• Help our product designers build beautiful, intuitive data product experiences.
• Own execution and delivery of new product features end-to-end.
• Measure adoption of the product, run experiments, collect customer feedback regularly, and adjust plans as needed. Use data to support your decisions.
• Work with go-to-market teams on messaging, positioning, and launch activities.
• Help support customer engagements and participate in sales enablement activities within the company.
• Serve as the connective tissue between engineering, design, marketing, customer care, and other stakeholders, proactively communicating product questions and decisions.

Requirements:

• 5+ years of proven track record in product management, with at least 3+ years of experience on SaaS products.
• Strong understanding of cloud-native infrastructure architectures. Experience with databases or other technical products with high scale, high performance needs.
• Excellent written and verbal communication and the ability to explain complex technical design in 20 seconds or 20 minutes, depending on the audience and goals.
• Ability to combine data-driven approaches with strong user empathy to figure out what/when/why to ship – we’re building a platform for millions of users, and there is lots to do!
• Excited by ambiguous and vague problem definitions and the ability to refine them into an actionable plan.
• Strong sense of ownership and problem-solving skills – Timescale is moving fast, and so should you. Trying things, making mistakes, and quickly improving are in our DNA.
• Comfortable engaging and working in the open with developer communities.
• Computer Science or technical degree preferred, or prior technical development experience.
