Job Description

Product Manager, Database

Weaviate

Role Description You thrive in technically complex domains and know how to earn the trust of engineers. You care as much about why customers need something as what they're asking for, and you'll push back when the ask doesn't match the underlying problem. You bring structure to ambiguity without creating bureaucracy, and you treat a clear roadmap as a forcing function for good decisions, not a planning ritual. You're a strong communicator, moving fluidly between customer discovery, cross-team coordination, and GTM partnership. You're aligned with our company values and bring a collaborative mindset and a bias toward shipping. Responsibilities - Own the Weaviate Database roadmap: prioritize across engineering teams, make tradeoffs explicit, and keep the plan grounded in customer reality. - Partner with Weaviate Cloud teams to ensure the database roadmap surfaces the capabilities they depend on. - Define success metrics for major features and track outcomes post-ship. - Drive product direction across schema, storage, filtering, replication, cluster topology, and migrations. - Translate customer and operational pain into clear requirements and sequence dependency-heavy work across releases. - Translate applied research outcomes for search quality, compression, and new retrieval modes into shippable features with clear use cases. - Ensure new capabilities are positioned around real customer problems, not just technical novelty. - Shape how developers integrate with and build on Weaviate with MCP, client SDKs, and future integrations. - Run ongoing discovery with developers and enterprise customers to reduce time-to-value and bring customer context into engineering. - Partner with GTM to ensure new capabilities ship with the positioning needed to land well. Qualifications - 5+ years of product management experience, with at least 2 years on a developer-facing or infrastructure product. - Proven ability to own a complex technical roadmap across multiple workstreams. - Strong written communication skills, both verbal and written. - Experience running customer discovery and translating qualitative signal into product decisions. - Comfortable working in distributed systems or data infrastructure domains. - Track record of cross-functional collaboration across engineering, design, and GTM. Nice-to-haves - Experience with databases, search infrastructure, or AI/ML developer tooling. - Familiarity with vector search, embeddings, or RAG workflows. - Experience at a developer tools or open source company. - Background working with enterprise customers alongside a self-serve or community motion. Benefits - 100% remote with flexible work hours. - Competitive compensation, including paid time off. - Budget available to spend on going to conferences, co-working space, home office equipment, etc. - Work with very experienced and fun team members. - An atmosphere that encourages learning and personal growth, and that gives you lots of freedom, flexibility, and responsibilities. - You will work at the forefront of search, ML/AI, and cloud-native technologies - and all of it is open source.

Role Description Altana's mission is to fix globalization. At the heart of that mission is a problem most enterprises know intimately but haven't been able to solve: the systems that define, source, build, and ship products don't talk to each other — and the cracks between them are where compliance breaks down, duties are miscalculated, and supply chain risk hides in plain sight. As Product Expert for PLM and ERP , you will be the domain authority who helps Altana build this future. You've lived inside these systems — implementing PLM platforms, configuring ERP workflows, tracing the broken handoffs between product engineering, procurement, manufacturing, and trade compliance. You know exactly where the seams fail. Now you're ready to stop patching them and build the solution. You will work at the intersection of deep enterprise systems expertise, product strategy, and modern AI tooling — translating what you know about how PLM, ERP, and trade systems actually interact into product experiences that make the complexity invisible and the compliance automatic. What You'll Do - Reimagine the Product Data Lifecycle - Own the product vision for how Altana's Product Passports serve as the connective tissue between PLM, ERP, and trade compliance systems. - Define how the as-designed, as-sourced, and as-built views of a bill of materials are reconciled and maintained over time. - Design workflows that allow enterprises to propagate product changes continuously across their commercial documents, classifications, and regulatory filings. - Close the Gap Between Product and Trade - Own the product vision for how structured product data flows from a SKU definition through a commercial invoice, advance ship notice, and customs entry. - Identify where manual, error-prone processes can be automated, validated, or eliminated entirely through a well-modeled product identity. - Build the case for prioritizing the integrations and automations that unlock the most compliance value. - Turn Systems Expertise into Product Requirements - Translate your firsthand experience with PLM implementations, ERP configurations, and the broken handoffs into concrete product features. - Define how Altana captures the product model in a way that supports trade compliance and reflects real-world manufacturing variance. - Serve as the internal authority on how enterprise product data is created, versioned, and consumed across the supply chain lifecycle. - Build Collaboratively with AI - Use AI tools to prototype workflows, generate explanations, and rapidly test ideas with customers and engineers. - Think creatively about where AI can eliminate friction at the PLM-ERP-trade interface. - Champion a culture of "show, don't tell" — use demos, mockups, and AI-assisted visualizations to align stakeholders. - Partner Across the Ecosystem - Engage directly with enterprise product engineers, trade compliance teams, procurement leaders, and ERP/PLM administrators. - Work with government-facing product teams to ensure the enterprise product data model complements CBP's enforcement tools. - Collaborate with engineering on API design and data schemas that connect PLM platforms, ERP systems, and logistics networks. Qualifications - 5+ years working with PLM and ERP systems in an enterprise manufacturing, sourcing, or trade compliance context. - Understanding of the full product-to-shipment data chain. - Systems thinker with knowledge of configurations and architecture. - Tech-enabled and AI-curious. - Strong communication skills. - Builder mentality, ready to own solutions. Preferred Qualifications - 5+ years of hands-on experience with PLM and/or ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, Teamcenter, Windchill, Arena, or equivalent). - Deep familiarity with bill of materials structures. - Working knowledge of how product data flows into commercial documents. - Experience with the PLM-ERP integration layer. - Familiarity with trade compliance data requirements. - Experience with data modeling, integration architecture, or enterprise system implementation is a strong plus. - Prior product management, business analysis, or enterprise technology strategy experience is a strong plus. Benefits - Flexible Time Off policy for work-life balance. - Industry-leading Paid Parental Leave. - Full suite of medical, vision, and dental benefits with generous employer contributions. - Life, short- and long-term disability, and AD&D insurance coverage at no cost. - 401(k) retirement savings program. - Commuter Benefits for public transit or parking. - Access to a free premium subscription to Calm for mental health support. - Pet Insurance options available. - Employee Assistance Program for confidential personal support. - Dependent Care FSA for childcare expenses.
