About the role
About Codesphere
Codesphere is a Virtual Cloud Provider from Germany building the future of sovereign cloud infrastructure. Our platform gives enterprises and governments full sovereignty without giving up modern cloud capability – a vision recently validated by a series of multi-million European government tenders.
Since our founding in Karlsruhe in 2020, we’ve expanded into an international team of 60+ experts. Based in Karlsruhe and Munich and backed by top-tier investors, we are chasing a bold vision.
We’re scaling fast and would love for you to join us and grow alongside us 🚀
About the role
As our Product Manager for Deployments (m/f/d), you'll own a foundational layer of that platform: core runtimes, deployment technology, networking, and observability. This is not a coordination role – it's a role for someone who takes ownership, challenges assumptions, and turns ambiguity into shipping.
What you'll drive
* You shape the strategy for our deployment and runtime technologies – grounded in market insight and deep customer discovery
* You lead the full product lifecycle: from PRD and user stories through to launch and iteration
* You work closely with Engineering, SRE, and Design to deliver high-quality, mission-critical features on time
* You act as the internal and external subject matter expert – supporting sales and marketing on go-to-market execution
* You track KPIs, run RCA loops, gather user feedback, and continuously push product-market fit forward
What makes you a great fit
* 3+ years in product management, ideally in SaaS, cloud, or developer tooling
* Deep understanding of cloud technologies – containers, Kubernetes, PaaS/IaaS, and developer workflows
* Proven track record of taking technical products from zero to launch
* Strong analytical mindset with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for different audiences
* Background in CS/Engineering or consulting is a plus
* German is preferred but not a hard requirement
* Based near Karlsruhe or Munich, comfortable with ~50% on-site presence
What's in it for you
* 32 days of paid time off – 30 regular vacation days plus Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve off
* Meal allowance – up to 15 digital vouchers per month, adding up to over €100 net for you
* Flexibility – hybrid work setup with mobile work options and flexibility around core hours
* Steep learning curve – fast-moving environment, real ownership, and a front-row seat to scaling a company
* Job-Rad – lease a bike through us, tax-free
* EGYM Wellpass & on-site gym – get access to thousands of sports and wellness facilities nationwide, plus our free in-house gym in Karlsruhe
* Employee events – from team offsites to regular get-togethers
* Company pension scheme – company-supported pension to set you up for later
* Great public transport links – both offices are within walking distance of tram and metro stops
