Mysten Labs believes that decentralized and open protocols are the bedrock of the internet of value. This is why at Mysten Labs, we are creating foundational infrastructure to accelerate the adoption of decentralized protocols based on blockchain technologies.

As a Senior Product Manager for Walrus, you will own the core data platform and its key product surfaces, including Walrus Sites and other products built on top of Walrus. This role sits at the intersection of storage, data delivery, and developer experience, shaping how developers store, serve, and manage data in production systems.

You’ll be responsible for defining the direction not just of Walrus itself, but also of the ecosystem of products and workflows that depend on it: from developer-facing abstractions and APIs, to hosting, access control, and higher-level use cases. You’ll work closely with senior engineers, GTM & internal product teams, and external partners to turn strong technical foundations into a coherent, reliable platform that scales with real-world usage.

This is a senior role with real ownership. You’ll be expected to make tradeoffs, operate with autonomy, and guide Walrus and its dependent surfaces from early adoption to maturity.

• What you’ll do

  • Own and evolve the product strategy and roadmap for Walrus along with its key surfaces, including Walrus Sites and other products built on top of Walrus

  • Partner deeply with engineering to improve performance, scalability, reliability, and cost efficiency across storage and data delivery workflows

  • Define and ship developer-facing abstractions and experiences (e.g. Blob Management primitives, APIs, SDKs, tooling, documentation) that make Walrus easy to adopt

  • Collaborate closely with the GTM team to evolve the positioning & messaging for the broader ecosystem

  • Support internal product teams building on Walrus, and external partners adopting it in production

  • Incorporate partner, ecosystem, and operator feedback into clear product priorities and tradeoffs

• What you’ll have

  • 5+ years of experience as a Product Manager, including ownership of technical platform or infrastructure products used by developers or infrastructure operators

  • Proven ability to own ambiguous problems end-to-end, from problem framing and discovery through execution, launch, and iteration.

  • Strong technical fluency and comfort working closely with engineers on APIs, data flows, performance tradeoffs, and system design (without needing to be the architect).

  • Experience leading multi-quarter initiatives across engineering, design, docs, developer relations, and external partners, with clear prioritization and tradeoff decisions.

  • Good product judgment, including ability to balance developer experience, system constraints, scalability, and long-term platform direction.

  • Clear, concise communication skills, especially when translating complex technical systems into goals, narratives, and decisions others can align around.

• If you have it, nice!

  • Experience shaping or scaling ecosystems, not just products (e.g. working with external builders, partners, foundations, or community contributors)

  • Exposure to content, media, AI, or data monetization use cases (datasets, marketplaces, or gated access models)

  • Familiarity with security, privacy, or data governance concepts in production systems (even if you weren’t the domain expert)

  • Hands-on or product-level involvement with open-source projects or protocol-driven development environments
