Clickhouse Director of Product Management, Security at Clickhouse owns security product strategy, roadmap, and go-to-market execution. Acts as security subject matter expert and partners with engineering and leadership on database security, networking, and IAM.

Responsibilities

Own the product vision, strategy, and multi-year roadmap for our security offerings, and make the case for it - internally with engineering and leadership, and externally with customers and the market.
Go deep on database security, networking, and identity and access management (IAM) - enough to argue the details with engineering, not just approve what they propose.
Partner closely with engineering, design, sales, and marketing to ship products that are actually secure, not just marketed that way.
Translate complex security requirements into specifications and user stories that engineering can understand.
Own backlog prioritization and the trade-offs that come with it, weighing business value, customer risk, and engineering cost.
Drive go-to-market for security launches - positioning, sales enablement, documentation.
Monitor how security features perform in the real world and use that data, not just instinct, to decide what to build next.
Be the security subject-matter expert other teams come to, and provide guidance and coaching to PMs working on security-adjacent problems elsewhere in the org.
Represent our security posture and roadmap externally - with top customers, prospects, and analysts when the conversation needs someone who actually understands the tradeoffs.

10+ years of product management experience in B2B SaaS, with a significant and sustained focus on security products or features, including experience setting security strategy at an organizational level.
Real, hands-on experience with database security principles and best practices.
Strong understanding of networking concepts and their security implications.
In-depth knowledge of identity and access management (IAM).
Security certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISM, CompTIA Security+) preferred.
Solid program management skills: planning, execution, and risk management across multiple concurrent workstreams.
A track record of representing product externally - with customers, analysts, or at industry events, and translating deep technical security topics for non-technical audiences.
Experience guiding or informally mentoring other PMs, even without a formal reporting relationship.
Strong communication and presentation skills, and the judgment to know when to escalate versus when to just make the call.
Comfortable in a fast-paced, collaborative environment where priorities shift and you're expected to bring order to it, not just follow along.
