Our first product helps companies run GitHub Actions substantially faster and cheaper by owning and operating our own global fleet of bare-metal machines rather than renting generic cloud VMs.\n\nToday, we orchestrate tens of millions of Firecracker VMs each week, running CI for 7,000+ companies and tens of millions in ARR. We’ve grown 10x so far in 2026.\n\nWe operate thousands of bare-metal machines across multiple regions, regularly schedule 100k+ vCPUs concurrently, and run a petabyte-scale Ceph cluster that we manage ourselves.\n\nWe’ve raised $58.5M from Seed to Series B, led by Google Ventures (GV) & Peak XV Partners, and we’re intentionally building a small, but exceptional team.\n\nBlacksmith was founded by a team with deep systems and scaling experience, including building search/ads infrastructure at Faire, and operating large distributed systems at Cockroach Labs. Our GTM is led by Jon Boyer, formerly Head of Sales at Zapier.\n\nWe're now extending the same CI infrastructure into a broader platform: running agent sandboxes at scale and building our own background coding agent on top of it.\n\nYou're a good fit if you\nHave strong taste in what not to build. Blacksmith cares deeply about delight and keeping things simple, and enterprise roadmaps are where products go to bloat. You'll make real progress for our largest customers while fighting the “enshittification” of the product.\n\nHave shipped enterprise capabilities at a growth-stage infrastructure or developer-tools company. You've personally taken a product through the SSO/RBAC/audit-log/security-review gauntlet and know what makes a buyer's security team say yes.\n\nHave matured a post-PMF product, not just launched new ones. You find \"make the core product undeniable for the biggest customers\" more compelling than greenfield exploration.\n\nAre technical enough to earn trust with infrastructure engineers and technical buyers. You understand CI/CD, cloud networking, and compute platforms, and can go deep on how ours work.\n\nHave sold to or worked closely with enterprise buyers (VP Eng, Head of Platform, CISO) and understand procurement cycles, security reviews, and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA).\n\nAre AI-native in your own workflow: Claude/Cursor-style tools daily, comfortable with MCP and CLI-based tooling, and instinctively automate the manual parts of the PM job.\n\nAlways take a customer-first approach and enjoy being the voice of the customer internally.\n\nWhat you'll be working on\nThis is not a 0-to-1 exploration role. Our products have strong pull; your job is to make them enterprise-grade as we move upmarket from high-growth startups to large engineering organizations.\nOwn the roadmap that makes Blacksmith enterprise-ready across our product lines (CI, sandboxes, and our coding agent). You'll operate like a GM for our enterprise segment: you own the outcome across product lines and work with whichever engineering teams own the relevant systems, rather than owning one team going after a greenfield opportunity.\n\nDefine and drive our security, auditability, and compliance surface: audit logging and SIEM integrations, certifications, and the trust documentation that gets us through enterprise security review.\n\nShape our enterprise networking story: static egress identity, egress policy controls, private connectivity, and tenant isolation, in partnership with the engineering teams that operate our fleet.\n\nOwn enterprise identity and administration: SSO, roles and permissions, org management, and least-privilege integration models.\n\nBuild the programmatic surface enterprises expect: usage and cost APIs, cost attribution, and integrations into the observability and cost-management tools our customers already run.\n\nSit in on enterprise deals with sales; turn procurement blockers, security questionnaires, and POC feedback into a prioritized roadmap. Own packaging and pricing for the enterprise tier with GTM.\n\nCompensation and benefits\nMedical, Vision, and Dental insurance.\n\nCompetitive base + equity.\n\n401k match.\n\nUnlimited PTO.\n\nAnnual offsite.\n\nEarly-exercise stock options.\n\n12 weeks fully paid parental leave (US).","description_format":"text","description_chars":4242,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["401k plan","Dental insurance","Equity","Parental leave","Stock options","Unlimited PTO"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["DevOps & Platform Engineering","Cloud Platforms (IaaS & PaaS)"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-10T16:00:21Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":53,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.73,"p_room":0.72,"age_days":95,"expected_fill_days":147,"reasons":["conf:0","win:mid","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-02T06:13:15Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":240000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/blacksmith-enterprise-product-manager-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/blacksmith-enterprise-product-manager-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-03T01:47:26Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2372,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-04T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":19767},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=19767"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fblacksmith-enterprise-product-manager-2"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fblacksmith-enterprise-product-manager-2"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fblacksmith-enterprise-product-manager-2"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/blacksmith-enterprise-product-manager-2\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fblacksmith-enterprise-product-manager-2"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":596269}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"blacksmith.sh","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":596269},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
