The Opportunity
At Beyond Identity, product management is a strategic function whose mandate is to understand our prospects and customers so we can, as the Voice of the Customer, best meet their needs, and expectations for the product and features we deliver.

You will build upon all of these to define the “what” in the product roadmap and lead the organization to achieve it. Ultimate success will be measured by high-levels of customer satisfaction and retention, growth of recurring revenue, and expansion of customer lifetime value. You will bring empathy, humility, and a continuous learning mindset every day. You are motivated to innovate and create, to always do the right thing, and to build a sustaining product and company.
