Staff Product Manager, Sail CoreActive

The opportunity

Sail Core builds Stripe's frontend platform—the data layer, navigation, observability, and developer tooling that 50+ product teams use to ship web applications, with the Dashboard being the largest. We are responsible for enabling a stellar developer experience for frontend engineers at Stripe.

What you'll do

  • Own the product strategy and roadmap for Stripe's frontend platform

  • Drive the largest frontend modernization initiative at Stripe while holding the line on architectural quality

  • Redefine frontend development with agentic tooling

  • Define and track key metrics such as latency, build times, and reliability: SLOs to make difficult trade-off decisions

  • Be the product voice in deeply technical decisions such as API surface: design, framework deprecation sequencing, extraction boundaries, and migration tooling

What they're looking for

  • + years of product management experience, with at least 2 years on platform,: infrastructure, or developer tools teams
  • Strong technical fluency in frontend web development—you discuss JavaScript: and TypeScript, React component models, build systems, and performance optimization with depth
  • Experience driving large-scale migrations or platform transitions across: multiple teams, including the sequencing, dependency management, and stakeholder alignment that make them succeed
  • Demonstrated use of quantitative metrics to drive platform investment: decisions—you've defined the metrics, not just tracked them
  • Track record of partnering with engineering to make architectural trade-offs grounded in user impact
  • Engineering background—you've written frontend code professionally and it: still shapes how you think about product decisions
  • Led or significantly contributed to a legacy extraction or monolith: decomposition effort and understand viscerally why they're hard and where they get stuck
  • Believe that fast software is the best software
