Descrição da oferta de emprego

the company is growing. We’ve surpassed $400M in ARR and we’re continuing to accelerate, earning a spot on the Forbes Cloud 100 for four years in a row and teaming up with iconic partners like Oracle Red Bull Racing.

About the company

At the company, we’re building the foundation for a safe, productive digital future. Our mission is to unleash employee productivity without compromising security by ensuring every identity is authentic, every application sign-in is secure, and every device is trusted. We innovated the market‑leading enterprise password manager and pioneered Unified Access Management, a new cybersecurity category built for the way people and AI agents work today. As one of the most loved brands in cybersecurity, we take a human‑centric approach in everything from product strategy to user experience. Over 180,000 businesses, from Fortune 100 leaders to the world’s most innovative AI companies, trust the company to help their teams securely adopt the SaaS and AI tools they need to do their best work.

If you're excited about the opportunity to contribute to the digital safety of millions, to work alongside a team of curious, driven individuals, and to solve hard problems in a fast‑paced, dynamic environment, then we want to hear from you. Come join us and help shape a safer, simpler digital future.

Security isn't a feature at the company. It is the product. We're looking for a Principal Product Manager to shape security strategy across the company, working with Security Engineering, who hold one of the highest technical bars in the industry, and with the product teams building everything our customers touch.

You’ll be the bridge. You’ll understand cryptographic and architectural detail well enough to earn the trust of our security engineers, and you'll translate what matters into clear priorities for feature teams. Just as importantly, you'll bring a deep respect for the customer: a security control nobody can stand to use makes everyone less safe. You'll help us find the design that's both rigorous and usable, and have the credibility to say so in a room full of experts

What you'll do

• Partner with product teams on security early. Work with PMs and feature teams to understand their upcoming roadmaps, identify security requirements and threat‑model implications before designs are locked, and make sure those needs are visible, prioritized, and resourced.

• Align Security Engineering with product strategy. Translate feature‑team needs into prioritized security work, and make Security Engineering's priorities legible to the rest of the company so tradeoffs are made in the open.

• Own an independent security roadmap. Set direction for platform‑level security investments, such as key management and recovery, the cryptographic foundations of our zero‑knowledge architecture, authentication, and our long‑term readiness for post‑quantum cryptography.

• Lead our strategy for the AI era. Define how the company approaches agentic access to credentials, secrets for non‑human identities and AI agents, and the trust models emerging around tools and protocols like MCP.

• Balance risk and usability with evidence. Help security engineers weigh real‑world risk against user friction, using adoption, support, and telemetry data alongside threat models. Shipping with accepted, documented residual risk is sometimes the right call, and you'll help us make and defend those decisions.

• Represent the company to the security community. Engage with security researchers and our bug bounty program, speak at conferences, and contribute to the wider conversation about where credential security is heading.

• Raise the bar for product work. Coach PMs on security thinking, challenge assumptions constructively, and set the standard for how security‑critical product work gets done.

Our philosophy on Product consists of five core pillars:

• Focus and execution: Can you ship quickly and measure results?

• Customer empathy: Are you motivated first and foremost to solve customer problems?

• Effective communication: Can you bring the entire organization, horizontally and vertically, along on the journey?

• Go to market: Can you understand and drive business outcomes through product decisions?

• Technology: Articulating how our technology beats our competitors

Product Managers play a highly visible role at the company and are critical to the development and execution of our product strategy. As PMs, we are responsible for setting and championing a high bar for our products. At the Principal level, you also set the standard for how product work gets done. You coach, you challenge assumptions, and you make the whole team better. You must excel at prioritization, collaboration, and communication, while holding yourself and others accountable for measuring quality and business results. You will work with Engineering, Design, Security Research, and GTM teams to ensure every decision we make as a product is grounded in our commitment to verifiable security.

What we're looking for

10+ years of product management experience, including significant time on security‑critical products or platforms in a SaaS environment. We'll also strongly consider exceptional candidates with equivalent depth, such as security engineers or researchers who moved into product.

• Deep, demonstrable knowledge of security fundamentals: cryptography, authentication protocols, identity and access management, zero‑knowledge and end‑to‑end encrypted system design, and threat modeling.

• Fluency in the credential and identity landscape, including passkeys, WebAuthn/FIDO, and the standards shaping how people sign in.

• A track record of earning credibility with security engineering teams, not just working alongside them.

• The ability to read and reason through technical specifications, security audits, and cryptographic design documents.

• Experience making and defending risk‑based tradeoffs, and explaining them clearly to engineers, executives, and customers.

• A history of shipping security features that users actually adopt, and of using friction and adoption data to improve them.

• Experience setting strategy at the platform or infrastructure level, and influencing roadmaps you don't own without formal authority.

• Communication that scales from a security research paper to an executive briefing without losing precision in either direction.

• A strong point of view on how the security landscape is shifting, and the ability to connect it to concrete roadmap decisions.

Strong plus

Standing in the security community, through conference talks, publications, research, open‑source work, or standards participation.

• Hands‑on experience with AI security: agent identity and authorization, prompt injection, secrets management for automated systems.

• Experience with compliance and certification regimes such as SOC 2, FedRAMP, or FIPS.

• Prior work in vulnerability disclosure, incident response, or threat intelligence that gives you a practitioner's intuition.

• Experience running or working closely with a bug bounty program or researcher community.

What you can expect

Working with a passionate, highly motivated Product and Security team that holds an exceptional bar and genuinely cares about getting it right.

• A direct line to decisions that shape the security architecture millions of people depend on every day

• Empowerment to set long‑term security product strategy and drive it through execution

• A culture where technical depth is respected, tradeoffs are named honestly, and shipping the right thing matters more than shipping fast

• A collaborative environment where the best argument wins, regardless of title
