Sr. Technical Product Manager - Databases

About Nebius:

Nebius is leading a new era in cloud infrastructure for the global AI economy. We are building a full-stack AI cloud platform that supports developers and enterprises from data and model training through to production deployment, without the cost and complexity of building large in-house AI/ML infrastructure.

Built by engineers, for engineers. From large-scale GPU orchestration to inference optimization, we own the hard problems across compute, storage, networking and applied AI.

Listed on Nasdaq (NBIS) and headquartered in Amsterdam, we have a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, the UK, North America and Israel. Our team of 1,500+ includes hundreds of engineers with deep expertise across hardware, software and AI R&D.

The role

We are seeking a Senior Technical Product Manager - Databases to lead strategy and execution for Nebius database products focused on OLTP, vector, and in-memory databases used to build AI applications and agents.
You will define how customers store transactional data, retrieve semantic context, and serve low-latency memory/state for production AI systems. You will own the roadmap and priorities across transactional storage, retrieval, and real-time serving layers, translating customer problems into scalable product capabilities.
What success looks like in 12 months
- Nebius has a clear, executed database strategy for OLTP + vector + in-memory workloads in AI applications.
- Customers are running production agentic/AI apps with strong reliability and predictable latency on Nebius.
- Core quality metrics improve materially (p95/p99 latency, availability, failover recovery time, and cost-efficiency).
- Database adoption and retention grow through developer-friendly product experiences and strong workload fit.

Your responsibilities will include: 

- Define and own the product vision and roadmap for OLTP, vector, and in-memory database capabilities.
- Turn customer and market input into clear product specs, priorities, and delivery plans.
- Lead cross-functional execution with Engineering, SRE, Security, Solution Architecture, and GTM teams.
- Drive critical capabilities including replication, failover, indexing, backup/recovery, observability, and scaling.
- Shape AI-specific data patterns such as hybrid retrieval, low-latency memory access, and workload isolation.
- Use product and operational metrics to guide decisions and continuous improvement.
- Track ecosystem and competitor trends to keep Nebius differentiated in AI-native data infrastructure. 

We expect you to have: 

- Track record of owning and shipping technical platform products with measurable business and user impact.
- Strong practical understanding of OLTP systems, vector retrieval systems, and in-memory data stores.
- Ability to reason clearly about trade-offs across consistency, latency, throughput, durability, reliability, and cost.
- Experience working deeply with engineering teams building distributed, high-availability systems.
- Strong product judgment under ambiguity, and the ability to make high-quality prioritization decisions.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder leadership across technical and non-technical audiences.

  

It will be an added bonus if you have: 

- Experience with AI/LLM application architecture, RAG pipelines, and agent frameworks.
- Experience building or scaling managed database services in cloud environments.
- Background in software engineering, distributed systems, data infrastructure, or site reliability engineering.
- Experience with enterprise and developer-facing products in fast-moving B2B environments.

 

Who thrives in this role
- You like high ownership and high technical depth.
- You are comfortable making decisions with imperfect information.
- You care about shipping real outcomes, not writing roadmaps that never execute.
- You enjoy working across product, engineering, and go-to-market to deliver end-to-end impact.
