Position Summary & Responsibilities

Who We Are

Pulumi is the cloud infrastructure platform engineers love and enterprises trust. We help teams build, secure, and operate modern cloud applications using real programming languages, backed by an open-source foundation and a powerful SaaS platform. Industry leaders like Snowflake, NVIDIA and Supabase rely on Pulumi to turn cloud infrastructure into a competitive advantage.

Pulumi enables developers and infrastructure engineers to unlock the full power of cloud services with secure, repeatable, production-grade infrastructure across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Datadog, GitHub, and more. As an AI-first organization, we’re a leader in the AI Infrastructure space and have our own autonomous infrastructure engineering agent that brings AI-driven operations directly into the cloud engineering workflow.

While Pulumi is headquartered in Seattle, WA., we are dedicated to being a remote first company. This role will be located remotely preferably in Seattle, WA.

Open source community leadership — your roadmap lives in public, and your users are also your contributors.

If that combination sounds like the job you've been looking for, we want to talk to you.

In This Role You Will:

Own the product roadmap for Pulumi Core (engine, CLI, SDKs) and the Providers ecosystem, partnering with engineering to balance long-term architectural bets with near-term community needs.
Obsess over CLI and developer UX — the small frictions that compound over thousands of pulumi up runs, the error messages that make or break trust, the defaults that shape how people think about infrastructure. You’r
