Associate Product Manager

Silver Spring, MD

Location: Hybrid, Silver Spring, Maryland (USA) preferred; Remote (USA) considered

JOB DESCRIPTION

Volexity is looking for an Associate Product Manager to join its product team and help build the next generation of cybersecurity products. This role is ideal for someone trained as an engineer who also has a business mindset and a desire to work closely with customers. It is an opportunity to learn product management, gain deep expertise in the cybersecurity industry, and help shape products used in real-world security environments.

As a core member of the product team, this person will work closely with customers and internal teams to ensure Volexity’s products succeed in real environments. They will write Python scripts, build automation, and troubleshoot customer infrastructure, while also growing their product skills by understanding the market, talking to customers, identifying product needs, and helping decide what gets built.

The right person is technical, self-directed, and comfortable with ambiguity. They like building tools, solving messy problems, and figuring things out without waiting for perfect instructions. They want more ownership and customer exposure than most entry-level engineering roles offer. This is a high-growth role for someone who wants to become a strong technical product leader.

What the Role Involves

  • Deploy and support Scout in real customer environments

  • Build and improve deployment automations using tools such as Terraform and Ansible

  • Contribute to product SDKs to make deployment, configuration, and testing easier

  • Prototype integrations with systems customers already use

  • Research and stay informed of related products and approaches in cybersecurity

  • Turn repeatable customer issues into actionable product requirements for the engineering team

  • Communicate clearly with technical and non-technical customers

Qualifications

Volexity is looking for candidates who are highly technical, curious, and has a strong sense of ownership:

  • Degree in CS or related field

  • Experience with Python

  • Familiarity with infrastructure, deployment, cloud environments, networking, and Linux

  • Ability to troubleshoot complex systems across multiple layers

  • Strong communication skills

  • Comfort working directly with customers

  • Interest in cybersecurity, endpoint systems, incident response, memory analysis, detection, or investigation workflows

  • Good judgment about when to build, when to research, when to document, when to ask for help

  • A self-directed working style

Preferred Experience

Candidates do not need all of these, but they would be helpful:

  • Experience in cybersecurity, endpoint security, incident response, digital forensics, malware analysis, or threat intelligence

  • Experience with EDR, SIEM, security operations, or detection workflows

  • Familiarity with tools like Terraform, Ansible, or similar deployment automation technologies

  • Familiarity with tools like Splunk, Elastic, Volatility, YARA, or similar investigation technologies

  • Experience supporting enterprise software deployments

Compensation may vary based on location, experience, and skills. We are open to discussing total compensation including benefits, eqty, and professional development budget.
