Job Summary

About our team

Console, a Palo Alto Networks company, is building an AI-native platform for enterprise service management. We bring together service management, automation, knowledge, access and enterprise data so teams can understand what is happening across their organization, resolve issues and requests and automate work across the systems they already use.

About the role

ITSM is Console’s core product, delivering agentic service desk, workflow automation, and knowledge management for leading enterprises. Console disrupted this legacy industry by asking the question “what does an ITSM look like if AI agents can solve a majority of tickets before they ever reach a human?” We succeed and the product is rolled out company-wide with customers like Databricks, Webflow, and Chime to run all of their internal support and operations. Now, we are looking for a Staff PM to define and launch the next iteration of this product - to make Console the backbone for all operations in a 100,000 person organization. To be successful in this role, a product leader will need to apply fresh product thinking, deep user empathy, and the latest AI advancements to true enterprise-scale problems.
