<div class="content-intro"><div class="elementToProof"> <p>Veeam is the Data and AI Trust Company, specializing in helping organizations ensure their data and AI are fully understood, secured, and resilient to enable the acceleration of safe AI at scale. As the market leader in both data resilience and data security posture management, Veeam is built for the convergence of identity, data, security, and AI risk. Headquartered in Seattle with offices in more than 30 countries, Veeam protects over 550,000 customers worldwide, who trust Veeam to keep their businesses running. Join us as we go fearlessly forward together, growing, learning, and making a real impact for some of the world’s biggest brands.</p> </div></div><p><span data-contrast="none">The Veeam Kasten team is looking for a high-agency, hands-on Technical Staff Product Manager to help shape the future of cloud-native data protection. Kasten is a multi-time Leader and Outperformer in the GigaOm Kubernetes Data Protection report, and we sit at the cutting edge of one of the fastest-growing markets in infrastructure software. You’ll join a friendly, fast-moving team of builders who win together and move quickly through uncharted territory.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335559739":160}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="none">This is a senior individual contributor role — there are no direct reports, and your impact comes from what you build, ship, and influence, not from the size of an org chart. You’ll spin up your own environments in the cloud, get your hands dirty with Kubernetes, test and tinker until you understand the “why,” and then evangelize what you’ve learned to customers, partners, and the engineering team. You’ll thrive here if you love building, form your convictions through rigorous, data-centric analysis, and can bring others along once you’ve convinced yourself.</span><span
