• Lead cross-functional initiatives across Engineering, Design, Security, Legal, Compliance, Support, and GTM teams to deliver governance capabilities that serve the needs of the world’s largest enterprises and highly regulated industries.
• Build the governance foundation for human and AI agents by developing policy controls, auditability, data governance, and administrative capabilities that enable safe, transparent, and compliant AI at scale.
• Drive strategic investments that improve the reliability, operability, and scalability of critical governance infrastructure while reducing operational burden for customers and internal teams.
• Partner with Security and Compliance to anticipate emerging regulations and translate them into platform capabilities that accelerate enterprise adoption and strengthen customer trust.
• Define measurable business outcomes and success metrics across enterprise trust, governance adoption, operational efficiency, and platform reliability, using data and AI to prioritize investments and guide execution.

About you

• Demonstrates curiosity about AI tools and emerging technologies, with a willingness to learn and leverage them to enhance productivity, collaboration, or decision-making.
• 6+ years of experience in Product Management, with deep expertise in identity/authentication systems, security, regulatory compliance, or B2B enterprise platform solutions.
• Highly comfortable modeling complex data relationships, managing integration complexity, and translating technical protocols into clear, holistic UX flows.
• Experienced in owning strategy for problem spaces that require coordination across multiple teams, evaluating competing investment options, and anticipating market shifts or security threats ahead of results.
• Proven ability to build durable alignment across teams by navigating disagreement, resolving conflicts, and leading executive-facing reviews and discussions.
• Skilled at orchestrating delivery across multiple teams, thoughtfully sequencing platform initiatives, and prioritizing high-craft MVPs.
• Passionate about mentoring other PMs, raising the bar for product craft across teams, and evangelizing PM best practices throughout the R&D organization.
