[Remote] Staff Product Manager (vMetal)

🌍 Remote · United States 💼 Full-time

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. vCluster Labs builds infrastructure platforms for AI Cloud providers and hyperscalers. The Staff Product Manager for vMetal will shape the product for discovering, provisioning, configuring, and managing bare-metal hardware, with a focus on infrastructure direction, networking, validation, customer insights, and market positioning.

Responsibilities

  • Infrastructure Direction: Align on business priorities and technical direction for vMetal across compute and networking, and translate that into specs engineering can execute against
  • Networking: Own vMetal’s networking layer. Define how vMetal provisions and isolates tenant networks across InfiniBand and high-speed Ethernet fabrics, from tenant VPCs to rail-optimized GPU fabrics, and how it works with fabric controllers and NVIDIA’s networking tools
  • Product Leadership Partnership: Work directly with the Head of Product and engineering leadership to shape the direction of vMetal
  • Hands-on Validation: Run alpha and beta builds yourself, including against real bare metal hardware and network fabrics where possible. Catch integration issues before customers do
  • Customer Intelligence: Engage directly with platform and network engineers at AI Cloud operators and hyperscalers running bare metal at scale, and turn what breaks in their environments into product behavior
  • Market Positioning: Track the bare metal, GPU infrastructure, and data center networking ecosystem. Sharpen the narrative for technical buyers and bridge engineering, sales, and marketing so what we ship matches how we sell and support it

Skills

  • 5+ years experience in cloud infrastructure, data center networking, bare metal, or GPU/HPC platforms
  • You understand InfiniBand, VLAN, VXLAN and EVPN, and BGP, and the NVIDIA networking stack (Spectrum and Quantum switches, UFM, Cumulus Linux, NVUE), well enough to make informed product tradeoffs
  • You understand bare metal provisioning, out-of-band server management (Redfish, IPMI), and PXE boot well enough to make informed product tradeoffs
  • You've sat across from platform engineers, network engineers, and architects, and you're comfortable in that conversation
  • Familiarity with fabrics tuned for GPU training or inference workloads, such as RoCEv2, rail-optimized topologies, or Spectrum-X
  • Built a KaaS offering at a cloud provider, vendor, or large internal platform team
  • Adaptable to startup pace and change

Benefits

  • Equity
  • Bonus
  • Health, dental, vision, and life insurance, including plans for you and eligible dependents (benefits vary depending on country).
  • Flexible working schedule; results matter more than clocking in and out at the same time every day.
