About the role:
• As an Associate Product Manager on the VMDR team, you'll help define how security and IT teams discover, assess, prioritize and remediate vulnerabilities across on-prem, cloud, container and remote assets. Success is measured in real risk reduction (TruRisk), not raw finding counts.
• This role is for early-career problem-solvers with hands-on vulnerability management experience who want to grow into a full product manager. You'll own well-scoped features end to end and learn alongside senior PMs, engineering and Threat Research.
Key responsibilities:
1. Product definition and roadmap
• Own and evolve well-scoped features in core VMDR modules such as Asset Discovery & Inventory, Vulnerability Detection (Cloud Agent, network scanners, passive sensors), TruRisk Prioritization (QDS, threat intel, CISA KEV, EPSS), Dashboards & Reporting, and Remediation (Patch Management, TruRisk Eliminate).
• Collaborate with engineering to define product requirements and specifications: PRDs, user stories, prioritization logic, workflows,
wireframe annotations and acceptance criteria.
• Assist in developing the product roadmap and feature prioritization using frameworks such as RICE or MoSCoW, balancing customer asks, competitive gaps and engineering effort.
• Groom the backlog in Jira, prioritize with engineering, QA and UX, and track delivery against quarterly release plans.
2. Vulnerability assessment and threat analysis
• Perform hands-on vulnerability assessments: run authenticated and agent-based scans, review detections, investigate false positives/negatives and validate detection coverage.
• Conduct threat analysis on high-impact CVEs and zero-days (exploit availability, ransomware and malware association, CISA KEV listing, EPSS trend) with Threat Research, and turn findings into detection and prioritization requirements.
• Translate concepts such as CVSS vs. EPSS vs. QDS, asset criticality, toxic combinations, SLA breaches and MTTR into product features wi
