Senior Product Manager - Delinea Desktop Client

Delinea is a pioneer in securing human and machine identities through intelligent, centralized authorization. They are seeking a Senior Product Manager to own the vision, strategy, and execution for Delinea's Desktop Client, a cross-platform application that provides secure access to resources for users and workloads.

Responsibilities:

• Own the long-term vision, strategy, and multi-release roadmap for Desktop Client and its associated SDK and CLI capabilities, balancing foundational investment with incremental delivery that customers can feel
• Define and articulate the strategy for unifying connection brokering, credential delivery, and protocol access into a single client experience, and drive the long-term consolidation of legacy desktop and connection-management use cases into it
• Build and maintain the business case, success metrics, and outcome targets for the product, and communicate them clearly to executives, customers, and the broader organization
• Own end-to-end delivery across discovery, definition, and launch. Key expectations for this responsibility include writing crisp requirements, prioritizing ruthlessly, and making the trade-off calls that keep a technically complex product shipping on cadence through private preview, GA, and beyond
• Partner closely with engineering on architecture-shaping decisions for the cross-platform client and related SDK and CLI capabilities—translating deep technical constraints into clear product direction
• Define the experience for connecting across SSH, RDP, VNC, HTTPS, Kubernetes, databases, and cloud providers, including credential-set selection, live connection state, and a visual inventory of targets across protocols and environments
• Establish the metrics, telemetry, and feedback loops needed to measure adoption, reliability, and friction, and iterate based on what they tell you
• Be the voice of the IT administrator, power user, and developer by deeply understanding the "tool scatter," credential-handling, and just-in-time access pain that this product exists to eliminate
• Engage directly with customers, prospects, analysts, and field teams to validate direction, shape positioning, and ensure Delinea shows up to competitive evaluations with a single, credible access experience rather than fragmented tools
• Track the competitive landscape, including consolidated enterprise access and secure-browser offerings, and ensure the roadmap keeps Delinea ahead
• Act as the product point of accountability for Desktop Client across the organization, providing clarity on scope, sequencing, and what belongs to the client versus adjacent platform services
• Partner closely with engineering and architecture, UX and design, security and GRC, platform and infrastructure teams, and go-to-market functions to deliver a cohesive product
• Mentor and raise the bar for other product managers, modeling strong product judgment, written communication, and technical fluency
• Partner with Security and Compliance to ensure the client meets enterprise security expectations—including FedRAMP requirements—without adding friction for end users

Requirements:

• 5+ years of Product Management experience, including significant time owning technical, infrastructure, security, or identity products
• Demonstrated experience as a PM setting vision and strategy for a complex product and driving it through delivery at scale
• Experience owning desktop, CLI, or cross-platform applications (macOS/Windows/Linux), or comparable systems where the client experience is central to the product
• Strong technical fluency across networking and secure access concepts including protocols such as SSH, RDP, VNC, and HTTPS; TLS and certificates; databases, Kubernetes, and cloud infrastructure (AWS/Azure/GCP)
• Proven ability to translate deep architectural constraints into a clear, customer-centric roadmap, and to make and defend hard prioritization trade-offs
• Excellent written and verbal communication, with a track record of influencing executives, engineers, and customers alike
• CS/EE degree or security certification (CISSP/CCSP)
• Experience in privileged access management (PAM), identity security, remote/secure access, and/or developer tooling (CI/CD, Git) is strongly preferred
• Experience shipping software for FedRAMP compliance and adjacent regimes (FIPS 140-2/3 validated cryptography, SOC 2, etc.)
• Experience with product consolidation, legacy migration, and deprecation
• Experience with the cross-platform native client lifecycle: code signing, Apple notarization, Windows installer/MSI packaging, Linux packaging, and managed/silent deployment via MDM (Jamf, Intune, SCCM), plus auto-update channels
• Familiarity with Zero Trust / ZTNA architecture and how a client fits into a brokered-access model with proxies
• Familiarity with access players (Teleport, Okta Privilege Access, CyberArk, BeyondTrust)
