Our values were crowdsourced by employees and are brought to life through each of us everyday - from disruptive innovation and collaboration, to execution.

Our goal is to create an environment where we all win with precision. Job Description Your Career We’re seeking a Product Manager to lead our Cloud Next-Generation Firewall (CNGFW) Partner portfolio, a key pillar of our AI and Cloud Software Firewall business. The ideal candidate brings curiosity and expertise in building Agentic and AI-driven workflows that strengthen cloud network security across both AI and non-AI workloads. This is a high-impact role within one of the fastest-growing segments in network and AI security, working with top cloud providers like Oracle Cloud and Google Cloud to deliver best-in-class, native cloud security solutions. As the product owner, you’ll drive strategy, execution, and growth for our partner-integrated firewall offerings—bridging deep technical understanding with business acumen. You’ll collaborate closely with cross-functional teams and our cloud partners to build scalable solutions that protect customers’ cloud environments with simplicity, power, and innovation. This is a highly visible, cross-functional product leadership role that demands both strategic vision and hands-on execution. You’ll have strong organizational backing—but ultimate accountability for outcomes rests with you. Your Impact Serve as the “mini-CEO” for your product—own strategy, roadmap, and execution end-to-end. Define and prioritize product requirements, managing the full product lifecycle from concept through launch and iteration. Drive partner engagement and joint solution development with Oracle Cloud and Google Cloud teams. Use platform metrics to generate insights and drive data-informed decisions. Balance competing priorities and execute effectively in fast-moving, ambiguous environments. Stay ahead of emerging trends in Cloud Security, particularly in Google Cloud and Oracle Cloud ecosystems. Collaborate cross-functionally with Engineering, UX, TechDocs, and Support to deliver seamless customer experiences. Demonstrate a growth mindset—no task is beneath you when it comes to building your business. Operate independently with strong ownership and accountability. Qualifications Your Experience 4+ years of Product Management experience, ideally in SaaS products. Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent experience (military experience welcomed). Strong understanding of Networking and Network Security domains preferred. Experience leveraging Agentic and AI-driven workflows to enhance cloud network security for AI and non-AI workloads. Proven success driving high-velocity product releases and making decisions with incomplete data. Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to influence across teams and organizations. Additional Information Compensation Disclosure The compensation offered for this position will depend on qualifications, experience, and work location. For candidates who receive an offer at the posted level, the starting base salary (for non-sales roles) or base salary + commission target (for sales/commissioned roles) is expected to be between $166000/YR - $268500/YR. The offered compensation may also include restricted stock units and a bonus. A description of our employee benefits may be found here.
