Role Overview

We are seeking a strategic and customer-focused Director of Product Management to lead the Examination & Analysis domain across our digital forensics portfolio.

This role is responsible for defining and driving the vision, strategy, and execution for forensic examination and investigative analysis workflows across desktop, cloud, hybrid, and platform-enabled environments.

The ideal candidate brings strong product leadership experience, deep customer empathy, and the ability to align cross-functional teams around a shared strategic direction. This leader will help evolve the portfolio toward more connected workflows, shared capabilities, and scalable analysis experiences while partnering closely with centralized AI leadership to apply AI in ways that meaningfully improve examiner and investigator outcomes.

Reporting to the VP of Product Management, this role will lead a team of Product Managers and collaborate closely with Engineering, UX, GTM, Customer Success, and executive leadership to deliver impactful customer and business outcomes.

Indicators of Success

We're looking for someone who checks off most, but not all, of the boxes listed in "skills and experiences". It's more important to us to find candidates who can display indicators of success through skills they have developed and experiences they have been a part of, than to find folks who have "been there, done that". We want to be part of your development journey, and we'll learn as much from you as you learn from us.

If you're within a comfortable travel distance to one of our offices, you'll occasionally join us in person.

These in-person moments help us build stronger connections, spark new ideas, and celebrate our successes together. Most days, you can choose what works best for you, while staying in tune with your team's goals.

We're excited to welcome you to our team and look forward to achieving great things together - both in the office and wherever you work best!
