This is a new and growing department at Fastly so this is a great opportunity for you to have a significant impact on our product operations practices and processes.
If you excel at understanding business objectives and executing operations to enable teams to deliver products that delight customers, you'll thrive at Fastly. This role will be responsible for driving product, financial, and technical processes which, married with data and analytics across the company, will build transparency within the organization and enable informed prioritization decisions.
You will be a leader at Fastly. You will engage teams to make our products, platform, and tools more powerful and more useful to our customers. You will be relied upon by a wide array of individuals and teams across Fastly.

This is a role which has an impact on a large number of human lives. We provide a supportive environment with friendly teams, where you can learn and develop. We check our egos at the door. We are a global, distributed team with the dedication and tools in place to make it work.
