Located in Paris, Amsterdam and Warsaw, Scaleway’s complete cloud ecosystem is used by 25,000+ businesses, including European startups, who choose Scaleway for its multi-AZ redundancy, smooth developer experience, carbon-neutral data centers and native tools for managing multi-cloud architectures. With fully managed offerings for bare metal, containerization and serverless architectures, Scaleway brings choice to the world of cloud computing, offering customers the ability to choose where their customer’s data resides, to choose what architecture works best for their business, and to choose a more responsible way to scale.

We want all our actions and decisions to bring us closer to achieving our vision: building and scaling technologies that make sense to us, to our customers and their end users. Scaleway is the challenger nobody’s expecting.As our business scales, the customers and developers we serve are increasingly diverse and global. Giving them an unbeatable experience is central to our business strategy and value proposition. To better understand them, we've discovered that the best way to deliver the highest value and performance is by incorporating a well-rounded team that leverages diverse perspectives,  knowledge, skills, and cross-cultural understanding. 

Our values 💜

Singularity: We do it our own way. 

Community: One company, one culture

Adventure: Level up if you dare, never stop innovating. 

Leadership: Be the leader you want to follow.

Excellence: We want to be customers' first choice as a cloud provider.

Rock Solid: You can always count on us! 

About the role

The PaaS (Platform As A Service) product team is built of PMs that pair with developers in order to think, build, deploy in production and maintain all the products from Scaleway's PaaS ecosystem. The products we build simplify our clients' lives by providing them a cloud service that is resilient and that automatically scales. As a consequence, our clients do not need to care and maintain their infrastructure and can focus on what adds value: building apps!

As of today, the PaaS ecosystem embeds different types of products, including Storage, Database, Serverless, Managed Kubernetes, IoT, and AI. Not to mention all the products that are not existing yet and deserve a Product Manager.

Reporting to a Lead PM PaaS, you will be responsible for handling our Managed Databases product suite that is composed of both relational and non-relational databases.

  • Partner with sales, marketing, and customer support teams to understand customer requirements, gather feedback, and address customer needs effectively.

    Support our marketing and sales team in the development of go-to-market strategies, including pricing, packaging, positioning, and messaging for the managed database products.
