Location Our Principal Technical Product Owner - DoiT Partner Platform will be an integral part of our Product Management team. This role is based remotely in the East US, Canada, the UK or Ireland. Who We Are DoiT is a global technology company that works with cloud-driven organizations to leverage the cloud to drive business growth and innovation. We combine data, technology, and human expertise to ensure our customers operate in a well-architected and scalable state - from planning to production. Delivering DoiT Cloud Intelligence, the only solution that integrates advanced technology with human intelligence, we help our customers solve complex multicloud problems and drive efficiency.

The Opportunity We’re hiring a Principal Technical Product Owner to drive the strategy, rapid delivery, and iteration for the DoiT Partner Platform. This platform enables cloud partners, resellers, and service providers to operate, monetize, and scale their cloud businesses across major hyperscalers. The platform is designed to help partners manage the operational and financial complexity of the cloud ecosystem, including cloud billing, margin management, customer lifecycle workflows, and partner-led service delivery.

You will act as the tip of the spear for all DoiT Partner Platform initiatives, serving as a leader amongst the product team to guide the broader product vision and set the standard for execution. You will bring relentless curiosity about how the cloud ecosystem works, a deep understanding of hyperscaler partner programs, and the confidence to test ideas directly with domain experts. The right leader will have held hands-on roles within the cloud ecosystem—such as cloud operations, cloud billing / FinOps, or partner operations—and will bring direct experience working with channel business models. In addition to hands-on execution, you will help direct strategy, align cross-functional teams, and mentor other technical product owners across the organization.

Engineering-Embedded Technical Product Ownership • Operate as a core leader working closely with Engineering leaders—present in daily collaboration, crisp in decision-making, and pragmatic about constraints., • Partner with Engineering leads on sequencing, technical tradeoffs, and delivery planning—ensuring product intent survives implementation realities., • Ensure components are cohesive across UX, APIs, data, and operational behavior, supporting partner-grade reliability and scalability. Quality, Outcomes, Trust & Governance • Define what “success” means for the platform portfolio with clear metrics (partner adoption, onboarding speed, billing accuracy, workflow completion, retention, reliability signals, partner-reported impact)., • Instrument learning: ensure releases are measurable and that insights reliably flow back into portfolio prioritization., • Ensure platform capabilities account for the operational realities of the cloud partner ecosystem, including billing accuracy, financial reconciliation, and auditability. Qualifications • Extensive product leadership experience with 10+ years of direct experience in the cloud ecosystem, ideally across roles such as cloud operations, FinOps, partner operations, or building platforms that serve cloud customers or partners., • Proven ability to act as a "player-coach"—driving high-level strategy, executing hands-on alongside engineering, and directing/mentoring other product owners as a respected peer leader., • Strong experience with cloud billing systems, cost and usage data, or revenue operations within cloud environments., • Deep understanding of the cloud partner ecosystem (resellers, MSPs, SIs, distributors, marketplaces). Candidates have likely worked within the partner ecosystem at some point in their careers., • Experience building or operating platforms that serve channel or partner-driven business models., • Strong product sense for turning messy operational problems into clear scope and shipped value with an excellent user experience., • Technical fluency in cloud fundamentals and APIs across AWS, Google Cloud, and/or Azure., • Coding experience is a plus—enough to collaborate effectively with engineers, reason about feasibility, and understand system behaviors., • Must have demonstrated experience using AI to accelerate product specifications and development., • Excellent communication skills: ability to engage deeply with partners, cloud experts, and internal stakeholders at the executive level., • A bias for action and continuous improvement: you ship, measure, learn, and iterate.
