About the Role:
We are hiring a Platform Product Manager to own and evolve our Identity and Access Management (IAM) capabilities as our product and customer base continue to grow. This role will begin with a deep focus on IAM, particularly permissions, access control, and enterprise administration, working to enhance our offerings and strengthen the security posture of both our platform and our customers’ environments. This role is about building the control plane for an enterprise AI system.
If you enjoy building foundational system capabilities, setting their long-term direction, and taking true ownership of how they evolve at scale, this role is for you.
What You’ll Do:
Own and drive the IAM product area end-to-end, including authentication, user management, access control models (e.g., RBAC), organizational administration (e.g., hierarchies / delegated admin), and audit log
Define and maintain the roadmap and backlogs for your ownership areas, balancing immediate enterprise needs with longer-term platform goals
Partner with security and engineering to plan, prioritize, and deliver improvements with a focus on reliability and enterprise readiness
Work with Solution Architects and implementation teams to ensure IAM capabilities are practical to deploy, integrate, and operate in real-world enterprise environments
Support integrations with enterprise systems used for access control and provisioning (e.g., HRIS, CCaaS, ITSM, identity providers)
Operate effectively across multiple parallel workstreams, making clear product decisions as priorities evolve
Ensure capabilities are clearly understood and usable by customer-facing teams, including guidance on configuration and operational considerations
Contribute to the evolution of shared platform capabilities beyond IAM as priorities emerge, in partnership with other Product Managers
What We’re Looking For:
3+ years of experience in product management or a deeply technical role (e.g., software engineer, solutions architecture, technical program management), with experience driving product decisions and delivery
A strong technical foundation, either through a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science (or adjacent major), or meaningful hands-on experience building real systems
Experience working cross-functionally with engineering and customer-facing teams on technical products
Experience working with enterprise administration or access-related systems, such as user management, permissions, authentication, provisioning, or HRIS-integrated workflows
Ability to reason about systems design at a conceptual level, understanding how authentication flows, APIs, and access models work at a high level
Strong product judgment and comfort engaging in detailed technical discussions with engineers and security partners
Bonus Points:
Familiarity with enterprise security or audit concepts (e.g., least privilege, audit logs, access governance)
Exposure to IAM concepts such as OAuth, SAML, SCIM, OIDC, RBAC, or SSO flows
Experience integrating with enterprise systems (e.g., HRIS, ITSM, CCaaS platforms) from a user management or provisioning perspective
Exposure to organizational or team hierarchy models and delegated administration
Interest in building reliable, observable platform services used by enterprise customers
Perks & Benefits:
We offer a comprehensive and people-first benefits package to support you at work and in life:
Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with plans to fit you and your family
Flexible PTO to take the time you need, when you need it
Paid parental leave for all new parents welcoming a new child
Retirement savings plan to help you plan for the future
