Full Job Description
We9re looking for a Senior Product Manager to partner with the Developer Productivity engineering team on the systems that make every Webflow engineer faster, more confident, and more effective. This team owns the developer experience end-to-end: CI/CD, build systems, internal tooling, developer environments, observability, and the feedback loops that tie it all together. The work is foundational - the kind of platform investment that compounds quietly and shows up in every team9s velocity. You9ll be the person who keeps it moving.

This is also an explicitly AI-native role. You9ll be expected to embed AI into how this team works and builds - and help the broader engineering organization do the same.

  • Location: Remote-first (United States; BC & ON, Canada)
  • Full-time
  • Permanent
  • Exempt
  • The cash compensation for this role is tailored to align with the cost of labor in different geographic markets. We9ve structured the base pay ranges for this role into zones for our geographic markets, and the specific base pay within the range will be determined by the candidate9s geographic location, job-related experience, knowledge, qualifications, and skills.

As a Senior PM, Developer Productivity, you9ll...
  • Translate engineering team needs and pain points into a clear, prioritized roadmap, working closely with your engineering counterparts to keep the team focused on the highest-impact work.
  • Track and report on the metrics that reflect developer experience health. You9ll use data and qualitative insights to surface bottlenecks, measure progress, and make the case for what the team should work on next.
  • Partner with engineers, TPMs, and cross-functional stakeholders to scope and deliver platform improvements that reduce friction across CI/CD, build systems, developer environments, and observability.
  • Write crisp specs and requirements that give engineers what they need to move fast - clear problem framing, explicit success criteria, and well-defined tradeoffs.
  • Evaluate and champion the integration of AI and agentic tooling into developer workflows. You9ll assess what actually creates leverage versus what9s noise, and help the team build a point of view on where these tools belong.
  • Communicate platform health, progress, and tradeoffs to engineering leadership and cross-functional partners with consistency and clarity.
  • Keep feedback loops tight - between engineers using the platform and the team building it.
About you:

Requirements:
  • BA/BS degree or equivalent experience

You9ll thrive in this role if you:
  • Have 3+ years of product management experience, with at least one of the following: a hands-on engineering background (you9ve shipped production code) or direct PM ownership of a developer experience, developer productivity, or platform/infrastructure product.
  • Can read code, engage substantively with a technical architecture doc, and hold your own in a room full of engineers - not just translate between them and stakeholders.
  • Have direct familiarity with developer tooling: CI/CD systems, build pipelines, observability platforms, local dev environments. You9ve either used these tools or managed a team that builds them.
  • Are fluent in developer productivity metrics - you know what DORA measures, why cycle time matters as a leading indicator, and how to tell signal from noise in platform health data.
  • Have hands-on experience with AI and agentic systems - you understand how LLM-based tools fit into developer workflows, where they break down, and how to evaluate them with rigor rather than hype.
  • Execute with speed and precision. You thrive in a high-velocity environment, manage ambiguity without stalling, and make calls without waiting for perfect information.
  • Are resilient and self-directed. Platform work has long feedback loops and low external visibility - you stay motivated by compounding impact, not spotlight.
  • Communicate clearly in writing - you can make technical tradeoffs legible to non-technical stakeholders without losing the nuance.
  • Stay curious and actively build fluency in emerging AI technologies to accelerate your own work and your team9s.
Our Core Behaviors:
  • Build lasting customer trust. We build trust by taking action that puts customer trust first.
  • Win together. We play to win, and we win as one team. Success at Webflow isn9t a solo act.
  • Reinvent ourselves. We don9t just improve what exists, we imagine what9s possible.
  • Deliver with speed, quality, and craft. We move fast because the moment demands it, and we do so without lowering the bar.
Benefits
  • Ownership in what you help build. Every permanent Webflower receives equity (RSUs) in our growing, privately held company.
  • Health coverage that actually covers you. Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans for full-time employees and their dependents, with Webflow covering most premiums.
  • Support for every stage of family life. 12 weeks of paid parental leave for all parents and 6+ weeks of additional paid leave for birthing parents. Plus inclusive care for family planning, menopause, and midlife transitions.
  • Time off that9s actually off. Flexible vacation, paid holidays, and a sabbatical program to help you recharge and come back inspired.
  • Wellness for the whole you. Access to mental health resources, therapy and coaching.
  • Invest in your future. A 401(k) with 100% employer match (up to $6,000/year) in the U.S., and support for retirement savings globally.
  • Monthly stipends that flex with your life. Localized support for work and wellness expenses - from Wi-Fi to workouts.
  • Bonus for building together. All full-time, permanent, non-commission employees are eligible for our annual WIN bonus program.

Temporary employees may be eligible for paid holiday and time off, statutory leaves of absence, and company-sponsored medical benefits depending on their Fixed Term Contract and their country/state of employment.
Remote, together
