About the Role

Extreme Networks is building the next generation of autonomous cloud networking platforms for the enterprise. Identity is central to this transformation: it is the trust fabric that enables human operators and autonomous agents to safely access, configure, and manage enterprise networks at scale.

What You'll Own

• Platform Identity Architecture & Governance
• Define the enterprise identity strategy for Extreme Platform ONE, serving human operators AND autonomous agents in a hybrid operational model
• Create architectural standards, governance rules, and cross-team enforcement mechanisms for all identity-impacting changes
• Ensure zero unplanned cross-product identity regressions; own PSIRT escalation response and remediation roadmaps
• Agent-Enabled Identity Model Design and Evolution
• Design the identity model that enables agents to work autonomously on specific tasks while enforcing strict boundaries: capability binding, intent constraints, token lifecycle, graduated trust, and escalation thresholds
• Partner with AI platform leadership to ensure agents can operate autonomously safely, and humans retain full visibility and control
• Enterprise Identity Capabilities & Roadmap
• Own the product roadmap for identity capabilities: provisioning, token lifecycle, audit trails, API scoping, multi-tenant isolation, autonomous agent execution audit (what did agents do, why, did they stay in bounds, what escalated to humans)
• Translate customer requirements, competitive intelligence, and platform constraints into clear, prioritized capabilities
• Communicate roadmap clearly to customers, sales, engineering, and leadership
• Product Execution
• Write clear product requirements and user stories for identity capabilities that serve humans and enable agents to work within scoped autonomy
• Collaborate with engineering and design solutions that require deep architectural understanding of human-agent boundaries
• Coordinate phased rollout and adoption strategies (beta programs, feature flags, rollback readiness, escalation testing)
• Own product lifecycle: from validation → design → execution → adoption → measurement
• Customer Success & Enterprise Positioning
• Be the voice of the customer on all things identity & access control
• Conduct discovery with large enterprises across different verticals to understand which operational tasks they trust agents with today, which they plan to delegate, and which will always require human judgment
• Build trust through radical transparency and human control: customers must understand exactly what agents can do, what stays human-only, where boundaries are, and how to override/escalate
• Cross-Functional Orchestration
• Coordinate identity roadmap dependencies across platform, infrastructure, security, and AI/agent teams
• Ensure identity governance is the control mechanism that enforces which tasks agents can execute autonomously and which require human approval

Required Skills & Experience

• Must-Have: 7+ years Product Management experience in enterprise SaaS, networking, security, or platform infrastructure roles
• Deep IAM/Identity expertise: OAuth 2.0, SAML, OIDC, token lifecycle, RBAC, ABAC, multi-tenant boundary enforcement, audit trails
• Platform product management: You've shipped products where cross-team governance mattered and architectural decisions had wide impact
• Architectural thinking: You can read technical specs, understand distributed system tradeoffs, and translate between engineering and business language
• Agenic systems knowledge: Understanding of how autonomous agents operate within task-scoped boundaries. Familiar with concepts like capability binding, intent constraints, graduated trust, behavior drift detection, human escalation
• Enterprise customer fluency: You understand large-organization compliance needs, audit requirements, and how enterprises operate networks
• Security/compliance: Experience with IAM platforms (Okta, CyberArk, Microsoft Entra); familiar with compliance frameworks (SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, FedRAMP)
• SaaS scale: Experience with building products that scale to millions of users/devices and thousands of enterprise tenants
