About the role

  • The ecosystem spans the Storefront GraphQL API, a versioned SDK framework, a Reference Theme, Checkout modernization, B2B integration, Native Hosting on Cloudflare Workers, and a Visual Builder integration.
  • You need to be as comfortable reading code as you are writing a roadmap - able to run the product locally, open a PR when something needs fixing, and go deep on technical decisions without waiting for someone to explain them.
  • That doesn't mean you know everything, it means you're willing to go figure it out.

Responsibilities

  • Own the roadmap for your assigned product lanes and contribute to the broader Catalyst strategy alongside senior product leadership, ensuring your work converges into a coherent whole
  • Prioritize the execution path within your areas by making smart trade-offs - balancing developer experience improvements, feature support, hosting infrastructure, and architectural modernization against finite team capacity
  • Help drive the Native Hosting product from alpha through GA - including CLI experience, deployment architecture, custom domain assignment, usage metering, and pricing
  • Support monetization strategy and product growth drivers for Native Hosting and the broader Catalyst ecosystem
  • Track KPIs and monitor performance against goals: live storefronts, GMV, churn rate, reported bugs, MRR, and partner sentiment
  • Build dashboards, living reports, and automations to make metrics self-serve and scale your time
  • Identify potential issues early and help develop contingency plans
  • Ensure APIs, SDKs, and documentation are structured so that AI coding agents can build on the platform effectively
  • Drive Developer Excellence
  • Help build SDK strategies that ensure consistency while respecting language and framework idioms

Requirements

  • 3+ years of technical product management experience, with at least 1 year focused on developer platforms, SDKs, APIs, or framework-level products
  • Experience with ecommerce platforms, headless commerce, or composable architecture patterns
  • Familiarity with visual builder / CMS products and their integration into developer frameworks
  • Experience with API monetization and usage-based pricing models
  • The product experience starts when someone first hears about Catalyst and doesn't stop until they're live in production.

Nice to have

  • Familiarity with edge computing platforms, serverless architecture, or infrastructure products - ideally Cloudflare Workers, Durable Objects, KV, and R2
  • Experience contributing to complex, multi-team technical initiatives from concept through execution

Skills

  • Welcome to the Agentic Commerce Era
  • Understand and monitor the competitive landscape - Shopify Hydrogen, Vercel Commerce, and the broader composable commerce ecosystem
  • Champion developer experience as a primary competitive advantage - targeting fast time to live storefront

Compensation

  • The national base salary range for this role is posted above in this job post.
  • Final compensation will be determined based on factors such as relevant experience, skills, qualifications and geographic location.
  • We also consider internal equity to help ensure fair and consistent pay practices across our teams.
  • Where applicable, this role may also be eligible for variable compensation (such as bonus or commission), equity, and benefits in accordance with local policies.
  • We are committed to equitable and transparent pay practices that align to market data, internal equity, and individual contribution.
  • Our platform currently serves tens of thousands of developers globally, processing billions of dollars in merchant revenue annually.

Benefits

  • You'll own execution across several of these areas and partner with senior product leadership on the overall vision.

Company info

  • Communicate clearly with internal stakeholders to keep your engineering team set up for success. Help frame cross-team work within a unified narrative so that what customers see as "the Catalyst Roadmap" reflects the full picture
  • Build relationships with customers and partners to gather feedback. Engage directly with partners, agencies, and merchants - validate priorities and set realistic expectations
  • Catalyst is the architectural forcing function moving BigCommerce toward a public-API-first, composable commerce platform - and you'll be a core part of it.
