About the job

About the Role

As the Product Manager for Developer Experience, you will own the end-to-end developer workflow in dbt Cloud: the Studio IDE, Developer Agent (our AI coding assistant), the Cloud CLI, and the dbt VS Code Extension. This role sits at the intersection of developer tooling and leading-edge AI, partnering closely with the Fusion team to ensure developer surfaces fully leverage Fusion's capabilities.

Responsibilities

  • Own the developer experience roadmap across Studio IDE, Developer Agent, Cloud CLI, and the VS Code Extension.
  • Partner with the Fusion team to surface Fusion-powered intelligence (SQL comprehension, compute, context) through developer-facing UX.
  • Lead AI-native product development for Developer Agent, including agentic workflows, context-aware suggestions, and natural language interactions.
  • Drive IDE and tooling strategy informed by modern development environments like VS Code and Cursor.
  • Define and execute cross-functional collaboration with engineering, design, and GTM teams.
  • Build feedback loops with the dbt community and enterprise customers.
  • Conduct market and user research on developer tooling and AI-assisted development.
  • Align developer experience investments to company goals and Fusion platform strategy.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of product management experience, with meaningful time on developer tools, IDEs, or technical platforms.
  • Direct experience managing IDE or developer environment products.
  • Demonstrated engagement with AI-powered development tools (Copilot, Cursor, Devin, etc.).
  • Strong technical foundation to work fluently with engineering partners.
  • Experience conducting user research and translating feedback into prioritized product work.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication.
  • Comfort working asynchronously as part of a distributed, remote team.

Nice to Have

  • Hands-on experience with dbt or similar SQL-first transformation frameworks.
  • Prior experience building or shipping AI agent features.
  • Familiarity with LSP, tree-sitter, or other IDE infrastructure primitives.
  • Experience with CLI tooling and developer workflow automation.
  • Background in open source software development.
  • Knowledge of modern data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, Redshift, etc.).

Compensation & Benefits

Oakland Pay Range: $243,936—$304,920 USD. Benefits include 100% employer-paid medical insurance, generous paid time off, RSU stock grants, professional development opportunities, monthly cell phone stipend, and access to a mental health support platform.
