The IDIRA Identity Security Platform is responsible for helping modern enterprises protect their most critical assets across hybrid, cloud, and multi-cloud environments. As attackers increasingly target identities—both human and non-human—understanding an organization's true identity footprint, real-time posture, and active threats is the foundational baseline for all of IDIRA. We are looking for a Director of Product Management to lead a team of product managers building the foundational intelligence and threat engine for the entire IDIRA platform. This is a core platform leadership role whose scope spans Discovery, Context & Risk , and Threat Detection & Prevention (ITDR) . Your team’s capabilities will serve as the shared "brain" driving success across all IDIRA solution pillars—including PAM, IAM, Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM), Non-Human Identities (NHI), and Agent Infrastructure . In this role, you will define, design, and ship industry-defining platform capabilities that discover unmanaged assets and shadow identities, compute real-time risk, and detect and prevent active privilege threats across every layer of the enterprise.

Enterprise-Wide Platform Leadership: Lead and grow a high-performing group of Product Managers building shared capabilities that directly power and elevate all IDIRA product lines ( PAM, IAM, EPM, NHI, and Agents ). Product Execution & Delivery: Oversee the entire product lifecycle—from gathering CISO and security practitioner feedback to defining requirements, prioritizing trade-offs, and partnering closely with Engineering to ship a unified roadmap. Platform Vision & Strategic Horizons: Expand IDIRA’s Discovery, Risk, and Threat Intelligence capabilities by introducing innovative, disruptive approaches (e.g., Identity Graphs, AI-driven behavioral modeling, and automated response workflows) that turn disparate telemetry into real-time security context. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner effectively across a global organization—working closely with Engineering, Data Science, Threat Research, Sales, Customer Success, and counterpart PM leads across PAM, IAM, EPM, and NHI to ensure seamless platform integration. Domain Expertise: Deeply understand Identity, Endpoint, SecOps, and ITDR practitioners, translating complex identity exposure, agent telemetry, and threat signals into intuitive, actionable workflows. UX/UI & Visualization: Work closely with UX/UI design leaders to create state-of-the-art, highly intuitive user interfaces and visualizations (such as cross-domain attack path analytics and unified risk scoring dashboards). Go-To-Market & Executive Advocacy: Act as a key platform spokesperson, presenting IDIRA's platform risk,
