PRINCIPAL PROGRAM MANAGER

## About the role - Own connector strategy and the catalog roadmap: decide which sources to build, buy, or enable through partners, and grow the catalog by an order of magnitude while raising the bar on reliability and time-to-value for every connector. - Build the partner ecosystem: Drive the Custom Connector framework that lets customers and ISV partners build, certify, and monetize their own connectors - taking it from preview to GA, including the security, billing, and compliance (CELA) work that makes it enterprise-ready. - Lead the hard enterprise work that unblocks production adoption: VNet and on-premises connectivity, TLS/mTLS with customer-managed certificates, the networking and isolation guarantees large enterprises require, as well as any other enterprise promises. - Own the business. Carry connector MAU, capacity units (CU), and active tenants as the metrics that tie directly back to Eventstream revenue, and run the space with the discipline of a P&L owner. - Partner with engineering to ship. Work day-to-day with a connector engineering team, providing clear specs, crisp prioritization, and the follow-through that keeps a fast-moving team unblocked. - Drive strategic customer success. Work directly with strategic enterprise customers across Asia - in their timezone and their context - to land production deployments and turn their requirements into roadmap. ## Requirements - Bachelor's Degree AND 8+ years experience in product/service/program management or software development OR equivalent experience. - Experience with data integration, streaming/event-driven systems, connectors, or ETL/ingestion platforms. - Experience shipping enterprise security and networking capabilities (VNet/private networking, TLS/mTLS, certificate management, tenant isolation). - Experience building a partner or ISV ecosystem — extensibility frameworks, certification programs, or marketplace/monetization mechanics. - A track record of growing a product area as a business, with fluency in usage and revenue metrics. - Experience collaborating across distributed, multi-timezone engineering teams.
