Staff Product Manager - Security
About the role
Lambda's platform runs some of the most valuable digital assets in the world: frontier model weights and the training data behind them. AI labs need to know their weights are protected. Enterprises need to pass procurement and compliance reviews before a single GPU spins up. Security is not a feature we bolt on. It is the condition for these customers to run on Lambda at all.
Responsibilities
Own the Security Roadmap: Define and drive the product roadmap for the security surface of Lambda's platform, from customer signal through launch and iteration.
Define Identity and Access Management: Ship IAM and KMS capabilities such as single sign-on, role-based access control, and API credential management across the Lambda console and the Lambda Cloud API.
Harden Tenant Isolation: Set the product requirements for isolation across Lambda's multi-tenant GPU infrastructure, covering On-Demand GPU Instances and 1-Click Clusters.
Build Audit and Compliance Capabilities: Deliver the audit logging, evidence, and compliance features that enterprise procurement teams require to buy.
Partner with Security Engineering: Work with Lambda's Security Engineering and platform engineering teams to turn security requirements into shipped platform capabilities.
Unlock Revenue Without Adding Friction: Prioritize the security work that opens enterprise segments while preserving the fast self-serve experience researchers choose Lambda for.
Measure and Iterate: Instrument adoption of security features, learn from customer and sales feedback, and iterate until the capability closes deals.
Requirements
7+ years of product management experience, with at least part of that time on platform, infrastructure, or technical products
Turn data and customer signal into clear decisions about what to build next, and can show examples where your insight changed a roadmap
Win over engineers, designers, executives, and customers without formal authority, and bring them along on ideas they did not start with
Work with engineering to get products launched, measured, and improved, not just specified
Be technically fluent enough to go deep with security and platform engineers on topics like authentication, authorization, and isolation boundaries
Weigh security rigor against product friction and make the tradeoff explicit rather than hiding it
Write specs, narratives, and customer-facing docs that stand on their own without a meeting to explain them
Define iterative plans that move an organization from the current state towards the desired outcome
Qualifications
Great product managers at Lambda are defined by three things: insight, influence, and execution
Have shipped security products or security features, such as IAM, audit logging, or secrets management
Have worked with compliance programs such as SOC 2 (Service Organization Control 2)
Have built for cloud infrastructure, multi-tenant platforms, or GPU and machine learning infrastructure
Have sold into or built for enterprise procurement customers
Have experience partnering with a dedicated security engineering organization
