About this role

Thank you for considering Tailscale. If this job description resonates with you, please apply. Frequently cited statistics show that people who identify with historically marginalized groups are likely to apply to jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications. We encourage you to help us break that statistic! About Tailscale Tailscale is making safe connection effortless by delivering software that makes it easy to securely interconnect people and their devices, no matter where they are.

From hobbyists to multinational corporations, teams of every size use Tailscale each day to protect their networks, share access to internal tools, and more.

About the Role We’re seeking an experienced Staff Product Operations Manager to own how Tailscale’s Product org operates.

You’ll look across how Product plans, launches, learns from customers, and measures results, identify the gaps that matter most, and design the systems to close them. You’ll partner with Product leadership as a strategic contributor and shape how Product connects to GTM, Support, Data, and company planning. Because we’re an early-stage, fully remote company, we’re looking for someone who works with full autonomy. You’ll turn broad goals into clear strategies, decide what’s worth pursuing, and build alignment at every level.

You’ll report to the Manager, Program Management. Key Responsibilities You will work as part of the Program Management team to: Roadmap health Own the strategy and standards for roadmap health, including how initiative and epic dates and health are defined, tracked, and reported. Evolve the Product org’s continuous planning cadence as the company grows, and connect it to company planning. Own the external roadmap and how it’s communicated to customers and the field.

Product launch health Define the launch framework and readiness standards used across Product, PMM, Sales, and Support. Partner with PMM, Sales, and Support leaders to make launch readiness consistent and measurable. Internal documentation and onboarding Set the standards for how Product org documentation is structured and maintained, so teams can keep it current themselves. Design the Product team’s onboarding program as the org grows.
