  • Head of Product\n
  • Stairwell is redefining how defenders find and understand threats, not by scaling alerts, but by changing the mindset: from logs to files, from data to knowledge, from reaction to certainty.\n
  • We’re building a platform that continuously analyzes every executable, across all time, to detect threats others miss… even the unknown. We’ve built the infrastructure to support that vision. Now we need a Head of Product who can define product strategy to match where the market is at. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who knows the security landscape - users, vendors and service providers - inside and out, knows how to incorporate the voice of the customer into product plans, and can drive sharp, confident decision-making across complexity. You’ll work directly with the CTO, Engineering, Product Marketing, and Sales Engineering to build what matters and make sure the world knows why it matters.\n
  • What You’ll Own: Strategy & Roadmap; Customer & Market Insight; Execution & Alignment; Category Thinking.\n
  • Why Stairwell: You’ll shape the future of a platform that’s years ahead of the market — and just getting started; You’ll help define a new category, grounded in technical credibility, not empty marketing; We’re redefining how detection teams work, etc. \n
  • Want to stand out? If you include a short note or deck with your take on Stairwell and what you’d prioritize in your first 60 days, we’ll review it with priority.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of product management experience, including at least 3+ in security or infrastructure-focused products.\n
  • Deep understanding of the modern detection and response ecosystem including TIPs, SIEM, SOAR, EDR, malware analysis, and how teams actually operate.\n
  • You’ve owned roadmap and strategy before, not just scoped tickets. You’ve shipped products and driven impact.\n
  • Strong communicator - structured, sharp, and credible with both engineers and executives.\n
  • Ability to move fast. You’re expected to arrive with a working model of the market, not spend two months getting up to speed.\n
  • Hands-on experience with malware analysis workflows, detection engineering, or SOC tooling.\n
  • Background in product marketing, analyst relations, or category positioning is a plus. ● Familiarity with how threat intel, IR, and SOC workflows intersect — and how to simplify them with software.\n
  • Experience with API platforms, integrations, or infrastructure products aimed at highly technical users.\n
  • Bonus points if you understand how SIGINT-style systems work - data collection, storage, and continuous analysis at scale. That mindset fits naturally with how we think.
