Responsibilities
Own the product vision, strategy, and roadmap across platform + workflows; make hard prioritization decisions and keep the team aligned
Serve as the company’s product leader and executive partner, working directly with the CEO/CTO/CSO/CRO/VP Marketing and leadership team on strategy, market direction, and business tradeoffs
Drive customer discovery (security + ops leaders, practitioners, buyers) and translate insights into crisp product requirements and outcomes
Define the platform roadmap for agent execution, orchestration, reliability, and enterprise-grade controls (guardrails, approvals, auditability, policy, observability)
Partner deeply with Engineering and Design to ship: write PRDs/specs, run product reviews, unblock execution, and ensure high-quality delivery
Reinvent the product operating system with generative AI
Evolve how product work gets done using AI: faster synthesis of research and customer feedback, automated/agent-assisted analysis of qualitative + quantitative signals, and clearer decision-making with less overhead
Prefer working prototypes and “showable” artifacts (code prototypes, interactive demos, thin specs, living docs) over process-heavy documentation—while maintaining enterprise-grade rigor where it matters (security, governance, reliability, auditability)
Build audience-specific narratives and materials (exec, buyer, practitioner, engineering, security/compliance) with tailored messaging that improves alignment and speeds decisions
Establish a clear product operating cadence (planning, roadmap reviews, launch readiness, metrics) that scales with the org
Align tightly with GTM on positioning, packaging, pricing inputs, and launch plans—ensuring the product story matches what the market is buying
Build and track product success metrics (adoption, retention, workflow completion, time-to-value, platform reliability, expansion signals)
Over time: hire and develop the product team, define roles/processes, and scale product leadership across the company
Qualification
Required
8+ years building product in B2B SaaS and/or enterprise software, with clear ownership of roadmap-to-shipping outcomes
Proven product leadership experience (e.g., Head of Product / VP Product / Director of Product / Group PM), including direct, ongoing partnership with C-level executives (CEO/CTO/CISO/COO) and the ability to drive alignment across Engineering and GTM
Experience building product in the security and/or DevOps domains—you can credibly engage with practitioners and buyers (SOC, IR, IAM, vuln mgmt, infra ops, CI/CD, etc.)
Hands-on experience building agentic, AI-enabled platforms and modern LLM-enabled product patterns (tool calling, retrieval/RAG, evals, reliability, human-in-the-loop design)
Comfort operating as the sole PM / player-coach while also serving as the company's product leader—setting direction, driving clarity, and making tradeoffs
Exceptional product judgment and communication: structured thinking, strong writing, crisp decision-making, and the ability to operate effectively amid ambiguity
Track record of strong cross-functional partnership (Engineering, Design, Security/Compliance, Sales, Customer Success)
You have strong opinions (and real practice) on how generative AI changes product work: how discovery is run, how decisions are made, what artifacts matter, how teams stay aligned, and how you increase velocity without sacrificing quality
You're comfortable getting “hands-on” with modern tools—whether that's quickly producing prototypes, iterating on workflows, or building lightweight systems for feedback and analytics—so the team can move faster and learn more
Preferred
Experience shipping on-prem / self-managed enterprise software (including regulated or constrained environments)
Built or owned platforms with enterprise governance controls (RBAC/permissions, audit trails, policy/approvals, compliance workflows)
Experience in or selling to regulated sectors (finance, healthcare, government, critical infrastructure)
Prior work on products involving integration ecosystems (connectors, SDKs, API platforms), including quality, versioning, and operational support
Experience with evaluation/measurement for LLM/agent behavior (quality metrics, safety, regression testing, reliability at scale)
Ability to prototype in code (or closely partner with engineers to do so) to accelerate iteration and learning
