Senior Product Manager, Cloud Security (CNAPP)

TrendAI™ is the global AI security leader and enterprise business unit of Trend Micro, empowering organizations with full AI visibility and consolidated security. They are seeking a highly technical Senior Product Manager to lead the strategy and productization of their Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP), focusing on integrated cloud security capabilities across major cloud environments.

Responsibilities:

• Own the strategy and roadmap for the cloud security portfolio, defining a prioritized, outcome-driven plan
• Synthesize customer requirements, field feedback, competitive intelligence, and market trends into a coherent strategic roadmap
• Decide which capabilities to build, extend, integrate, or partner on, and sequence delivery based on customer need, business impact, and technical feasibility
• Identify and drive opportunities to embed AI and generative AI into the product — such as AI-assisted detection, investigation, remediation, and analyst productivity — as a core part of the roadmap
• Use AI tools to accelerate product work, including research, requirements, competitive analysis, prototyping, and decision-making
• Co-work with the R&D team from planning through design and implementation to deliver high-quality, scalable cloud security solutions
• Apply strong cloud expertise in architecture and design reviews to guide technically sound, cloud-native product decisions
• Own the “what” and “why”: author clear product requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria, and make timely trade-off decisions during development
• Maintain a healthy backlog, participate in agile ceremonies, and remove ambiguity so engineering can move quickly
• Collaborate effectively with globally distributed R&D teams across multiple time zones
• Co-work with the field — sales, solution engineering, and customer success — to deliver enablement, messaging, demos, and competitive positioning
• Establish repeatable channels to collect, structure, and prioritize field and customer feedback, and feed it back into the roadmap
• Partner with product marketing on launches, pricing and packaging input, and adoption programs
• Meet with executive stakeholders — cloud security directors, CISOs, and CTOs — to understand strategic priorities, risk posture, and buying criteria
• Engage hands-on cloud, platform, DevOps, and security engineering teams to capture detailed requirements and validate solutions
• Represent the product strategy clearly to executives, customers, partners, analysts, and both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Participate in customer advisory boards, briefings, pilots, and industry events to shape and communicate the roadmap
• Define why each capability matters, which customer problem it solves, and how it should be positioned and sold
• Develop positioning, competitive analysis, customer presentations, solution briefs, and demonstrations
• Ensure every capability creates clear, measurable value for the customer and the business
• Use customer demand, product usage, adoption, technical feasibility, competitive intelligence, and pipeline impact to prioritize investment
• Measure success through customer adoption, risk reduction, influenced pipeline, and reusable platform capability

Requirements:

• Strong, hands-on cloud expertise is mandatory — deep working knowledge of AWS, Microsoft Azure, and/or Google Cloud architecture, services, and security
• Strong AI fluency is mandatory — demonstrated, hands-on use of AI and generative AI tools in daily work, and a clear point of view on how AI reshapes cloud security products. This will be assessed during the interview process
• 7+ years of combined experience across cybersecurity, cloud security, cloud platforms, or enterprise software
• 5+ years of product management or technical product leadership experience, including 3+ years focused specifically on cloud or cloud security products
• Cloud expertise from both a technical and a product management perspective
• Demonstrated experience co-working with R&D to deliver cloud-related solutions through the full lifecycle: planning, design, and implementation
• Experience working with field teams (sales, SE, customer success) on enablement and structured feedback loops
• Experience engaging customers at both executive (CTO/Director) and hands-on practitioner levels to gather requirements
• Experience collaborating with globally distributed R&D teams across multiple time zones
• Previous experience as a cloud architect, solutions architect, security architect, software engineer, sales engineer, or technical product manager
• Experience with cloud security or CNAPP domains such as posture management, workload and container protection, cloud identity/entitlements, detection and response, and application security
• Strong understanding of cloud architectures across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud
• Strong understanding of cloud-native services, workloads, containers, and Kubernetes
• Strong understanding of cloud security posture, configuration, and compliance
• Strong understanding of cloud identity, authorization, and entitlements
• Strong understanding of cloud threat detection, response, and runtime controls
• Strong understanding of AI and generative AI, and their application to cloud security and analyst productivity
• Strong understanding of application security and shift-left/DevSecOps practices
• Strong understanding of infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD pipelines
• Strong understanding of APIs, telemetry, policy enforcement, and security findings
• Strong understanding of compliance frameworks (CIS, NIST, PCI-DSS, SOC 2)
• Strong understanding of SaaS, hybrid, on-premises, and sovereign deployment architectures
• Ability to turn complex cloud technology into clear customer use cases and product requirements
• Strong roadmap, prioritization, execution, analytical, and problem-solving skills
• Ability to distinguish between a technical integration, a product feature, a sellable capability, and a strategic platform investment
• Excellent communication, customer and partner engagement, and cross-functional leadership skills
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Engineering, Information Technology, Business, or equivalent professional experience
• Familiarity with security operations (SOC) workflows and integration with SIEM, XDR, and SOAR platforms is a plus
