Retool

San Francisco, US · Full-time · $160,000 – $220,000

About this role

The Apps team owns Retool's core frontend app builder, used daily by thousands of builders to create mission-critical business applications. As Product Manager for Apps, you'll make it approachable and intuitive for both human builders and AI to build scalable, well-designed applications that meet enterprise standards.

You will combine code, visual programming, and AI into a cohesive, one-of-a-kind app building experience. You'll partner with design, UXR, and engineering to make app building approachable and intuitive for today's and tomorrow's developers.

You'll work closely with the Apps engineering team and partner with design and product peers across Platform and AI teams. You'll also collaborate with GTM partners in Sales, Account Management, Product Marketing, and DevRel to bring new capabilities to market and incorporate customer feedback.

You'll drive foundational performance and reliability improvements that make it a no-brainer to build in Retool instead of from scratch. Treat Assist, our AI co-builder, as a first-class customer and build high-quality frontend building blocks for it to work with.

Requirements

4+ years of product management experience, ideally in platforms, developer tools, or other creator-focused products.
Ability to think strategically about user experience and work closely with engineering to ship high-quality products.
Strong generalist skill set: can switch between product strategy, execution, and customer advocacy.
Comfort with technical concepts — you don’t need to be a developer, but you should be able to speak their language (or learn quickly).
Excellent communication and prioritization skills; you can synthesize customer input and internal priorities into clear roadmaps.
