• Become an expert in pentesting best practices and discuss product details with developers, product designers, security operations, pentesters, customers and sales prospects.
• Define and track success measures for each product, interpret data into actionable conclusions and new hypotheses.
• Lead Go‑to‑Market readiness: partner with Product Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success to orchestrate successful feature launches; develop launch strategies, internal training materials, and customer‑facing collateral.
• Maintain technical fluency in modern cybersecurity tools (vulnerability management, offensive security platforms) and evaluate how they function within a customer’s security environment to inform product development.

Requirements

• 8+ years of Product Management experience.
• 3+ years of experience in cybersecurity tools (vulnerability management or offensive security platforms), with a demonstrated ability to discover new opportunities and then define and deliver products.
