About the Role

Salesforce is seeking a Senior Director, Platform Product Management to build and lead a product team focused on developing and evangelizing new platform capabilities. This role involves defining product vision, setting priorities, and collaborating with engineering partners to shape scattered building blocks into a comprehensive platform. The ideal candidate will drive continuous discovery, translate user needs into a roadmap, and foster adoption through clear communication and strategic influence.

Responsibilities

Building the platform product function: Defining how the platform decides what to build, for whom, and in what order.
Standing up the intake funnel and required functions to generate clarity and awareness of what is being delivered and when.
Contributing to one platform roadmap: Consolidating initiatives spread across a dozen owners into a single, ruthlessly sequenced roadmap.
Making hard prioritization calls and defending them.
Going deep with engineering: Sitting with senior engineers across hosting/compute, CI/CD and developer tooling, the AI control plane, data and telemetry, and real-time ML.
Understanding the architecture well enough to challenge scope, unblock tradeoffs, and earn technical trust.
Killing duplication: Maintaining the single view of who is building what.
Merging overlapping efforts early.
Driving adoption, not just availability: Owning the “what’s in it for me” narrative and pushing partner teams to commit to real adoption milestones.
Running discovery: Interviewing platform use case owners continuously to keep the roadmap grounded in real demand, not assumptions.
Communicating with clarity: Translating deep technical work into crisp narratives for executives and giving engineering a clear, honest read on priorities and progress.
Mentoring PMs: Growing the platform product team as it scales; setting the bar for technical fluency and product craft.

Requirements

10+ years in product management, 4+ leading platform, infrastructure, or developer products.
Owned technical products where engineers are the primary customers.
Experience in developer productivity or tooling.
Hands-on technical depth across several of: cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred), hosting and compute (containers and serverless), CI/CD and developer workflow tooling, data and telemetry pipelines / event buses, observability, real-time ML, and the emerging AI stack (MCP servers, MCP registries, agent tooling, knowledge graphs).
Proven track record building prioritization frameworks and driving one roadmap across many stakeholders and competing agendas.
Experience getting teams to commit and migrate to internal or developer platforms.
Ability to hold a room with VPs and SVPs and make complex technical tradeoffs legible.
Comfort with ambiguity and influence without authority.
Former engineering experience: Written and shipped production code and can read an architecture diagram, a PR, or a design doc without a translator.
Bachelor’s in a technical field (CS or similar) or equivalent hands-on experience.
