Senior AI Product Manager (Cloud WAF & API Security)
This job is no longer available and isn't accepting applications.
TLDR
Define WAAP roadmaps spanning shadow API discovery, behavioral anomaly detection, and cloud-native integrations.
- Lead the product strategy, vision, and roadmap for Cloud WAF and API Security (WAAP) capabilities, aligned with company goals, customer outcomes, and evolving attacker techniques.
- Own customer discovery and problem validation: engage enterprise security teams, platform teams, and developers to understand workflows, constraints, and adoption blockers across cloud environments.
- Drive a roadmap that addresses key WAAP areas such as:
- Cloud WAF policy and rule management, tuning, and false-positive reduction
- API discovery and inventory (including shadow/zombie APIs)
- API behavioral anomaly detection
- Auth and abuse patterns (e.g., broken auth, BOLA, scraping, credential stuffing) in partnership with bot/abuse controls
- Integrations with CI/CD, API gateways, ingress controllers, service mesh, and cloud-native tooling
- Observability and analytics (security visibility, attack forensics, risk posture)
- Own requirements and prioritize delivery; ensure crisp execution using SAFe/Agile best practices (backlog readiness, PI planning support, dependency management, clear acceptance criteria, outcome-based prioritization).
- Contribute to or drive Agile transformation efforts across teams: improve operating cadence, delivery predictability, cross-functional alignment, and measurable outcomes.
- Work closely with UX/UI to deliver intuitive workflows for both security and platform teams (policy authoring, onboarding, triage, tuning, and incident response).
- Drive end-to-end product delivery from concept to launch: user stories, validation, beta programs, release readiness, and launch execution.
- Define success metrics and iterate post-launch using data (adoption, efficacy, performance, cost signals, support escalations, retention/expansion).
- Collaborate with product marketing on positioning, messaging, and go-to-market planning for releases and major launches.
- Engage with customers, sales, and customer success to gather feedback, address concerns, and identify growth opportunities.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Business, or related field (MBA a plus).
- 5+ years of Product Management experience in cybersecurity or adjacent cloud infrastructure domains; experience in enterprise-grade products is strongly preferred.
- Cloud WAF / API Security experience with strong understanding of modern web and API threats (e.g., OWASP Top 10 and API Top 10), and practical awareness of how protection works in production environments.
- Strong technical foundation in cloud and application delivery concepts (e.g., Kubernetes/ingress, API gateways, microservices, CI/CD, observability, identity signals).
