Lead Product Manager, Public Certificate Authority

Cloudflare; Greater London; Presencial; GBP 120.000 - 170.000; Tempo integral

Resumo da vaga

Cloudflare is seeking a Principal Product Manager for our Certificate Authority business to define product strategy, roadmap, and the commercial model for a new venture. You will work across product, engineering, security, compliance, legal, and operations to turn CA into a trusted, scalable service used by customers worldwide.

This early-days role requires comfort with high-consequence infrastructure, deep customer discovery, and bridging gaps between trust, uptime, and commercial adoption.

Qualificações

• 10+ years of product management experience building technical products for developers, security teams, infrastructure teams, enterprises, or cloud platforms.
• Experience with security, identity, infrastructure, or developer platform products where correctness, reliability, compliance, and trust are core product requirements.
• Working knowledge of PKI and certificate lifecycle management including TLS certificates, X.509, ACME, public and private CAs, revocation, Certificate Transparency, mTLS, HSMs, and enterprise certificate automation.

Responsabilidades

• Define the product strategy for Cloudflare's CA business across publicly trusted certificates, certificate lifecycle automation, ACME issuance, renewal workflows, revocation, Certificate Transparency, customer controls, developer experience, and integrations with Cloudflare's broader platform.
• Build for the whole Internet by understanding the needs of developers, site owners, platform teams, SaaS providers, enterprise security teams, infrastructure operators, and partners who depend on certificates for availability, security, and compliance.
• Make resilience a product principle. Help design product requirements that fail small, reduce customer blast radius, support automated recovery, and make certificate replacement fast enough to handle compliance issues, revocation events, or ecosystem incidents.
• Drive an ACME-first customer experience that makes it easy for users of existing free or automated CAs to adopt Cloudflare with minimal tooling changes.
• Partner closely with engineering on systems that manage certificate lifecycles, automate issuance and renewal, integrate with HSMs, protect keys, support auditability, and operate within strict reliability and correctness requirements.
• Partner with compliance, legal, security, and operations to ensure product decisions align with CA/Browser Forum Baseline Requirements, WebTrust audits, root store program policies, Certificate Policy and Certification Practice Statement commitments, and public incident response expectations.
• Own go-to-market strategy including packaging, pricing, launch sequencing, competitive positioning, customer segmentation, sales enablement, developer messaging, and adoption metrics.
• Represent the customer and the ecosystem in product decisions where trust, transparency, uptime, security, and commercial adoption must all be balanced.
• Work across Cloudflare product teams including SSL/TLS, Application Security, Zero Trust, Workers, Registrar, DNS, Load Balancing, SaaS products, and infrastructure teams that consume or expose certificate services.
• Help make Cloudflare Customer Zero by ensuring our own usage of the CA exercises the product at Cloudflare scale and informs the roadmap before customers depend on it.
