriptors that make you uniquely you, to apply with enthusiasm and confidence. Upbound is a place where you can be 100% comfortable being you.

View company profile

Upbound is the company behind open source Crossplane - the modern, cloud-native alternative to Infrastructure as Code. Crossplane was the first open source project to recognize Kubernetes for its control plane, and not as a container orchestrator, and has been leading the effort to democratize control plane technology in the cloud-native community. Our mission is to enable a new era of infrastructure management that is automated, efficient, reliable and empowers application teams to self-service any resource they need and deliver software faster.

We are building solutions that accelerate development velocity and innovation at global enterprises, with a control plane-centric approach. Upbound Universal Crossplane (UXP) enables platform teams to create their own opinionated platform declaratively without having to write any code and offer it to their developers as a self-service Kubernetes-style API.

Upbound’s product offerings are available via a subscription model that currently has two tiers. The first is a free tier catering to individuals getting started with control planes and who need tooling to debug and share their Crossplane providers and configurations. It includes full access to Universal Crossplane (UXP), the ability to publish public listings in Upbound Registry, and limited access to Upbound Cloud. Upbound’s enterprise tier unlocks additional value across the product portfolio. Platform teams can manage unlimited control planes in Upbound Cloud, create unlimited private listings in Upbound Registry, and get access to 24/7 support, prioritized bug fixes, implementation services, onboarding and training.

Any organization looking to simplify and accelerate cloud native operations and empower their developers, should try Upbound.

Upbound was founded in 2017 and is a remote-first company. The company is backed by GV (formerly Google Ventures) and Telstra Ventures.
