About this role
Product Manager — Virtualisation & Cloud Infrastructure
Location: Remote in Europe / EMEA
Department: Product Management
Employment type: Contractor friendly
Virtuozzo is a provider of infrastructure software for AI and the cloud, helping cloud service providers, SaaS companies, and enterprises build and operate efficient, scalable infrastructure. We combine an optimized operating system with orchestration, management, automation, and protection to deliver mainframe-like efficiency, performance, reliability, versatility, and security—while reducing overall cost and complexity.
Our Virtuozzo Infrastructure System (V/IS) brings together compute, storage, and networking to support traditional applications, cloud-native workloads, and AI services. We help organisations modernise their infrastructure, make better use of their hardware, and bring new cloud- and GPU-powered services to market on their own infrastructure and under their own brand.
Our technology serves more than 100,000 companies in over 100 countries. With deep engineering roots, we pioneered container-based virtualisation and continue to contribute to foundational open-source projects, including OpenVZ, the Linux kernel, Kubernetes, CRIU, KVM, and OpenStack.
The Role
We are looking for a Product Manager for V/IS to help shape the future of the Virtuozzo product suite, including virtualisation, cloud management platforms, and infrastructure solutions for CSP, MSP, and SME markets.
This is a high-impact role for someone who combines strong product judgement, technical depth, market awareness, and customer empathy. You will work closely with engineering, sales, marketing, support, and customer-facing teams to define what we build, why we build it, how we position it, and how it creates measurable value for customers.
This is not a pure backlog-management role. We are looking for someone who can think strategically, engage deeply with technical customers, understand infrastructure markets, make clear prioritisation decisions, and turn product direction into execution.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Drive product strategy for the Virtuozzo product suite, including virtualisation, cloud management platforms, and infrastructure solutions for CSP, MSP, and SME markets.
- Develop a comprehensive product roadmap that aligns with company business objectives, customer needs, market opportunities, and Virtuozzo’s broader platform direction.
- Engage with key customers and stakeholders to gather insights, validate product hypotheses, and refine strategies to address market demands.
- Collaborate closely with engineering, marketing, sales, and support teams to ensure successful execution of product launches, feature iterations, and market positioning.
- Lead market analysis to identify trends, opportunities, and competitive threats, ensuring Virtuozzo is positioned to capitalise on new technologies and shifts in the market.
- Define and implement pricing models and value propositions that drive customer adoption and revenue growth while maintaining a competitive edge in the market.
- Work on cross-product initiatives to create a seamless experience across the Virtuozzo ecosystem, including integrations with third-party tools and emerging technologies.
- You will also help connect product strategy to real customer outcomes: faster cloud service launches, lower infrastructure cost, better operational efficiency, improved monetisation for service providers, and a simpler experience across the Virtuozzo platform.
What You Bring
- 5+ years of product management experience in cloud infrastructure, virtualisation, cloud management platforms, infrastructure software, hosting, telco cloud, MSP/CSP platforms, or adjacent technical domains.
- Strong understanding of cloud infrastructure technologies such as virtualisation, KVM, OpenStack, Kubernetes, software-defined storage, networking, orchestration, automation, or cloud management platforms.
- Experience building product strategy and roadmaps for technical B2B products used by infrastructure teams, service providers, managed service providers, enterprises, or SaaS companies.
- Ability to work closely with engineering teams and engage in technical discussions with architects, developers, solution architects, support engineers, and customer operations teams.
- Strong customer-discovery skills, with the ability to translate technical and commercial pain points into clear product priorities.
- Experience with market analysis, competitor research, pricing, packaging, value propositions, and product positioning.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to create clear product narratives, roadmap updates, business cases, and launch materials.
- A structured, analytical approach to prioritization, with comfort using customer input, market data, usage data, commercial impact, and technical feasibility to make product decisions.
- Confidence working across distributed, international teams.
Nice to Have
- CSP, MSP, hosting, telco, or cloud service provider environments.
- VMware alternatives, OpenStack-based platforms, KVM-based virtualisation, Kubernetes orchestration, or infrastructure automation.
- Product ownership for cloud control panels, cloud management platforms, portals, billing integrations, self-service platforms, or infrastructure operations tooling.
- Pricing and packaging for infrastructure software, subscription models, usage-based models, or service-provider commercial models.
- Familiarity with AI infrastructure, GPU infrastructure, edge infrastructure, hybrid cloud, or multi-cloud management.
What We Offer
- Remote work from Europe / EMEA.
- Flexible working hours and a distributed international team.
- High ownership and visibility within the Product organisation.
- The opportunity to influence product and R&D direction from day one.
- A technical, engineering-driven culture with practical decision-making and minimal bureaucracy.
- Work on meaningful infrastructure products used by cloud providers, MSPs, SaaS companies, and enterprises.
- Private medical insurance support, depending on location and employment setup.
- Additional benefits depending on country, location, and preferred employment method.
