Overview

We're looking for an Outbound Product Manager who will be the market-facing advocate for GitHub's security portfolio. You'll translate deep product knowledge into compelling narratives for every audience — from developers to CISOs — and build GitHub's presence as the recognized leader in agentic security.

You’ll partner with Product Management for product depth, Product Marketing for launch coordination, and Sales for field insight, but your primary job is outward-facing: advocating for the product, translating its value across audiences, competing in the market, and shaping the public narrative.

Your role will focus on raising GitHub’s security profile, creating competitive narratives, representing GitHub in industry engagements, and driving public content that tells the story of the platform’s transition to native, AI-powered security.

Responsibilities

• Translate GitHub’s agentic security platform story into audience‑specific value propositions, articulating risk reduction and compliance for CISOs, platform consolidation and architecture for CTOs, workflow integration and developer experience for engineers, and ROI and cost efficiency for CFOs.
• Become a recognized voice in the application security and developer security community. Build a personal and product advocacy presence online, publishing original perspectives, engaging with practitioners and security leaders, shaping industry conversations, and positioning GitHub as the trusted authority on where AppSec is heading.
• Build and deliver compelling competitive narratives that demystify competitor claims with data, benchmarks, and real‑world customer evidence. Translate GitHub’s integrated platform advantage into public‑facing content that shifts market perception.
• Represent GitHub’s security vision at EBCs, analyst briefings, industry events, and customer advisory boards. Scale the EBC and analyst engagement programs to match the size and ambition of the business.
• Enable the sales organization as new capabilities launch — connecting product innovations to the broader platform story and equipping the field with the narrative, demos, and technical depth they need to position GitHub’s security portfolio effectively in customer conversations.
• Drive the public narrative around GitHub Advanced Security’s transformation into an agentic security platform, creating a sustained stream of technical content (blog posts, demos, deep dives, customer stories, open source proof points) that articulates how security shifts from a standalone toolset into a native, AI‑powered layer within the developer workflow.
• Synthesize market signals from customer engagements, competitive developments, and field intelligence into actionable insights that influence product roadmap priorities and go‑to‑market strategy.

Qualifications

• Required: 8+ years experience in product, service, project/program management, software development, product design, or related field.
• Required: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Business, or related field AND 6+ years of the same experience, OR equivalent experience.
• Required: Experience creating high‑quality technical content (blog posts, demos, presentations, technical deep dives) at a sustained cadence.
• Required: Experience in developer tools, developer platforms, DevOps, or application security product domains.
• Required: Experience with AI/ML‑powered product go‑to‑market, particularly in developer or security workflows.
• Preferred: Hands‑on experience with application security concepts and tools (e.g., static analysis, secret detection, software composition analysis).
• Preferred: Track record of building personal or product thought leadership through public content, social media, and conference speaking.
• Preferred: Experience developing competitive positioning against well‑funded competitors in fast‑moving markets.
• Preferred: Experience communicating technical products to mixed audiences, tailoring the same product story for practitioners, security leaders, and executive buyers.
• Preferred: Experience presenting at industry events, executive briefings, or analyst engagements.

Compensation Range

The base salary range for this job is USD $140,400.00 – $372,300.00 per year. Benefits and additional rewards (annual bonus, stock, and potential sales incentives) are included based on individual impact and role scope.
