Key skills for this role
As a Product Manager, you will be responsible for empowering developers and designers to solve customer problems. You will work directly with our SVP Product Engineering Daniel.
You will:
Shape company and product strategy alongside our SVP of Product Engineering. It's a genuine partnership: you'll develop the vision for where Checkly goes next, decide where we play in the AI testing, monitoring, and observability landscape and where we don't, and turn that into a direction. You build the strategy with us, not execute someone else's.
Shape Checkly's point of view on reliability in an AI-native world: how teams monitor AI-generated code, agent-driven workflows, and LLM-backed features
Lead initiatives across Product Engineering, Sales and Marketing, and represent Checkly directly to customers and in developer communities.
Live in the product and the problem. Empathy for DevOps, SRE and Platform Engineering isn't a line item. It's the job.
You ship with AI where it helps and know when not to. You don't just talk about it.
You've built software before this. You're an ex-engineer, ex-founder, or ex-solutions engineer who has written real code and shipped real things, and now you want to own the product. This one's non-negotiable: you should be able to reason about APIs, MCPs, CLIs, and how systems fit together without a translator.
You've worked in a startup, not just a big company. You're comfortable with ambiguity, small teams, and owning outcomes end to end. You don't need a big-company machine around you to be effective.
You've built technical products, ideally developer tools. Adjacent technical products count. Experience in monitoring or observability is a nice-to-have, not a requirement.
New to the PM title? That's fine. If you're coming from a founding or solutions-engineering seat and want to go all-in on product, we want to hear from you.

More from this employer
You're technical enough to be dangerous with AI tooling. You can prototype in code, throw together a mock, or pressure-test technical viability yourself when it moves things forward.
FULLY remote role, within the UTC-3 to UTC+3 time zones. Need to be able to travel to (other) European countries without having to wait for a visa appointment.
We would rather tell you now than have you find out in month two.
We use AI for everything, and we mean everything. AI skepticism is not a thing here. If you have the slightest hesitation about working with AI every day, this is not the place for you, and that is completely fine.
We write more than we talk. We are async-first, so a lot of decisions happen in documents and threads, not meetings. If you do your best thinking out loud in a room full of people, you will miss it here.
We are lean, so you own the boring parts too. There is no PM ops layer to delegate the unglamorous work to. You will do strategy one hour and clean up a messy spec the next.
We ship constantly and change our minds. Priorities move as we learn from customers. If you need long, stable planning cycles, this will feel chaotic.
Customer signals come first, and most of the time they beat your gut. We build what customers actually want, not the clever thing we dreamed up. Earn it by making customers happy, and then there is room for the moonshots. If you want to lead with your own bold bets, you will find this frustrating.
Fair, competitive, and transparent pay is very important for us. Therefore we work with a standardized salary calculator that includes several factors such as seniority level as well as location.
For this role, the range is (depending on seniority and skills):
€83k - €120k for someone in a similar cost of market as UK, Germany etc, + stock options
€75k - €105k for someone in a similar cost of market as Spain, Poland, Ukraine etc, + stock options
If this sounds interesting, please apply! Studies by several different sources have shown that on average men will apply for a job if they meet 60% of the application requirements. Women, non-binary people and POC will seek to match a much higher percentage of requirements before applying. If you're not sure you're the right fit, apply anyway and let us know what you bring to the table. We'd love to hear from you!
We're all about being transparent and setting clear expectations. That's why we've put together our hiring playbook and open-sourced our employee handbook. There you'll find a sneak peek of who we are, how we work and what you can expect in our hiring process.
