Senior Product Manager, Internet Map

About the role

Censys is hiring a Senior Product Manager to scale execution of the Censys Internet Map: the most continuously updated view of every asset, port, service, and certificate we can find across the public internet. Building it means running one of the largest internet-wide scanning operations in the world — 400+ protocols providing access to 3 trillion+ scans in our APIs, 10 petabytes+ of historical data, scanning 250 million+ IPs across 65K ports daily, resolving 8 billion+ names every 24 hours and tracking DNS at scale, tracking 18 billion+ certificates, fingerprinting 100K+ technologies behind what we find, enriching all of it with human readable labels, and third-party context so it becomes actionable intelligence rather than raw data.

This role is anchored in disciplined delivery, translating complex coverage and enrichment priorities into requirements engineering can build against. You'll define business and customer priorities, run the delivery cadence, and keep engineering and cross-functional stakeholders aligned on what's shipping and why it matters.

What You'll Do

• Internet Map Execution: Define the business and customer priorities behind what goes into the Internet Map and how it stays best-in-class. This is the lever that enables Censys to be successful across every product and every segment we operate in.
• Coverage: Define data collection work as detailed engineering requirements and acceptance criteria. Track coverage against baselines and identify gaps. Scope includes expanding IPv4/IPv6 scan scope, adding and prioritizing ports and protocols, increasing scan and DNS resolution frequency, and improving certificate and host discovery.
• Context: Define enrichment priorities based on customer and product needs: technology fingerprinting, risk scoring, and third-party data integrations. Evaluate external/third-party data sources for accuracy, coverage, and cost. Define metrics used to judge data and enrichment quality. Define the schema that structures how coverage and context data is represented. Write documentation that makes both understandable and usable internally and externally.
• Cross-Team Alignment And Execution: Drive cross-functional data prioritization across the Censys suite. Provide business priority input into sequencing for new protocols and enrichments. Ensure data investments align with company goals, resolve multi-product conflicts, and provide roadmap transparency to other product managers and engineering managers.
• Engineering partnership and data quality: Ensure engineering teams working on scanning infrastructure, data pipelines, and enrichment systems have well-defined requirements, clear acceptance criteria, and the context they need to make good architectural decisions. Track coverage and context quality against baselines. Identify gaps between current state and target, and translate findings into concrete engineering work to close them.
• Cross-functional enablement: Keep peer product teams (Exposure Management, Security Operations, Critical Infrastructure, Platform) and GTM (Sales, Marketing, Customer Success) current on what's shipping, what's changing, and what's coming next through regular updates, enablement sessions, and technical documentation.
