Program Manager

The aim of Bitnami is to simplify the deployment of web applications, such as wikis or blogs, in order to make them more accessible. There are a lot of high quality open source software packages that aren’t used as much as they could be because getting them up and running can be a complex process. We want to change that!

Bitnami is reinventing the software application experience. Our solution allows users to launch and run popular server applications and development stacks in the cloud and anywhere else just with a single click. The simple elegance of our approach has won us fans all across the world. Mostly by word of mouth, Bitnami has grown to support over 1 million downloads each and every month. We have also become the largest source of applications for the leading cloud marketplaces including Amazon Web Services, Google Compute, Oracle Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure and VMware VCloud Air.

As the number of cloud partnerships we have grows, we’re looking for a driven, forward-thinking program manager to join our team and help us make these partnerships as successful as possible. The right candidate will be technical enough to understand cloud platforms, APIs and container technologies, but also have a sense for how to develop successful partnerships and a sense for new opportunities.

This position will report directly into our Chief Operating Officer and will offer broad visibility into our current and prospective cloud partnerships, business development processes, technical and business strategies. As such, it will offer significant opportunities for upward mobility.

We're profitable, growing and have an awesome, energetic and passionate team. Learn more about our team and what it's like to work at Bitnami by visiting the About Us and Careers pages on our website.
