Security represents the most critical priorities for our customers in a world awash in digital threats, regulatory scrutiny, and estate complexity. Microsoft Security aspires to make the world a safer place for all. We want to reshape security and empower every user, customer, and developer with a security cloud that protects them with end-to-end, simplified solutions. The Microsoft Security organization accelerates Microsoft’s mission and bold ambitions to ensure that our company and industry is securing digital technology platforms, devices, and clouds in our customers’ heterogeneous environments, as well as ensuring the security of our own internal estate.
Within the larger Security Customer Experience Engineering (CXE) organization, our team builds strategic partnerships with Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) to close product gaps, enhance feature areas, and drive innovation. We find and unlock these opportunities by determining which industry leaders to invest in, ensuring product functionalities align, co-launching new technologies and scenarios, and creating a plan to scale adoption. We strive to increase Microsoft’s and Independent Software Vendors (ISV’s) product positioning with customers, competitors, and analysts.
We also leverage partnerships with Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) to influence our feature roadmap to ensure APIs are core to feature release, minimizing once-off custom integrations, thus ensuring faster adoption as well as a scalable support path.
If you have a passion for cybersecurity, customer/partner relationships, and product management we are hiring a Senior Product Manager.
Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
