ABOUT RETOOL
Nearly every company in the world runs on custom software: Gartner estimates that up to 50% of all code is written for internal use. This is the operational software for refunding orders, underwriting loans, onboarding employees, analyzing transactions, and providing customer support. But most companies don’t have adequate resources to properly invest in these tools, leading to a lot of old and clunky internal software or, even worse, users still stuck in manual and spreadsheet flows.
At Retool, we’re on a mission to bring good software to everyone. We’re building a new type of development platform that combines the benefits of traditional software development with a drag-and-drop UI editor and AI, making it dramatically faster to build internal tools. We believe that the future of software development lies in abstracting away the tedious and repetitive tasks developers waste time on, while creating reusable components that act as a force multiplier for future developers and projects. The result is not just productivity, but good software by default. And that’s a mission worth striving for.
Today, our customers span from small startups building their first operational tools to Fortune 500 companies building mission-critical apps for thousands of users across their business. Interested in joining us? Let us know!
WHAT YOU’LL DO
We’re looking for a product leader to help define and grow Retool’s enterprise product offering. This role will explore how we extend our platform to better serve larger, more complex organizations and regulated industries, shaping how customers deploy, manage, and scale Retool across their businesses. You’ll be responsible for setting direction in an evolving product area, balancing vision with pragmatism, and navigating a fast-changing market landscape.
You’ll work closely with engineering, design, go-to-market, and leadership teams to bring clarity to ambiguous problems, identify the right bets to make, and drive execution from concept through adoption. The scope is intentionally broad, spanning product strategy, roadmap definition, customer discovery, GTM alignment, and building the foundations for scale. We’re seeking someone comfortable operating in open-ended spaces, who can combine curiosity, synthesis, and conviction to shape where we go next.
WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH
You’ll be joining the product team at Retool, working alongside engineers, designers, and GTM leaders who are passionate about redefining how software is built and run. The enterprise team is focused on making Retool the platform of choice for IT and platform teams, ensuring that we meet the needs of organizations that operate at scale and in complex environments. The team is small but growing quickly, with a mix of people who have built at fast-scaling startups and large tech companies, and we’re motivated by the challenge of bringing modern developer platforms to industries where internal software has historically lagged behind.
IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL
- Develop a clear point of view on the enterprise software market and Retool’s role in it
- Define the product strategy and roadmap for Retool’s enterprise capabilities, making deliberate tradeoffs about where to play
- Partner with engineering and design to translate ambiguous problems into clear product bets, driving them from concept through adoption
- Work with GTM teams to position Retool’s enterprise offering, craft narratives that resonate with CIOs and IT leaders, and ensure alignment on launch and adoption goals
- Build strong feedback loops with customers to validate ideas, measure impact, and continuously refine Retool’s enterprise platform
- Set the foundations for scale: establish the metrics, processes, and team structure needed to grow this product area into a core pillar of Retool’s business
THE SKILLSET YOU'LL BRING
- Experience defining and shipping products in ambiguous, fast-changing markets, ideally 10+ years of experience
- Strong synthesis skills: you can parse a noisy competitive landscape, distill customer needs, and articulate a crisp strategy
- Execution focus: you know how to balance vision with pragmatism, setting a roadmap that drives meaningful outcomes in 6–12 month windows
- Comfort with deeply technical products and customers; you’re able to collaborate with engineers and speak the language of developers while also influencing non-technical stakeholders
- Curiosity and conviction: you seek input widely but aren’t afraid to take a stand and drive a decision forward
- Collaborative leadership style, with the ability to rally cross-functional teams and inspire confidence at both the tactical and executive level
