About the Job

Who we are

i3D.net is a leading provider of high-performance, low-latency hosting through a vast, privately-owned global network. As game sector veterans, we know what it takes for an application to withstand heavy demands. Our relentless focus on quality hasn’t gone unnoticed by companies outside of the gaming industry. With our privately owned data centers, we serve some of the biggest companies in the world. Now we’re growing faster than ever, keeping some of the world’s biggest online environments and RTC services online and their users connected.

The role

As IAAS Product Manager, you are responsible for defining and executing our Infrastructure product vision. Currently, we serve multiple customer segments through Infrastructure building blocks (Data Center, Compute, and Connectivity). With an exciting Product strategy for our Infrastructure building blocks, you will get to stretch your professional abilities in a varied role that includes translating business cases to technical specifications and standardized products. You are the bridge between the commercial and technical departments in the process, working hand in hand to provide fitting solutions for the market segments we serve. Given the broad IAAS product portfolio, this role will grow along with your professional abilities as we drive our product vision forward. At first, you start with a wider range of products, and as we grow our teams and standardize, you will be assigned a product category of your own.

About you

At i3D.net, who you are is just as important as what you can do. You’ll be a hands-on self-starter with an entrepreneurial spirit who is used to being an ambassador for a global company. You can be your own master and relish the opportunity to structure your days and connect with many people both in and outside the company. With strong analytical and communication skills, you can balance customer focus with business needs. Most importantly, you’re a team player who can stand your ground in a fast-paced but fun working environment.

Work environment

You will join a young, talented, diverse, and ambitious Product Department. In 2017 our current CCO was the first Product Manager in the company, and we’ve been working on becoming a critical team within the organization ever since. Now we’re ready to scale up the Product team, take that key position within the organization to liaise with the various departments, and lead the decision-making on the Product strategy for the segments i3D.net serves. You will be working for a healthy and solid company that continues to grow at a rapid pace. The business opportunities keep presenting themselves and are getting bigger and bigger each year.

Liaise with a variety of internal and external stakeholders to deliver on key milestones that improve our Infrastructure building blocks.
Work with a multi-disciplined team (Engineering, Development, Product Owners, and others)
