Job Summary

We’re looking for a Principal Product Manager to lead our Firewall as a service offerings across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI. This is a key role within our cloud network and AI security business, a market leader with one of the fastest-growing products in the space. You’ll work closely with major hyperscalers to deliver simple, best-in-class network and AI security solutions. In this highly visible, cross-functional role, you’ll help build and scale the business, own platform metrics, and drive insights. You’ll have strong support, but success is measured by the delivery of meaningful business outcomes. The Principal Product Manager must be deeply fluent in using AI tools as part of their everyday product workflow — someone who can move quickly from idea to prototype, from ambiguity to clarity, and from intuition to validation. This is not a traditional PM role centered on writing documents and handing them off. Instead, you’ll actively use AI to explore product logic, prototype workflows, test assumptions, and unblock teams before engineering effort is committed. You’ll work close to the product surface, shaping decisions by validating what should be built, not just defining requirements for what could be built.

Key Responsibilities

• Own your AI-enabled product end-to-end, making strategic decisions, prioritizing initiatives, and defining outcomes.
• Use AI tools to build prototypes that validate product logic, explore UX alternatives, and reduce the time from idea to insight.
• Partner with engineering, design, and business teams to translate AI capabilities into tangible, validated products.
