About the role
We are looking for a Senior Product Manager who combines deep security domain instinct with the ability to drive clarity across engineering, customers, and leadership in a high-ambiguity environment. Own portions of the product roadmap for Azure Key Vault and/or PKI services, defining priorities based on customer needs, competitive landscape, compliance requirements (SFI, EU CRA, FedRAMP), and engineering feasibility — and driving those priorities through design, build, and launch. Partner deeply with engineering teams to translate complex cryptographic and certificate lifecycle requirements into clear specifications, make scope tradeoffs, and ship high-quality capabilities on predictable schedules. Engage directly with enterprise customers and internal service teams to understand how they manage secrets, keys, and certificates at scale — turning those insights into product improvements and migration strategies that reduce credential risk. Drive cross-team initiatives across Identity, Security, Azure platform, and Windows teams where Key Vault and PKI intersect with broader platform capabilities like Managed Identity, Conditional Access, and workload identity federation. Monitor and act on product health signals — telemetry, support trends, service reliability, and customer feedback — to continuously improve the product experience and operational excellence of your services. Bachelor's Degree AND 5+ years of experience in product/service/project/program management or software development, OR equivalent experience. 3+ years of experience in cloud security, identity, cryptography, PKI, or secrets/key management product domains Bachelor's Degree AND 8+ years of experience in product/service/project/program management or software development, OR equivalent experience. Experience with certificate lifecycle management, public key infrastructure (PKI), or hardware security module (HSM) technologies. Experience managing products that serve both external customers and large-scale internal enterprise consumers simultaneously. Demonstrated ability to drive complex migration programs involving legacy infrastructure, multiple stakeholders, and escalation-heavy timelines. Familiarity with compliance frameworks relevant to cloud security (FedRAMP, SOC 2, Common Criteria, EU CRA) and how they shape product requirements. Track record of shipping security or infrastructure products in Azure or comparable hyperscale cloud platforms. Experience with Vault Technologies, PKI, or comparable enterprise key/certificate management platforms. Understanding of non-human identity (workload identity, managed identity, service principal, SPIFFEE) security patterns and challenges. Experience influencing without authority across organizational boundaries — particularly between security, platform engineering, and compliance teams. Strong written communication skills, with the ability to author executive-ready documents, customer-facing communications, and technical specifications.
