Senior Product Manager, Cluster Linking
我们不仅仅在打造更好的技术。我们在重新定义数据的流动方式，以及世界能通过数据实现什么。在 Confluent，数据不会静止。我们的平台让信息动起来，以接近实时的方式进行流式传输，使公司能够更快地做出反应、更聪明地构建，并提供与周围世界一样动态的体验。
加入这个团队需要一种特定类型的人。那些会提出难题、给予诚实反馈并互相支持的人。没有自大，没有单打独斗。只有聪明、好奇的人一起朝着更大的目标前进。
一个 Confluent，一个团队，一个数据流平台。
关于职位：
Cluster Linking 是 Kafka 集群复制的方式，是 Confluent 的核心部分。当一家全球银行设计零数据丢失的灾难恢复方案时，当企业将 PB 级的数据从开源 Kafka 迁移出去时，或者当跨国公司跨三大洲复制事件流时，他们都在使用 Cluster Linking。
这个职位将定义 Cluster Linking 的未来：如何为 Kafka 工作负载提供无缝的灾难恢复，如何在 Confluent Cloud 中构建自助迁移路径，以及如何实现跨组织的数据共享，以推动实时的运营数据交换。
Cluster Linking 是 Confluent 增长最快的平台产品之一，你将负责其增长。我们的最大客户依赖它，而且因为它涉及 Kafka、云基础设施、网络和安全，你的工作将在公司内部具有可见性和影响力。
你将负责：
- 推出并推动一键灾难恢复计划的采用。将灾难恢复从手动配置的功能转变为客户可以放心采用的无缝产品化体验。
- 定义跨组织的实时流共享的未来，包括其安全模型、网络、访问控制以及如何在不同组织和用例中扩展。
- 提供让客户能够在几次点击或 API 调用中迁移到 Confluent 的功能。定义可能的边界，并让迁移路径成为选择 Confluent 的理由。
- 对 Cluster Linking 进行分段和重新包装。该产品服务于灾难恢复、迁移、数据共享和跨云复制，每个都有不同的客户需求和定价动态。定义如何打包、定价和定位每种产品，使产品对客户有效并推动增长。
- 与你的工程经理 counterpart 密切合作，作为战略合作伙伴。利用这一关系

We’re not just building better tech. We’re rewriting how data moves and what the world can do with it. With Confluent, data doesn’t sit still. Our platform puts information in motion, streaming in near real-time so companies can react faster, build smarter, and deliver experiences as dynamic as the world around them.
It takes a certain kind of person to join this team. Those who ask hard questions, give honest feedback, and show up for each other. No egos, no solo acts. Just smart, curious humans pushing toward something bigger, together.
One Confluent. One Team. One Data Streaming Platform.
ABOUT THE ROLE:
Cluster Linking is how Kafka clusters are replicated, and it sits at the very core of Confluent. When a global bank architects zero-data-loss disaster recovery, when an enterprise migrates petabytes off open-source Kafka, or when a multinational replicates event streams across three continents, they're running on Cluster Linking.
This role will define the future of Cluster Linking: how we deliver seamless disaster recovery for Kafka workloads, how we build self-service migration paths into Confluent Cloud, and how we enable cross-organization data sharing to power real-time, operational data exchanges.
Cluster Linking is one of Confluent's fastest-growing platform products and you'll own that growth. Our largest customers depend on it, and because it cuts across Kafka, cloud infrastructure, networking, and security, your work will have visibility and influence across the company.
WHAT YOU WILL DO:
- Launch and drive adoption for our one-click DR initiative. Take disaster recovery from a manually configured capability to a seamless, productized experience that customers can adopt with confidence.
- Define the future of real-time stream sharing across organizations, including its security model, networking, access controls, and how it scales across organizations and use cases.
- Power capabilities that let customers migrate to Confluent in a few clicks or API calls. Define the art of the possible and make the migration path a reason to choose Confluent.
- Segment and re-package Cluster Linking. The product serves Disaster Recovery, migrations, data sharing, and cross-cloud replication, each with different customer needs and pricing dynamics. Define how we package, price, and position each so the offering works for customers and drives growth.
- Partner closely with your engineering manager counterpart as a strategic partner. Use that partnership to understand tradeoffs, make decisions fast, and keep the product moving forward.
- Work directly with customers. You'll be pulled in many directions, customers will ask a lot of you. Your job is to steer them toward the right architectures and models, get them excited about what's coming, listen to what they need next, and balance the present opportunity with where the product is headed.
- Drive results. Run campaigns with sellers and solutions engineers, lead webinars, assemble teams of subject matter experts, and do what it takes to move your priorities forward.
- Influence and energize the people around you. Confluent moves fast and people are ready to help. Harness that, get teams excited, rally cross-functional support, and turn organizational momentum into product momentum.
WHAT YOU WILL BRING:
- 5+ years of product management experience, ideally in infrastructure, data platforms, or cloud products. You've shipped technical products and driven measurable outcomes.
- Genuine interest in distributed systems and cloud infrastructure. Kafka is not simple. You don't need prior Kafka expertise, but you need to be energized by technical depth, not put off by it.
- A results-driven mindset. You don't wait for things to happen, you make them happen. You get on calls with sellers, you pull in the right people, and you keep pushing until the work is done.
- Proven ability to influence. You get people excited and aligned, across engineering, field, sales, finance, and leadership, often without formal authority.
- Strong ownership mentality. You take responsibility from day one. You drive ambiguous problems to clarity, remove blockers, and treat the product like your own business.
- Business thinking beyond the backlog. You think about segmentation, packaging, pricing, and market impact, not just features. You understand that how a product is offered matters as much as what it does.
- Clear communication. You can make technical topics understandable for executive audiences, write sharp product docs, and present confidently to customers and leadership.
- LLM or GenAI knowledge is a bonus, but not required
