About Ngrok Inc.

At ngrok, we believe that doing networking the right way should also be the easy way. Over the last 10 years, we’ve given developers and engineers simple interfaces for getting traffic into their apps and APIs without forcing them to deal with legacy proxies, external load balancers, or VPNs, and we’re now part of the standard stack for more than 9 million developers at some of the world’s top technology brands, like GitHub, Okta, HashiCorp, and Twilio.

Over the last few years, we’ve completely changed how that interface looks and works to make it easier, more composable, and infinitely flexible. We now give anyone who needs a “front door” to their apps or APIs powerful tools to orchestrate traffic, secure public endpoints, accelerate their services on a global network, observe all traffic passing to/from their network, and much more. The ngrok that millions love and trust has been completely transformed for the better.

The opportunity

As a Senior Technical Product Manager (PM) at ngrok, you will spearhead building the next generation of products that redefine the developer experience to increase the pace of innovation on the internet. As a pivotal link between our customers and engineering team, you’ll navigate seamlessly between the factory and the field to construct feedback loops, map problems to real features and products, write detailed product specs, test hypotheses, and deliver insights. Embracing a deeply technical product designed for an equally technical audience is essential.

This is a remote position for candidates outside of the Bay Area and a hybrid role for candidates within commuting distance to San Francisco. Our Bay Area employees commute to the office on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

All candidates must be US-based, and legally authorized to work in the United States.
