Staff Product Manager - Storage & Networking

Note: This position requires presence in our Bellevue or San Francisco office location 4 days per week; Lambda's designated work from home day is currently Tuesday.

Storage and networking are what turn graphics processing units (GPUs) into a cloud. Customers come to Lambda for compute, then decide whether to stay based on where their data lives and whether the network gets it to the GPUs fast enough to keep them busy.

As a product manager on the Foundational Infrastructure team, you will own a meaningful part of defining where customer data lives on Lambda and how it gets to the GPUs. On storage, the domain covers where weights, checkpoints, and datasets sit, how customers get data in and keep it current, what performance they can count on when loading a model, and how capacity is metered and priced. On networking, it covers moving that data at the throughput training and inference demand, and the tenant isolation and virtual private cloud that enterprises require before they put production on us. It also covers how customers reach Lambda from their own networks, how traffic is balanced in front of serving endpoints, what egress they control, and how bandwidth is shared without one tenant starving another.

You will most likely work across both spaces rather than sit in one of them, following what customers need most at the time, alongside the other product managers on the team.

Most of this is the feature set a mature cloud already has and Lambda does not have yet. A neocloud is not a hyperscaler, though, and copying that list wholesale is the wrong instinct. Part of the job is judgment about which of those capabilities matter here and which carry cost we should not pay. The other part is that AI workloads move data in patterns these primitives were never designed for, and deciding where that difference should change the product is the more interesting half.
