Head of Product

About us

TruffleHog is a popular open source tool used by security researchers all over the world to find leaky API keys and responsibly disclose them to affected companies. This provides income through bug bounty platforms like HackerOne to individuals that may otherwise have a hard time finding employment. This also prevents breaches from occurring, which can be very costly for companies to resolve.

When we founded Truffle Security Co. in February of 2021, we committed to continue to grow a community with security researchers around the world, and continue to provide free and open resources to support those that make the world more secure. We have a strong commitment to open source and to the community. We’re looking for help supporting our mission to prevent leaking credentials and build the best products for machine identity protection.

At Truffle, you’ll have the opportunity to join a fully remote, collaborative team contributing to meaningful advancements in cybersecurity.

What we're looking for

• Deep Product Craft: 10+ years of experience leading product strategy or technical teams, with a foundation in security engineering (such as Application, Infrastructure, or Cloud Security) and a proven transition into product management.
• Strategic Vision + Tactical Intuition: You can move fluidly between high-level product strategy and detailed UX or technical discussions.
• Customer-Centric Thinker: Skilled at synthesizing feedback and research into actionable insights and inspiring product narratives.
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Able to connect engineering, design, and customer teams around a shared sense of purpose and direction.
• Strong Communicator: You bring energy and clarity to written and verbal communication — whether aligning a roadmap or telling the story of why something matters.
• Experience Building and Leading Teams: Proven ability to hire, mentor, and develop Product Managers while scaling a high-performance product organization.

Salary range: The target salary range for this position is between $200,000 - $255,000. Starting salary will vary based on job-related skills, knowledge, and experience.
