Director, Product Management - EDR

Reports to: Senior Director of Product Management

Location: Remote US

Compensation Range: $215,000- $240,000 base plus bonus and equity

What We Do:

Founded in 2015 as a fully remote company by former NSA cyber operators, Huntress was built on a simple premise: to force hackers to earn every inch of their access.

Today's cyber-attacks aren't limited to large organizations with the security tools that can ward off threats. Hackers don't discriminate and will find a way to penetrate any vulnerability in any size business, which is why Huntress focuses on protecting those small to midsize businesses that make up the backbone of our economy.

Huntress stops hidden threats that sneak past preventive security tools by utilizing our award-winning security platform and expert human threat hunters through dynamic products including Managed EDR, MDR for Microsoft 365, and Managed Security Awareness Training.

Join the hunt and help us stop hackers in their tracks!

• Collaborate with marketing and other key stakeholders to drive and execute product launches to market
• Derive feedback and insights from customers through face-to-face interaction and collaboration throughout the product development lifecycle
• Serve as the intermediary between engineering and senior leadership and other non-technical stakeholders with the ability to break down and translate highly technical information into layman's terms and vice versa
• Drive high-level strategic initiatives and execution while possessing a willingness to dig into the weeds, when necessary
• Work with design teams and engineering to produce mockups, wireframes, and eventual prototypes to assess the validity and strength of a new product or feature idea.
• Manage and drive results from user experience testing and gain crucial insights into how customers use (or don't use) the platform
• In partnership with product operations, provide product metrics, including conversion rate, churn rate, and monthly recurring revenue, etc. to track and analyze the success of the product strategy

What You Bring To The Team:

• 8+ years of experience in a product management role with past responsibility for EDR / XDR products or others related to threat detection, response, IR, or threat intelligence
