Product Manager – Network Backbone & Platform

Описание

At Cato Networks, we're rebuilding the network from the ground up as a secure, global cloud service, and are looking for an experienced and technically skilled Product Manager to join our Network & Platform team, focusing on the Cato global backbone and platform. You'll own the Cato backbone and platform strategy and roadmap, with the goal of a stable, resilient network that meets 99.999% availability. You'll be the focal point between Operations and Engineering, defining capabilities that improve the network and driving them from priority to delivery. The role is mostly internal, with occasional work with customers and partners.

Responsibilities

• Own the Cato backbone and platform strategy and roadmap
• Define requirements for availability, redundancy, resiliency, and failure handling together with Operations and Engineering
• Set priorities, build the plan with both teams, and follow it through delivery
• Drive platform decisions on cloud deployments, fabric/interconnect providers, and traffic engineering
• Work with customers and partners on backbone-related needs as required

Requirements

• Strong technical background in network design and architecture, with experience operating large-scale, global platforms
• Deep understanding of network availability and redundancy: failure domains, failover, capacity planning, and designing for five-nines
• 5+ years in product management or network operations in cloud or networking environments
• Knowledge of cloud platform deployments, fabric providers, Service Provider networks, and traffic engineering
• Strong cross-functional skills: you can align Ops and Engineering and drive execution without direct authority

Nice to have

• Background in network operations (NetOps/NOC)
