Job description

We’re a product-first team on a mission to help grow the cybersecurity culture

We want to instill cybersecurity good practices to employees in a way that’s actually effective, and entertaining enough so that employees don’t feel like they’re working. Think Duolingo but for cybersecurity.

We created a platform to easily rollout a cybersecurity awareness program: the platform sends chat-based 4-minutes long courses to teams. Following the courses, the other side of the platform simulates phishing attacks, to prepare employees to face hackers, but in a safe environment.

Created in 2020, Riot has raised $45m with leading investors (Y Combinator, Left Lane, Base10, Funders Club and First Capital) and is now protecting more than 2,000,000 employees in over 2,000 companies (including Intercom, Deel, and Deezer) all over the world.

Cybersecurity is everywhere. It’s impacting everyone, everyday, and it’s becoming the number one risk to any organization, whether it’s a small business or a big firm. Yet, the cybersecurity culture in most companies is a disaster. Hackers are leveraging this by targeting the weakest link: the employees. We’re on a mission to fix that.

You will join the Product team as a Product Manager focused on Discovery, innovation and business impact. You will own your product end-to-end, exploring new opportunities, shaping strategy, and turning ideas into market-ready value.

We are not looking for an execution-driven PM, but for a product manager owner, innovator and strategist. Discovery and innovation are at the core of this role.

What you will do

• Product strategy, innovation & ownership : Own product vision, strategy and roadmap, explore new opportunities, shape bold product directions, and be accountable for business outcomes from discovery to market success.
• Discovery & innovation-driven product management (≈80%) : Lead a continuous discovery and innovation process: user interviews, trend and market exploration, hypothesis testing, prototyping and validation of new product concepts before delivery.
• Business mindset & go-to-market : Drive product decisions with a strong business lens, including monetization, pricing, positioning, sales enablement and go-to-market strategy to ensure adoption and revenue impact.
• Delivery collaboration (≈20%) : Translate validated discoveries into outcome-driven initiatives, collaborate closely with engineering and design, while relying on the Engineering Manager to own execution and delivery.

Who you are

• 2–10 years of experience in fast-paced, growth environments (not large, slow-moving organizations).
• Skills and impact matter more than formal Product Manager titles.
• Strong discovery instincts: you naturally engage with users and markets.
• Comfortable exploring ambiguity, proposing bold ideas, and shaping undefined problem spaces.
• Able to balance creativity, intuition and data in product decisions.
• Strong business mindset, with an interest in value creation and monetization.
• High ownership, autonomy and accountability.
• Motivated by Riot’s mission (cybersecurity expertise can be learned).
• You don’t need to be an expert on cybersecurity, but you need to be motivated by the mission
• You have a full professional proficiency in English and native in French
• Vous êtes basé à Paris ou vous êtes prêt à déménager
  It will be a cultural fit if
• Vous êtes un executeur: not afraid to get your hands dirty and get things done.
• Vous avez des standards élevés: expect performance to be nothing short of the best.
• Vous êtes un enthousiaste chez la course: exhibit passion and excitement over work.

Why join us at Riot

• Join a financially-healthy company: we’re financially strong and highly capital-efficient. Fundraising fuels our momentum, enabling us to scale faster and unlock new growth opportunities.
• Contribute to a fast-growing startup with a strong vision and high ambitions, backed by clear business goals. We’ve tripled our revenue over the past two years, and we plan to grow from €20M to €40M ARR in 2026.
• Experience the energy of a collaborative team in our modern and cosy office located in heart of Paris: République / Canal Saint-Martin

Recruitment process

• Screening interview with our Talent Acquisition Manager (30’)
• Hiring Manager interview with our CTO and Founder, Louis, (1h)
• Onsite case study with Louis and your future manager (1h30)
• Fit interview with our FOunder, Ben (1h)

At RIOT, we believe that diversity drives innovation and inclusion fosters belonging. We are committed to building a team that reflects a wide range of perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences. We welcome candidates from all walks of life and are dedicated to creating an environment where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to thrive.
