(Lead/Senior) Technical Product Manager - Platform Engineering (m/f/d)

1KOMMA5°

We bring together regional craftsmanship and scalable software: We don't think of solar, batteries, heat pumps, and e-mobility as isolated components, but control them as an intelligent, integrated overall system in our virtual power plant. Directly connected to the electricity market - in real time, fully automated. This way, energy is used when it is available from renewables and particularly cost-effective. By 2030, our goal is to transition 1.5 million households to renewable energies. Over 3,000 people are working towards this every day, at more than 80 locations worldwide, from Finland to Australia.

Your mission

As (Lead/Senior) Technical Product Manager for Platform Engineering, you will shape the internal platform products that help our builders ship better software faster, more reliably, and with less friction.

You will partner with engineering across Developer Platform & Security to turn complex platform capabilities into products that developers and AI agents love to use. Your work will cover internal developer experience, cloud and infrastructure workflows, CI/CD, observability, security guardrails, Backstage, AI coding tools and agentic workflows.

This is a senior individual contributor role. You will not manage people, but you will influence technical direction, product strategy, and adoption across engineering.
