• Drive product improvements through direct engagement with developers, SREs, infrastructure teams, and platform owners to understand pain points and adoption barriers

Cross‑Functional Alignment & Scaling

• Represent InfoSec Product Management in executive forums, clearly communicating roadmap progress, technical risks, and investment needs

Leadership Qualities

• Strong people leader who develops high‑performance PM teams

• Builder mindset — comfortable in architecture and implementation discussions

• Systems thinker who designs scalable, global platforms

• Outcome‑oriented with a focus on developer experience, security posture, and resilience

Qualifications

• 12+ years in product management, security engineering, or platform engineering, including 5+ years leading product teams
