About Ping Identity: 

At Ping Identity, we believe in making digital experiences both secure and seamless for all users, without compromise. We call this digital freedom. And it's not just something we provide our customers. It's something that inspires our company. People don't come here to join a culture that's built on digital freedom. They come to cultivate it. 

Our intelligent, cloud identity platform lets people shop, work, bank, and interact wherever and however they want. Without friction. Without fear. 

While protecting digital identities is at the core of our technology, protecting individual identities is at the core of our culture. We champion every identity. One of our core values, Respect Individuality, reminds us to celebrate differences so you are empowered to bring your authentic self to work. 

We're headquartered in Denver, Colorado and we have offices and employees around the globe. We serve the largest, most demanding enterprises worldwide, including more than half of the Fortune 100. At Ping Identity, we're changing the way people and businesses think about cybersecurity, digital experiences, and identity and access management. 

The Role

We’re looking for a Director, Product Management to drive the product strategy and roadmap for PingOne Privilege, our Just-in-time next-gen Privileged Access Management (PAM) product focused on our enterprise customers.

This senior individual contributor role sits in our Product organization and will be central to how Ping secures and protects sensitive privileged access to high‑value accounts, infrastructure, and applications across hybrid and multi‑cloud environments. You will shape how PingOne Privilege integrates with our broader Identity & Access Management (IAM) and Identity Governance & Administration (IGA) offerings to deliver cohesive Zero Trust journeys for customers.

The ideal candidate brings deep experience in PAM for enterprise environments, is comfortable operating at strategic and execution levels, and can lead complex, cross‑functional initiatives without direct line management.

Key Responsibilities

Strategy & Roadmap

  • Own the end‑to‑end product strategy and multi‑year roadmap for PingOne Privilege, with a focus on global enterprise and regulated customers.
  • Define how PAM capabilities (e.g., credential and secrets vaulting, session management, just‑in‑time and just‑enough access, elevation and approvals, auditing and forensics) evolve to meet emerging threat, compliance, and operational needs.
  • Define how PAM integrates with Ping’s broader identity platform (SSO/MFA, IAM, IGA, directories, analytics) to deliver differentiated, end‑to‑end scenarios.
  • Define the PAM strategy for AI agents and Non human identities

Customer, Market & Use Case Leadership

  • Engage directly with CISOs, developers, security architects, identity leaders, and operations teams to deeply understand enterprise threat models, workflows, and constraints.
  • Translate complex security and compliance requirements into clear, opinionated product use cases for both cloud and hybrid deployments.
  • Monitor the PAM, IAM, and IGA competitive landscape and adjacent markets (cloud infra, DevOps, ITSM, ITOM) to ensure Ping is a strategic differentiator.
  • Establish Ping’s leadership in Agentic AI and NHI markets

Execution & Cross‑Functional Leadership

  • Translate strategy into crisp product requirements, narratives, and user stories for multiple engineering teams; make thoughtful, data‑driven trade‑offs on scope and sequencing.
  • Partner with Engineering, Architecture, UX, and Data teams to balance security, scale, performance, and operability for enterprise deployments.
  • Drive complex cross‑functional initiatives that span multiple product areas and services, ensuring clear ownership, milestones, and communication.

Monetization, GTM & Field Partnership

  • Collaborate with Product Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success on positioning, packaging, and GTM plays for PAM‑centric solutions and bundles.
  • Support strategic deals, customer escalations, and roadmap reviews as the primary product voice for PAM, especially with large global accounts.
  • Define and track key success metrics (e.g., privileged account/session coverage, reduction in standing privileges, attach/expansion rates, time‑to‑value) and use them to drive iteration.

Product Culture & Thought Leadership

  • Act as a senior IC product leader, mentoring other PMs in adjacent identity areas (Access Management, IGA, Analytics) and raising the bar on security depth and enterprise product thinking.
  • Champion a culture of customer‑backed, data‑informed, experiment‑oriented decision‑making across the product organization.

Qualifications

Experience

  • 10+ years in product management for enterprise B2B software, with significant time in identity and access management.
  • Direct product ownership in Privileged Access Management (or closely related domains such as privileged session management, credential vaulting, PAMaaS, privileged remote access, CIEM) for large or regulated enterprises.
  • Demonstrated success defining and executing strategy for complex products spanning on‑prem, cloud, and hybrid environments.
  • Track record of leading cross‑functional initiatives without direct reports, aligning Engineering, Architecture, GTM, and Operations teams around common outcomes.

Domain Skills

  • Strong understanding of privileged access concepts: least privilege, Zero Standing Privileges, just‑in‑time access, session monitoring and recording, approvals and workflows, secrets management, and audit/compliance needs.
  • Solid grounding in identity and security fundamentals, including authentication, authorization, policy models, directory services, and common enterprise infrastructure targets 
  • Deep knowledge of IaaS cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and developers tools and technologies including SSH, RDP, Kubernetes and Databases
  • Additional experience in IAM and IGA (SSO/MFA, federation, lifecycle provisioning, access requests, certifications, SoD) is a significant plus.

Product & Leadership Skills

  • Exceptional problem‑structuring and analytical skills, comfortable working with both qualitative and quantitative data to inform decisions.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication, including experience presenting strategy and roadmap to executives and strategic customers.
  • Proven ability to decompose large initiatives into clear milestones, manage risk, and drive execution in agile environments.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Security, or related field; an advanced degree is a plus.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
