About the job
About Opal Security:
At Opal, we are revolutionizing identity governance for the AI-driven landscape. Our intelligent access management solutions empower enterprises to accelerate their operations while maintaining robust security. Our mission is to enhance clarity, control, and confidence in complex enterprise environments, enabling teams to manage access effectively without hindering innovation.
The Role:
As identity management gains prominence, organizations are increasingly deploying agents and service accounts, realizing that their current IAM solutions are insufficient. We are at the forefront of developing AI-enhanced security that adapts to this dynamic environment, with leading companies like Databricks, Cloudflare, and Figma placing their trust in us.
In this pivotal role, you will take charge of Opal's product strategy and execution as our sole Product Manager. Collaborating closely with security and engineering teams across Fortune 500 companies and innovative startups, you will gain insights into their unique challenges and define our leadership position in the IAM sector. You will report directly to the CTO and work closely with our engineering team.
We pride ourselves on building a cohesive and enjoyable team environment. We are eager to welcome new colleagues who will contribute to and evolve alongside our mission
Your Responsibilities:
Drive product strategy from concept to execution, taking ownership of our offerings and market expansion. Collaborate with customers to validate our direction, partner with engineering on technical strategy, and ensure our roadmap positions us for success in IAM.
Design our platform to unify human and non-human identity governance across hybrid environments, integrating on-premises Active Directory, cloud IAM, SaaS applications, and AI agents.
Lead our transformation from a fast, flexible solution to an enterprise-grade offering at scale, maintaining the aspects that developers love about us.
Drive the creation of a new category, positioning Opal as the intelligence layer for authorization, distinguishing us from mere point solutions in a crowded IAM landscape.
Shape the future of Opal and the identity management field.
Our Ideal Candidate:
Has a strategic mindset: capable of analyzing market trends, customer insights, and technical limitations to chart the best path forward.
Is passionate about building platforms, not just features: understands API strategy, developer experience, and how to create flexible systems that provide enduring value.
