If you're passionate about tackling meaningful challenges alongside talented team members committed to helping each other succeed, all while having lots of fun, we want to hear from you. We offer competitive benefits and salaries, personal and professional development opportunities, flexibility, and much more!

We are seeking a strategic and visionary Senior Product Manager to join our team. In this role, you will be responsible for driving product strategy and executing a compelling roadmap for Managed File Transfer brand.

You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to shape and oversee product capabilities that address evolving market needs. Your deep understanding of the cybersecurity landscape, customer expectations, and competitive dynamics will be critical to success.

Leveraging product management best practices, market insights, Voice of Customer, and a strong technical foundation, you will help identify the problems worth solving and translate them into innovative solutions. This role requires someone who is equally comfortable asking "Should we build this at all?" as they are determining "What should we build next?"\

The ideal candidate brings deep experience in Managed File Transfer (MFT), secure data movement, and enterprise software, along with proven experience taking new products, major capabilities, or market initiatives from concept through commercialization and iteration.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Develop, shape, maintain, and execute roadmap initiatives for Fortra's MFT brand, partnering with internal stakeholders to ensure future investments align with Fortra's overall strategy.
• Lead discussions with internal and external stakeholders to validate market problems, understand customer needs, and uncover product gaps and opportunities.
• Own and lead Product Councils with cross-functional leaders to drive alignment on product strategy, priorities, and roadmap.
• Conduct market and competitive research, including analysis of market size, opportunity, buyer segments, competitive offerings, whitespace, and adjacent opportunities.
• Develop business cases using market evidence and Voice of Customer insights to identify and prioritize market problems worth solving.
• Oversee and influence the end-to-end product lifecycle, including discovery, validation, design, development, delivery, commercialization, and iteration.
• Evaluate new product and market opportunities with a zero-to-one mindset, including determining whether an opportunity warrants investment before defining what should be built.
• Collaborate with customer-facing teams to maintain strong customer relationships, proactively gather feedback, manage expectations, and inform product roadmap decisions.
• Partner closely with Engineering and Architecture to communicate product vision, strategy, customer needs, and market problems while evaluating technical feasibility and trade-offs.
• Establish product priorities and plans based on market and business data, customer insights, strategic objectives, and stakeholder input.
• Partner with UX/UI Design to refine product and feature designs, socialize concepts, and incorporate feedback.
• Collaborate with Product Marketing and Technical Training on product development and release activities to ensure internal teams are prepared for successful launches.
• Analyze technical, customer, and business data to measure product performance and influence future product decisions.
• Monitor developments across cybersecurity, MFT, secure data exchange, cloud technologies, automation, and adjacent markets to inform product strategy and planning.
• Translate effectively across audiences, from detailed technical conversations with Engineering and Architecture to product positioning with Marketing and Sales, customer conversations, and concise recommendations to senior leadership.
• Model a positive and inclusive workplace where diverse talents and perspectives are welcomed, developed, and reflected in our work.
• Foster a workplace grounded in high moral, ethical, and legal standards that promotes respect, innovation, and creativity.
• Continuously refine product management and business analysis processes to improve efficiency, decision-making, and outcomes.

QUALIFICATIONS

• 5-8 years of product management experience, with demonstrated experience in B2B technology, enterprise software, cybersecurity, or related markets.
• Deep experience with Managed File Transfer (MFT), secure data movement, or closely related enterprise technologies.
• Several years of experience working with enterprise MFT technologies. Experience with GoAnywhere or Globalscape is valuable but not required; experience with competing MFT platforms is equally relevant.
• Proven zero-to-one product experience, including taking a new enterprise product, major capability, or market initiative from concept through discovery, validation, MVP, commercialization, and iteration.
