About the Role:

As a Platform Product Manager you'll 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 well suited for someone who is interested in core platform systems and wants to grow their impact in a technically complex, enterprise-facing product area. Over time, the scope may expand to additional foundational capabilities that support multiple product areas as platform needs evolve.

What You’ll Do:

• Own and drive the IAM product area, including user and team management, permissions and access control models, enterprise administration, and related identity capabilities

• Define and maintain the roadmap and backlogs for your ownership areas, balancing immediate customer 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 Architect and implementation teams to ensure capabilities are practical to deploy, operate, and scale in enterprise environments

• Support integrations with enterprise systems used for access control and provisioning (e.g., HRIS, CCaaS, or similar platforms)

• Operate effectively across multiple parallel workstreams, making timely product decisions as priorities evolve across engineering, security, and customer needs

• 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 related technical role (e.g., engineering, solutions architecture, technical program management), with experience driving product decisions and delivery

• 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, with interest in growing across adjacent platform areas

• Good product judgment and comfort engaging in technical discussions with engineers and security partners

Bonus Points:

• Familiarity with enterprise security or audit concepts (e.g., access controls, audit logs, least privilege)

• 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 the user management 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
