Product Manager, Firewall

Deliver the best firewall routing and SD-WAN solution on the market by working with brilliant hard-working and experienced engineers. This role comes with significant responsibility autonomy and direct impact on customer outcomes. Specifically you will work on features for our firewall such as Site-to-Site VPN (thousands of hubs and spokes) ACLs BGP over WAN BGP over AutoVPN DNS security IDS/IPS etc.

Zooming out Meter is a vertically integrated stack from ISP Firewall Routing SD-WAN Security Wireless Switching Mobile and Power. This vertical integration allows us to deliver great networking and outcomes for our customers.

Meters goal is to build the best-in-class product for each platform and that only happens when our hardware and software teams work together.

Meters architecture is modular at every layer and this is what allows us to build products and features at a very high velocity (OS firmware data plane control plane backend/API and Dashboard/UI/UX). You need to have a thorough understanding of routing ACLs NAT BGP OSPF and packet policy.

Meter is a fast-moving environment and we invest heavily in doers.

In your day-to-day you will be working with firewall firmware engineers to design features and weigh in the tradeoffs understand and organize requests from the support team triage bugs found by the Quality Engineering (QE) team join QBR calls with a customer and plan a weekly roadmap with our cofounder.

You should be ready to override your past experiences regarding architecture feature velocity team collaboration and product quality.

You will collaborate with the backend team building our APIs frontend team building our Dashboard and models team building our autonomous model. Youre expected to learn how these layers work in the first 12 months at Meter.

You will collaborate with the QE team to make sure what we release is exceptionally stable and easy to deploy.

Every discussion you have every decision you make should be in service of customer outcomes.

Youve built products in the enterprise security or networking industry and you deeply understand how IT administrators and network engineers use products. You know the difficulties managing firewall policies across thousands of devices in critical environments.

But more than domain knowledge what makes someone exceptional in this role is how they work with people and understand customer pain points. You communicate with clarity across technical and non-technical audiences and bring teams into alignment without needing formal authority. Youve shipped incrementally learned from imperfect v1s and kept a team pointed in the same direction even when the problem got messier than expected.

You dont need a fully defined playbook to get started. You see a customers need and run toward it.

To be successful at Meter you need to have the ability to absorb information quickly learn fast make quick decisions experiment readily keep an open mind and work as a team without exception.

The internet runs the world. Every purchase you make video call you join its all packets flowing through networks. But those networks havent changed for decades. Theyre brittle complex and surprisingly hard to set up in an enterprise space.

We started Meter to build better networks. We had to build everything from the ground up: designing and building our own enterprise hardware intuitive software and streamlined operations to deliver great outcomes for our customers. Today we build and deploy these networks at scale. Ambitious companies and enduring institutions like Bridgewater Lyft and Reddit rely on Meter to keep their thousands of employees and locations online and productive.

Our bet is simple: We will all use the internet more than we do today. We have the definitive networking stack to enable businesses to do so as seamlessly and reliably as any modern utility.
