Full Job Description
The Opportunity

We're looking for a Senior Product Manager to lead product development for Coda's database and calculation platform team.

Coda is where teams build living documents that replace scattered spreadsheets, project trackers, and internal tools with a single, flexible surface.

At the heart of this experience is a powerful database architecture and formula engine - the system that lets users wire together tables, buttons, automations, and views into applications uniquely tailored to how they work.

This is an opportunity to own the core platform that empowers users with the superpower of developers, all from an approachable document surface.

In this role, you will:
  • Define and drive the product strategy and roadmap for Coda's database and calculation platform
  • Shape new product experiences for large-scale databases, including integration with new products
  • Own Coda's powerful formula language and calculation engine
  • Guide performance investments across the product
  • Partner with customers pushing Coda's capabilities to the extreme, to uncover and shape new opportunities
  • Design experiences that make Coda's most powerful capabilities approachable to a wide audience
  • Make decisions that balance user needs with technical constraints
  • Partner closely with a stellar engineering team


Qualifications
  • Has at least 5 years of product management experience, ideally including database, calculation, or performance work.
  • Technical depth: Can learn and deeply understand technical systems to anticipate and guide the implications of technical decisions on product behaviors.
  • Reasoning: Define principles to balance flexibility with constraints that ensure a consistent and performant experience.
  • Product sense: You're confident in making tough product decisions in a crunch. You seek feedback from others and manage stakeholders at all levels to get to the best outcome quickly. You're able to weigh and communicate trade-offs and identify risks, without getting stuck in analysis paralysis.
  • Has a demonstrated ability to work independently with minimal guidance, proactively manages tasks and priorities across multiple projects, analyzes and executes work efficiently, collaborates effectively with cross-functional teams, and thrives in fast-paced, results-driven environments.
  • Based in Seattle or San Francisco with occasional travel for team off-sites and collaboration.
