Principal Product Manager - Data & AI Security

Relyance AI is redefining how organizations secure, govern, and trust AI systems and data in the era of intelligent, agentic software. As our Principal Product Manager – Data & AI Security, you’ll lead strategy and execution for Relyance AI’s next-generation security offerings — spanning AI Security Posture, AI Runtime Protection, and Dynamic Data Security for enterprise AI environments.

This role demands both strategic vision and deep technical understanding. You’ll help shape the product roadmap, translate customer and market insights into action, and partner closely with Engineering, GTM, and Customer Success teams to deliver scalable, trustworthy solutions that protect sensitive data across AI models, applications, and agent-driven workflows.

Key Responsibilities

• Define and drive the Data & AI Security roadmap — shaping how enterprises protect sensitive data and AI systems across cloud, model, and runtime environments.
• Deeply understand customer needs and workflows — how data moves through AI models, APIs, and agentic workflows — to identify risks and uncover opportunities for protection and visibility.
• Translate strategy into clear product requirements and measurable outcomes, ensuring alignment across engineering, design, and go-to-market teams.
• Lead the end-to-end product lifecycle — from concept and design through launch, adoption, and continuous improvement — balancing innovation with reliability and trust.
  Collaborate cross-functionally:
• With Engineering, to design scalable and secure data and AI protection capabilities.
• With GTM and Marketing, to position and launch differentiated offerings.
• With Executives, to align roadmap priorities with company strategy.
• With Customers, to validate real-world use cases and drive adoption.
• Stay ahead of emerging threats and technologies in AI, data, and runtime security — including AI agents, orchestration frameworks, and autonomous execution patterns.

Why This Role Matters

• This is a 0→1 opportunity to shape how enterprises secure data and AI systems in production — from traditional workloads to autonomous, agent-driven applications.
• You’ll help define the future of Data and AI Security, bridging visibility, protection, and trust across the entire lifecycle of data, models, and AI interactions.
• You’ll work at the intersection of security engineering, AI behavior, and enterprise trust, enabling organizations to adopt AI securely and responsibly.

Ideal Candidate

• 5+ years of product management experience building and shipping enterprise or cloud-security products.
• 3+ years in Data, Cloud, or AI Security, with hands-on understanding of data protection challenges in AI-driven environments.
• Demonstrated knowledge of agentic AI systems (e.g., LLM-based agents, orchestration frameworks, autonomous workflows).
• Strong understanding of AI security risks (e.g., prompt injection, privilege escalation, model manipulation, compliance gaps).
• Proven ability to translate complex technical and regulatory needs into clear product outcomes.
• Technical fluency with APIs, data systems, or AI-enabled applications.
• Excellent communication and storytelling skills — able to align executives, customers, and engineering on shared priorities.
• A hands-on, outcome-driven mindset that thrives in fast-moving 0→1 environments.

Bonus Points

• Experience in AI or ML-based product development.
• Familiarity with frameworks such as ISO 42001, NIST AI RMF, or EU AI Act.
• Background in data governance, Application security or runtime observability.
• Passion for building trust at the intersection of AI innovation and security.
