Job Summary

The Senior Product Manager, Cloud & Infrastructure  Security, owns the product strategy for Equinix’s  cloud and container security capabilities. The role  spans three product areas: cloud security posture and  governance, runtime and container protection, and infrastructure and IaC security. The PM partners  closely with cloud platform engineers, developers,  and security operations — ensuring controls are  effective and practical to adopt at scale.

Responsibilities

Vision & Roadmap: Own the roadmap across  cloud posture management, runtime and container security, and infrastructure security controls. Keep priorities tied to business risk and engineering capacity.
• Product Ownership: Maintain a clear, actionable backlog for each product area. 
Translate security requirements into work engineering teams can execute, and track outcomes against defined goals.
• Engineering Partnership: Work with platform and infrastructure leads to embed security into developer workflows — pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, and container delivery — without unnecessary friction.
• Stakeholder Management: Represent cloud security priorities across InfoSec, platform engineering, and business planning. Serve as the primary point of contact for questions and investment decisions in this space.
• Emerging Capabilities: Lead early-stage work on new capabilities, including container image integrity and admission control. Define requirements, set success criteria, and manage the path from proof-of-concept to production.

Leadership Characteristics
• Thinks in Systems: Designs controls that work consistently across a multi-cloud environment and on-prem infrastructure — not one-off fixes for individual teams.
• Balances Ideal and Practical: Makes clear tradeoffs between security coverage and developer experience. Keeps a prioritized backlog that reflects what engineering can actually ship.
• Communicates Across Audiences: Explains technical topics plainly to non-technical stakeholders, and translates business risk into requirements engineers can act on.

Knowledge and Experience
• Experience: 5–10+ years in technical product management, with direct experience owning security products in cloud or infrastructure environments.
• Cloud & Container Security: Solid understanding of cloud security posture 
management, cloud configuration policy enforcement, container and Kubernetes security, IaC scanning, and runtime workload protection.
• Developer Workflows: Understands how security fits into CI/CD pipelines, container registries, and infrastructure-as-code delivery. Can work with engineering teams to integrate controls without disrupting how they build.
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Track record of aligning engineering, security operations, and business stakeholders on a shared roadmap in a large, complex organization.

Skills and Attributes
• Technical Depth: Comfortable going deep on how a capability works — from misconfiguration detection to container admission control — and translating that understanding into product decisions.
• Clear Communication: Writes and speaks plainly. Can make a complex security concept understandable to a business leader without losing the substance.
• Ownership Mindset: Takes accountability for outcomes. Follows through on commitments and flags risks early.
