ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Technical Product Owner to manage the strategy, roadmap, and adoption of enterprise cybersecurity platforms and developer security workflows.

The mandatory requirements are 5+ years of technical product ownership or management, AppSec/DevSecOps experience, technical fluency in code and APIs, autonomous product strategy execution, data-driven decision-making, cross-functional leadership, and upper-intermediate English. Software development or security architecture experience is a plus.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Product Strategy & Roadmap Ownership: Define and drive the multi-quarter roadmap for workstreams, aligning executive risk reduction goals with measurable developer adoption and workflow velocity.
• Developer Experience (DevEx) & Adoption: Treat security tooling as a product; design scanning engines (ASPM ingestion, AI-SDLC scanning) and developer portals that minimize developer friction and eliminate build blockers.
• Platform Architecture Collaboration: Partner directly with software engineers, cloud architects, and security researchers on API contracts, pipeline data flows, and automated policy modernization.
• Identity & Access Alignment: Collaborate with enterprise teams to integrate robust identity, role modeling (RBAC/ABAC), and authorization standards into developer platforms and artifact repositories.
• Cross-Functional Influence: Translate complex regulatory and cybersecurity policies into clear, user-centric feature specs and self-service automated workflows across global business units.

MUST HAVES

• You must be authorized to work for ANY employer in the US (e.g., Green card holders, TN visa holders, GC EAD, H4 EAD, U4U with EAD), as we are unable to sponsor or take over employment visa sponsorship at this time.
• 5+ Years in Technical Product Ownership or Management: Proven success driving strategy and delivery for cybersecurity products, developer platforms, or automated tooling from concept through broad adoption.
• Deep Application & Platform Security Domain: Direct, working knowledge of AppSec/DevSecOps workflows and tooling—including SAST, DAST, SCA, ASPM, vulnerability lifecycle triage, and CI/CD security gating.
• Hands-on Technical Fluency: Ability to read code, discuss system integrations, and evaluate API designs and data flows directly with engineering pods.
• Fully autonomous in driving product strategy from inception to adoption. Excels at data-driven decision-making and cross-functional leadership without requiring day-to-day direction.

NICE TO HAVES

• Prior professional experience as a software developer, DevSecOps engineer, or security solutions architect prior to moving into product management.
• Experience designing internal developer portals (IDPs), SRE/infrastructure tooling, or Golden Paths inside large, regulated enterprise environments.
• Direct exposure to enterprise SecOps platforms (e.g., SIEM, SOAR, CrowdStrike, Splunk) or AI-assisted development and remediation tooling.
• Software development or security architecture experience.

PERKS AND BENEFITS

• Professional growth : Mentorship, TechTalks, and personalized growth roadmaps.
• Competitive compensation : USD-based pay with education, fitness, and team activity budgets.
• Exciting projects : Modern solutions with Fortune 500 and top product companies.
• Flextime : Flexible schedule with remote and office options.
