Full Job Description
We are hiring our first Product Manager to help shape how agents connect to the outside world. Many of Nango's most important product interfaces are technical: APIs, SDKs, configuration, and runtime behavior.

You will work directly with the founders, particularly our co-founder and Chief Product Officer. You will own established and experimental product areas, working closely with customers, engineers, design, marketing, and sales from discovery through launch.

This is a central role at the forefront of AI and agent infrastructure. It is an unusual opportunity to learn how a technical product with strong market pull is built and scaled.

What You'll Do
  • Own product areas from discovery through launch and iteration.
  • Talk to customers and turn insights into clear product direction.
  • Research the agent ecosystem, emerging trends, and competitors.
  • Identify and develop new product opportunities from zero to one.
  • Partner with engineering and design to ship quickly.
  • Define success metrics and evaluate what we build.
  • Make clear prioritization decisions with incomplete information.
  • Coordinate launches with marketing and sales.
  • Contribute to Nango's broader product strategy and roadmap.
Who You Are
  • You have a programming background through education or professional experience.
  • You understand developers and have built products for technical users.
  • You are comfortable reasoning about APIs, SDKs, and software architecture.
  • You have taken products or features from an idea to real usage.
  • You talk to customers regularly and let evidence shape your decisions.
  • You combine strong product judgment with a bias toward action.
  • You communicate clearly across engineering, design, and GTM.
  • You move quickly and create structure without waiting for perfect information.
  • Bonus: you have worked on developer tools, infrastructure, or AI products.
  • Bonus: you understand product-led growth, pricing, or packaging.
  • Bonus: you want to found a company one day.
Location

This is an in-person role in San Francisco.
