Y Combinator Senior Product Manager, Code
Summary
Leads the product roadmap for developer-focused tools (e.g., code components) at a no-code platform, balancing visual design with real code extensibility while collaborating with engineering, design, and data teams to build shared primitives and adapt to AI-assisted coding trends.
Build surfaces that serve developers who write code and the AI agents that increasingly write it alongside them, treating both as first-class users. Own the roadmap and delivery across the Code surfaces, starting with code components, in close partnership with Engineering, Design, and Data. Define the quality bar for developer-grade extensibility, including keeping a visual product and real code faithful to each other as each side changes. Sequence the work so the pieces reinforce each other and build shared primitives once. Contribute heavily to strategy and then ship it, working as a partner rather than waiting to be handed direction. Get into the code by prototyping, reading, and reasoning about it to stay close enough to implementation to make sharp technical calls. Place durable bets in a shifting landscape as developer tooling and AI-assisted coding evolve.
