Check Point Software
Senior AI Product Manager (Cloud WAF & API Security)
This job is no longer available and isn't accepting applications.
TLDR
Own the Cloud WAF and API Security roadmap, from API discovery and anomaly detection to Agile delivery and post-launch metrics.
- 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).
