Technical Program Manager - Member of Technical Staff

Responsibilities

• Own Delivery of In-Product AI Threat Defenses
• Lead execution of runtime threat defense capabilities embedded directly into Copilot execution paths, not layered on externally.
• Drive delivery of detection, prevention, and containment mechanisms that operate synchronously and adaptively as agents reason and act.
• Ensure defenses are designed as control systems with clear signals, enforcement points, and feedback loops.
• Translate Threat Models into Executable Systems
• Take emerging and ambiguous agentic AI threat models—including misuse, escalation, and information-flow risks—and convert them into concrete engineering plans.
• Partner with security engineers and researchers to translate offensive security insights and red-team findings into production features.
• Make judgment calls about enforcement boundaries, degradation strategies, and isolation guarantees.
• Drive Cross-Cutting Technical Execution
• Coordinate delivery across security engineering, AI research, platform/runtime teams, and Copilot product surfaces.
• Own dependency management, sequencing, and delivery risk for systems that are tightly coupled and cannot be built independently.
• Resolve technical and organizational tradeoffs where ownership boundaries are unclear and failure modes are novel.
• Ensure Operability at Runtime
• Define what “working” means for threat defenses: detection quality, false-positive tolerance, performance impact, and blast-radius containment.
• Ensure defenses are measurable, testable, and observable in production.
• Lead learning loops from live incidents, near-misses, and adversarial testing back into system design.

Qualifications

• Required Qualifications:
• Bachelor's Degree AND 6+ years experience in engineering, product/technical program management, data analysis, or product development
• OR equivalent experience.
• 3+ years of experience managing cross-functional and/or cross-team projects.
• Preferred Qualifications:
• Bachelor's Degree AND 12+ years experience engineering, product/technical program management, data analysis, or product development
• OR equivalent experience.
• Proven ability to lead execution in high-ambiguity environments where requirements, threats, and system behavior evolve rapidly.
• Solid systems thinking: ability to reason about execution paths, failure modes, and adversarial behavior.
• Track record of making sound technical tradeoffs and shipping durable solutions without relying on heavy process.
• Background in security engineering, distributed systems, applied research, or ML systems prior to or alongside TPM work.
• Experience delivering runtime detection, abuse prevention, or adaptive enforcement systems.
• Familiarity with agentic AI systems, LLM-based products, or non-deterministic execution environments.
• Experience partnering closely with offensive security or red-team functions.
• Demonstrated ability to translate research, prototypes, or threat models into production-grade systems.
• Solid analytical skills, including working with telemetry, signals, and feedback loops.
