Presto Product Manager Professional Multiple Cities

Job OverviewWe are looking for a Product Manager to drive critical work across the Presto query engine, covering coordinator/worker architecture, native C++ worker adoption via Velox, connector ecosystem, and multi-tenant workload management.Working alongside senior product leadership, you will help shape the transition to native execution, federated query strategy, and multi-tenant resource management. You will work closely with analyst-facing teams to close gaps between engine capability and end-user experience.ResponsibilitiesRoadmap: Drive the Presto engine roadmap: query planning, coordinator scalability, native worker rollout, and connector ecosystem.Native Worker Migration: Help define the strategy for transitioning from Java workers to native C++ execution: compatibility requirements, migration paths, fallback logic, and rollout milestones.Federated Query & Connectors: Contribute to federated query strategy across object stores, OLTP systems, and streaming sources via the Presto connector SPI. Help prioritize pushdown and predicate handling improvements.Multi-Tenant Workload Management: Partner with reliability engineering on resource groups, admission control, spillable operators, backpressure, and Out of Memory prevention at scale.End-User Experience: Work with BI and analyst-facing teams to translate engine.Required EducationHigh School Diploma/GEDPreferred EducationBachelor's DegreeRequired Technical and Professional ExpertiseDomain Experience: 10+ years of experience in the data infrastructure ecosystem, including roles in product management, solutions engineering, sales engineering, developer advocacy, or technical architecture within query engines, lakehouse platforms, or distributed data systems.Product Thinking: Demonstrated ability to translate customer needs, system constraints, and performance insights into clear product requirements and roadmap priorities.Open-Source Presto & SQL: Hands-on experience with open-source Presto or Trino in a production environment.
