Director, Product Management (Security) - Cribl

Join the company that’s building the telemetry infrastructure for the AI era. At Cribl, we partner with IT and Security teams at many of the world’s biggest enterprises, including half of the Fortune 100, to bridge the gap between AI ambition and infrastructure reality.

Why You’ll Love This Role

Cribl just launched Cribl Detect, our SIEM built on the Cribl platform. Detection and response is the foundation. Your job is to figure out what comes next - and then build it.

As Director of Product Management for Security Products, you'll own the next wave of Cribl's security portfolio. You'll evaluate the most promising areas beyond Detect, recommend which ones to pursue, and lead what we fund from the first customer conversations to launch and growth.

As An Active Member Of Our Team, You Will…

• Drive the strategy for the next wave of security products - market analysis, customer discovery, competitive landscape, and clear recommendations on what to do first, second, and not at all.
• Build the business case for each area - customer problem, market size, why Cribl can win, build/partner/buy options, and what it takes to get there.
• Lead execution for what we fund - define the product, write requirements, set success metrics, and drive delivery with engineering from 0 to 1 and beyond.
• Make it one platform - ensure new capabilities work natively with Cribl Detect (shared data model, detections, alerts, and workflows).
• Spend real time with customers - CISOs, SOC managers, detection engineers, and analysts to validate direction before committing.
• Partner with Marketing, Sales, and technology partners on positioning, packaging, launch, and field enablement.
• Grow the team - hire and lead product managers as new areas get funded.
• Represent Cribl security externally with customers, analysts, and at industry events.

If You’ve Got It - We Want It

• 10+ years in product management or a closely related role, with 5+ years building security products.
• Deep understanding of security operations - SIEM, detection engineering, incident response, and how SOC teams work day to day.
• Hands-on product experience in at least one of: security automation and response (SOAR), identity security (ITDR, UEBA), AI or agentic security, or threat detection and response.
• A track record of taking a product from 0 to 1 - from problem discovery to a product customers pay for and use.
• Portfolio-level thinking - evaluated new markets, built business cases, and made clear recommendations with incomplete information.
• Leadership experience - leading or mentoring PMs, and leading through influence across engineering, marketing, and sales.
• Technical depth to go deep with engineers on data architectures, detection logic, and AI/LLM-based systems.
• Strong written communication - write clear strategy docs and PRDs, making decisions in writing.
• Good judgment under uncertainty - able to say "we shouldn't build this" as confidently as "we should."
