Product Manager, API Platform

Job summary

Responsibilities

As Glean’s PM on agent interop and partnerships, you will lead the development of Glean's APIs, SDKs and MCP strategy for the developer persona within our customers and our partners.

• Own the design and evolution of our public APIs and SDKs, including versioning, deprecation, and the backwards-compatibility promises we make.
• Spec the developer experience end to end: auth, onboarding, first call, error handling, rate limiting, webhooks, and the long tail of edge cases that decide whether someone stays.
• Write code. Build the sample apps, run the integrations, and feel the rough edges yourself before a customer does.
• Read the docs like a developer who's never seen them, then fix the parts that lie or leave things out.
• Dig into support tickets and forum threads for patterns. Treat a recurring question as a design defect, not a documentation gap to paper over.

What they're looking for

• You have 5+ years of product management experience, ideally in platform, developer experience, API, SDK, or partnership-driven products
• You are deeply technical and comfortable working through API contracts, request payloads, logs, telemetry, and implementation tradeoffs with engineers
• You have built or led APIs and SDKs that are robust, scalable, and easy for external developers to adopt
• You have strong product taste for developer interfaces and care about clear abstractions, consistent resource design, and machine-readable errors
• You know how to think from the developer’s point of view and can quickly spot where documentation, workflows, or product behavior become confusing
