Postgres has become the default data layer for AI-native applications, and Supabase is where most of those applications get built. The Core division owns the surfaces that make that possible: Postgres, Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and the platform substrate they all run on. 7,000,000+ developers build on these products, from indie hackers shipping side projects to enterprises in regulated industries running production workloads. Every line a customer writes against Supabase lands on one of them.
We're hiring a Core Product Lead to own the product strategy across Core. You'll manage the PMs who run each product, set the bets that decide what Core becomes over the next 12–18 months, and make the cross-product calls no individual PM can. The role reports to the Head of Product.
Build and develop the Core PM team. You'll manage the PMs across Platform, Databases, Auth, Storage, Functions, and Realtime. Hire into open seats, coach the PMs already on the team, run performance cycles, and make sure every product surface has an owner who can carry it.
Set the product strategy across Core. Decide where the bets are and how the products reinforce each other. Defend that agenda with the founders and the engineering leads who run each team.
Make the cross-product calls. The hardest prioritisation in Core sits between products. What Auth ships affects Databases. What Realtime needs from Postgres shapes the database roadmap. Own those calls.
Coach PMs on the craft. Customer evidence, problem definition, prioritisation, success metrics, written communication. Sit in on customer calls and roadmap reviews, read the docs and PRDs your PMs write, and tell them what's working and what isn't.
Represent Core in leadership. Be the person who can speak to the state of every Core product in a board meeting, customer escalation, or strategy review without pulling in the individual PM every time. Translate engineering reality into a story the rest of the company can act on.
Have managed product managers before, ideally at the Director level or equivalent. You've hired PMs, fired PMs, run performance cycles, coached people through promotions, and held a team together through a hard quarter. You can name the PMs you've developed and what they went on to do.
Have 8+ years of product management experience on developer tools or infrastructure, or an ex-founder background with the same depth. You're technical enough to read an architecture doc, follow a design discussion, and ask the right questions of engineers building distributed systems, databases, or cloud platforms.
Have shipped in the Postgres, database, or developer-infrastructure space. You've owned products in this category, not just worked next to them. You understand how developers evaluate them, what makes them stick, and where they fail under load. Familiarity with open-source go-to-market (where the product, community, and commercial offering reinforce each other) is a bonus.
Are biased toward speed. You'd rather have your team ship something imperfect and learn than spend another sprint refining a spec. You know when to stop planning and when to push your PMs to move.
Use AI to move faster. You use AI tools to compress the slow parts of the job (research, drafting, synthesising customer feedback, reviewing PRDs) so more of your time goes to judgment calls and to the people you manage.
Work async by default. Supabase is fully remote. You make decisions in writing, run your team through written artifacts, and move things forward without filling the calendar with meetings.
Fully Remote
We hire globally. We believe you can do your best work from anywhere. There are no Supabase offices, but we provide a WeWork membership or co-working allowance you can use anywhere in the world.
ESOP
Every team member receives ESOP (equity ownership) in the company. We want everyone to share in the upside of what we’re building together.
Tech Allowance
Use this budget to set up your ideal work environment—laptop, monitor, headphones, or whatever helps you do your best work.
Health Benefits
Supabase covers 100% of health insurance for employees and 80% for dependents, wherever you are. Your wellbeing and your family’s health are important to us.
Annual Off-Sites
Once a year, the entire company gathers in a new city for a week of connection, collaboration, and fun. It’s a highlight of our year.
Flexible Work
We operate asynchronously and trust you to manage your own time. You know what needs to be done and when.
Professional Development
Every team member receives an annual education allowance to spend on learning—courses, books, conferences, or anything that supports your growth.
Supabase was born-remote and open-source-first. We believe our globally distributed team is our secret weapon in building tools developers love.
280+ team members
55+ countries
20+ languages spoken
$500M raised

We move fast, build in public, and use what we ship. If it’s in your project, we probably use it in ours too. We believe deeply in the open-source ecosystem and strive to support—not replace—existing tools and communities.
We keep things simple, async-friendly, and respectful of your time:
Apply – Our team will review your application.
Intro Call – A short video chat to get to know each other.
Interviews – Up to four calls with:
Team Leads
Future teammates
Someone cross-functional from product, growth, or engineering (depending on the role)
Someone from our leadership/founding team
Decision – We may follow up with a final question or go straight to offer.
All communication is remote and we aim to move fast.
