- **Work type:** hybrid
- **Posted:** 2026-09-14

## Job description

Join our mission We're proud to work with many incredible companies, accelerating their ability to build their products. We've spent years watching talented engineering teams lose momentum to the same frustrating bottleneck: waiting. Waiting for CI to finish. Waiting for builds to complete. Waiting for tests to run. After experiencing this pain firsthand at companies of every size, we set out to build the developer infrastructure platform we'd always wanted to use. Something that would seamlessly integrate with our workflows and the tools teams already love—but make everything dramatically faster and more cost-effective. Today, we're already accelerating hundreds of companies around the world, helping them ship features instead of waiting for infrastructure. We've built something that feels almost magical in its simplicity: change your runs-on line, mount your toolchain cache directory and suddenly your builds are 5x faster.

## About the role

As a Technical Project Manager at Namespace, you'll drive technical projects from planning through execution, working closely with engineering teams to translate business goals into clear technical work, manage timelines and dependencies, and keep stakeholders aligned. You'll bring a strong technical background and experience working with software engineering and developer tools, allowing you to understand technical trade-offs, anticipate risks, and operate effectively alongside engineers.

Our culture We're looking for people with grit—people who push through ambiguity, take ownership, and keep going when things get hard. You're deeply curious, driven to understand how things work and how they can be improved. Most importantly, you have a strong bias to execution: you don't wait for perfect conditions, you ship, learn, and iterate quickly. If you care about building, moving fast, and making real impact, you'll fit right in.

## What you'll do

- Translate high-level business goals into clear technical tasks and project plans for engineering teams
- Create and maintain project documentation, managing timelines, budgets, scope, resources, and day-to-day priorities
- Anticipate technical obstacles, manage dependencies and risks, and ensure appropriate testing and quality standards
- Keep engineering teams, cross-functional stakeholders, vendors, and company leadership aligned on progress, priorities, and roadblocks
- Manage technical vendors and suppliers as part of project delivery

## What we're looking for

- Technical background with experience in software development, engineering, computer science, or a closely related field
- Proven experience managing technical projects, either in a dedicated technical project management role or as a significant part of an engineering or technical role
- Experience working closely with software engineering teams and a strong understanding of how engineering projects are planned, built, and shipped
- Familiarity with developer tools and modern software development workflows
- Ability to understand technical requirements, trade-offs, dependencies, and risks and translate them into clear project plans
- Strong ownership and ability to drive multiple stakeholders toward execution in a fast-moving environment

You can expect:

- Competitive salary and stock options
- Flexible working hours
- Market-leading parental leave

Life at Namespace Labs:

- We pride ourselves in being a small team of experts that can achieve a lot.
- We balance our long-term vision with short-term pragmatism.
- We believe in being fully transparent internally on how decisions are made, on how the company is doing, and we use that information to drive our decisions.

## About Namespace

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Namespace provides high-performance cloud compute and developer infrastructure that accelerates CI/CD, builds, tests, and development environments for engineering teams.
- **Entity Type**: Private (funded – Seed and Series A)
- **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, United States
- **Founded**: 2021–2022 (first seed round in 2022)
- **Founders**: Hugo (co‑founder & CEO); co‑founded by other former Google engineers (full names not publicly disclosed)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Developer infrastructure / Cloud compute for CI/CD and development workflows
- **Target customers**: B2B; fast‑moving engineering teams at companies of all sizes (SMB to enterprise)
- **Mission**: “Transform how great software is built — making development simple, lean, and focused on teams and applications.”

## Products & Services
- **Namespace Actions**: Drop‑in replacement GitHub Actions runners that deliver 2x–10x faster workflows using purpose‑built compute, built‑in caching, snapshotting, and full observability.
- **Devboxes**: Isolated, ephemeral cloud environments for AI coding agents, debugging (remote SSH/VNC), and ad‑hoc development – spun up in seconds.
- **Build Acceleration**: Remote caching and high‑performance compute for popular toolchains (Bazel, Nix, Turbo, Docker) to speed up builds and tests incrementally.
- **Container Registry**: Integrated, high‑performance private container registry for ephemeral runs, tests, and production.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation / Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Key Metrics**: Total disclosed funding ~$75,000 (Seed round, 2022); Series A led by New Enterprise Associates (amount undisclosed); Seed round (2024) led by Susa Ventures (amount undisclosed). Annual revenue not publicly available.
- **Notable Investors & Advisors**: New Enterprise Associates, Susa Ventures; advisors include Alex Schultz (CMO/VP Analytics @ Facebook), Jiten Vaidya (co‑founder Planetscale), Kevin Gibbs (CEO Terraton, ex‑CEO Quip), Spencer Kimball (CEO Cockroach Labs), Neha Narkhede (co‑founder Confluent), Bradley Horowitz, and others.
- **Growth Signals**: 21 employees (as of early 2025) with +15.4% monthly headcount growth; website traffic up 429% year‑over‑year; hundreds of companies already using the platform; 10 active job postings indicating expansion.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Purpose‑built infrastructure**: Designed and operated custom server racks and full‑stack compute/network/storage specifically for build and test workloads – not repurposed general‑purpose cloud. This yields measurably higher performance and cost efficiency.
- **Google‑level expertise**: Founded by engineers who built Boq, Google’s internal application platform used by Search, YouTube, Workspace, etc.
- **Seamless integration**: Works as a simple drop‑in replacement for GitHub Actions (change `runs-on`) without complex configuration.
- **Enterprise‑grade security**: SOC 2 Type 2 attested, SAML SSO, audit logs, SIEM integration, private endpoints, and fine‑grained access controls.

## Strategic Focus
- **Current priorities**: Accelerate adoption of Namespace Actions and Devboxes; expand enterprise sales; deepen capabilities for AI‑powered coding tools and multi‑platform development (macOS, Linux, ARM).
- **Direction for growth**: “Making building software seamless” – adding built‑in observability, workflow analytics, and advanced caching to eliminate waiting for builds and tests.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: “Love infrastructure and working with developers”; team of former Google engineers building the future of software development. Emphasis on shipping features instead of waiting for infrastructure.
- **Work model**: Offices in San Francisco (HQ) and Zurich, Switzerland; likely hybrid/remote‑friendly (job postings include US and remote locations like “US”).
- **Engineering & perks**: Small, fast‑growing team (21 people) with low hierarchy. Focus on high‑impact, low‑toil infrastructure work. Open positions span product engineering, infrastructure engineering, account executive roles.
