Staff Product Manager, CI/CD & Developer Productivity

At Render, we’re building the modern cloud platform for developers creating AI-native, full-stack, multi-service applications. Our mission is to eliminate the tradeoff between the power of hyperscalers and the simplicity of developer-friendly platforms—so teams can ship fast, scale reliably, and focus on their product, not infrastructure. Unlike complex hyperscalers or ephemeral edge/serverless solutions, Render offers a developer-first experience with persistent compute, dynamic autoscaling, built-in orchestration, and observability, allowing teams to launch, scale, and manage real-world applications without writing infrastructure code or managing servers. Whether you're building LLM-powered applications, scalable SaaS products, or async processing pipelines, Render empowers teams to move fast and scale confidently from MVP to millions of users. Our platform is trusted by over 7 million developers worldwide and continues to grow rapidly. In February 2026, we raised an additional $100M in Series C financing, bringing our total funding to $260M, to accelerate our vision of making cloud infrastructure both powerful and intuitive—designed for the speed of modern AI development. We’re a diverse and talented team that values craft, velocity, and user experience. If you’re excited to help shape the future of the intelligent cloud and empower developers everywhere, we’d love to hear from you. APPLYING TO RENDER We're seeking candidates who possess high integrity, humility, and an insatiable drive to learn. Through reasoned discussions and continuous feedback, we strive to improve both individually and collectively. We foster an environment of mutual trust and respect, empowering effective debate to achieve the best outcomes for our customers and team. We especially encourage members of underrepresented groups in the tech community to apply and understand that not all successful candidates will meet each requirement listed. Our interview process is unique to each role, and we value the candidate experience just as much as our customer experience. We hope your conversations with us reflect a thoughtful process that is illuminative, enjoyable, and respectful of your time. ABOUT THE ROLE You'll own the path from commit to running production software on Render: the build system, the deploy experience, and the primitives that make delivery composable, including reusable build artifacts, multi-service deployment, deployment pipelines, and infrastructure as code. In practice, you own the part of our customers' SDLC that Render is responsible for, and the developer productivity outcomes that come with it. This is a high-leverage area. The simplicity of the build and deploy experience is one of the main reasons developers choose Render, and it's also where our fastest-growing customers feel the most pain as they scale. Slow builds, redundant rebuilds, and hard-to-diagnose failures show up directly in developer engagement and in retention. The loop is also changing shape: more of the code arriving on Render isn't written by a human, which changes what a deploy is, who is waiting on it, and what has to be true before it goes out. You'll work with a dedicated engineering team and partner closely with infrastructure, design, customer success, and go-to-market. Your customers span the full spectrum: solo developers deploying their first service, fast-growing startups shipping daily, and platform teams running hundreds of services across growing engineering orgs. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Shape build and deploy experiences that feel simple from hundred-line prototypes to architectures with hundreds of services, and work seamlessly whether the thing shipping code is a person or an AI agent. - Own the build and deploy system end to end. Set the roadmap and own the outcomes: build and deploy speed, deploy success rate, and time to diagnose a failure. - Define and ship foundational primitives such as reusable build artifacts and application-level deployment, rat
