About the Private Cloud

To support the business innovate faster while still remaining secure, reliable and cost efficient, we are building and continuously operating an ecosystem of connected cloud capabilities, and are on a multi-year journey to migrate all of Booking's workloads to the cloud.

As part of this connected cloud ecosystem, the Booking Private Cloud provides a set of centrally-managed cloud platforms for running modern distributed applications in an agile cost efficient manner. These platform instances span the public cloud infrastructure (AWS) and Booking datacenters (on-premises).

Our goal is to provide a first class user experience to our internal customers (our large developer community) while solving for the challenges that come at our scale - interoperability, security, compliance and reliability.

The Product Manager will be responsible for one (or more) of the Private Cloud product areas and will be expected to build products / capabilities that drive business value by solving real customer problems. This is an individual contributor role without people management responsibilities. The Product Manager is expected to lead by influence and partner closely with the Engineering Manager(s) to drive product delivery.
