Description

What we do: Halcyon is the industry’s first dedicated, adaptive security platform that combines multiple proprietary advanced prevention engines along with AI models focused specifically on stopping ransomware. Who we are: Halcyon was formed in 2021 by a team of cyber industry veterans after battling the scourge of ransomware (and advanced threats) for years at some of the largest global security vendors. Comprised of leaders from Cylance (now Blackberry), Accuvant (now Optiv), Fireye and ISS X-Force (now IBM), Halcyon is focused on building products and solutions for mid-market and enterprise customers. As a remote-native, completely distributed global team, we recognize great talent can exist anywhere. We invite you to apply to a job you’re interested in and we'll work a plan to meet your needs. The Role Halcyon’s goal is to deliver an anti-ransomware solution that breaks new ground in what a security product can prevent, detect, and recover. Halcyon has grown rapidly and is now scaling the product and organization to meet increasing customer demand. As we expand, we’re investing in more durable, repeatable execution across Product and Engineering.

Provide concise executive visibility on progress, risks, tradeoffs, and decisions required. Coordinate launch readiness across Product, Engineering, and GTM teams to ensure smooth internal delivery and successful customer adoption. Define and evolve the program management playbook for Product + Engineering; mentor others as the function grows. Skills and Qualifications 8+ years of program management experience, including significant ownership within Product + Engineering organizations.

Track record establishing operating rhythms and planning frameworks that improve predictability and execution clarity. Strong stakeholder management skills and comfort driving alignment across senior leaders with competing priorities. Excellent structured thinking, planning, and problem-solving capability. Exceptional written and verbal communication, including executive-level reporting and narrative building.
