Job description
Key details
- Own the Core Platform strategy and roadmap, defining and communicating product strategy in partnership with Engineering and Product leadership
- Prioritize foundational investments based on customer impact, enterprise needs, technical risk, and engineering effort, making trade-offs between near-term needs, technical debt, and long-term architecture explicit
- Lead product discovery for technically complex problems, engaging directly with enterprise customers and internal customer-facing teams
- Drive work on the scalability and reliability of n8n's execution engine, including worker pools and distributed execution
- Improve the reliability of triggers and execution behaviour across complex deployment setups, from multi-main Cloud environments to self-hosted enterprise installations
- Shape a more secure and flexible approach to executing code within n8n
- Drive the planning and release of major or breaking platform versions, including migration strategy, stakeholder communication, and risk management
- Establish clear success measures and keep the squad accountable for outcomes, not only delivery
- Act as the bridge between the Core team and the wider org: Product, Sales, Solutions Engineering, Customer Success, and Support, making platform trade-offs legible without oversimplifying them
- Treat internal product teams as customers of the platform, proactively mining their roadmaps for implicit platform requirements and turning cross-cutting needs into explicit Core Platform work before they become blockers
