Exposure and vulnerability management is the primary expansion, and the surrounding surfaces, attack surface and cloud posture, are signals you bring in to sharpen prioritization rather than products you build from scratch.

You will be the person a CISO trusts to explain why one exposure matters more than a thousand others, the person an engineering lead respects for the quality of your requirements, and the person who turns a fast-moving market into a roadmap Elastic can win on. You will work at the intersection of Product, Engineering, and the Elastic Security Labs research team, on a platform whose unified data layer is the reason convergence can be native here instead of bolted on.What You Will Be DoingOwn XDR strategy and delivery across cross-domain detection and response across endpoint, cloud, identity, and network. Lead Elastic's XDR expansion into exposure and vulnerability management.

This includes features like patch management, advanced device control, host firewall management, and remediation workflow. Draw the line between XDR, exposure, and the adjacent surfaces such as attack surface and cloud posture,



bringing those signals in as inputs rather than standing up separate products.Serve as the product voice with senior customer stakeholders, including the CISO and VP of Security Operations, and deliver roadmap direction, including deprioritizations, without losing the room.Become the internal authority on the competitive landscape, including major security vendors and MDR service providers, and turn that into differentiated direction rather than talking points.Partner with engineering leads and Security Labs to write requirements they can act on without follow-up clarification meetings, and to ground detection and exposure scoring in real threat research.What You BringExtensive Experience: 7-10 years of product management experience, with at least 4 years in security or B2B enterprise software. Hands-on knowledge of XDR, EDR, SIEM, or broader security operations, either as a product manager or as a practitioner such as a SOC analyst, detection engineer, or incident responder.

Exposure and Vulnerability Fluency: You understand the difference between raw scanning, asset inventory, and true exposure prioritization, and why exploitability and reachability beat CVSS severity. A solid comprehension of the analytics and data science techniques behind detection and prioritization, and of the current cyber threat landscape these capabilities defend against. Familiarity with AI security, how AI, ML, and agentic systems are attacked and defended, is a solid plus.Technical Credibility:



You earn respect from engineering through the quality of your requirements rather than through authority, and you know enough about architecture to judge feasibility and scope on your own.Management and Influence: Demonstrated ability to lead across a matrixed organization, align multiple stakeholders toward a common vision, and drive execution in a dynamic, remote-first environment.

Flexible working styles: You easily adapt to various projects, codebases, or teams based on the business's needs. Competitive pay based on the work you do here and not your previous salaryHealth coverage for you and your family in many locationsAbility to craft your calendar with adaptable locations and schedules for many rolesGenerous number of vacation days each yearIncrease your impact - We match up to $2000 (or local currency equivalent) for financial donations and serviceUp to 40 hours each year to use toward volunteer projects you loveEmbracing parenthood with minimum of 16 weeks of parental leaveDifferent people approach problems differently.
