Job description
From Fivetran’s founding until now, our mission has remained the same: to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. With Fivetran, customer data arrives in their warehouses, canonical and ready to query, with no engineering or maintenance required. We’re proud that more organizations continue to leverage our technology every day to become truly data-driven.
About the Role
As Senior Product Manager of Fivetran’s SDK portfolio you will own the portfolio that enables customers and partners to build on Fivetran’s data integration platform. Our Connector SDK is a Python library that lets data engineers create a custom connector to extract data source for any source in minutes. Our Partner SDK enables Partners to build source and destination connectors and make them available to all Fivetran customers.
You’ll be a product leader that collaborates closely with engineering, marketing, sales, sales/solution engineering, and developer relations to drive customer adoption and functionality of our SDKs. This is a key company priority and is a critical feature for our most important customers.
This is a full-time, hybrid position based out of our Oakland, CA, Denver CO, or Toronto CA offices. Our hybrid work model offers a blend of remote flexibility and in-person collaboration, including two days in the office each week to connect and build as a team.
What You’ll Do
Strategy & roadmap– Prioritize features that cut average custom connector development time from hours to minutes and expand functionality and data movement options provided by the SDK offerings.
Cross-functional leadership– Partner with Connector Engineering, Solutions Architects, Analytics, Support, and Marketing to launch and grow SDK features.
Developer experience – Design intuitive code interfaces, keep the docs/code samples in lock-step, and champion first-run success.
AI-assisted developer workflow– Integrate LLM-powered agents and coding copilots into the SDK tool-chain (e.g., CLI “generate connector” wizards, schema-mapping suggestions, automated test scaffolds) to cut time-to-first-run and reduce error rates.
Quality & compatibility– Define upgrade and rollout strategies that ensure un-interrupted operation and high reliability and performance.
Adoption & community metrics – Track revenue, revenue weight usage, and churn metrics for the core API as well as pypi downloads, example use and other community engagement metrics; iterating with DevRel.
