Head of Product

Huskeys is looking for a Head of Product to turn real customer pain and emerging market signals into

focused product outcomes. This is not a roadmap-administration or process role. The right person will

form a point of view, make trade-offs, create the smallest proof worth building, and use customer

evidence to decide what scales.

We need a product leader who can sense a meaningful change early, build something real

quickly, put it in front of customers, and adapt from evidence—not merely coordinate a

backlog.

What success looks like in the first 90 days:

Make product judgment visible and repeatable.

Focused portfolio: Establish a priority system grounded in Revenue, Acquisition, Retention, and explicit Capability bets. Kill or park work that does not earn its place.

Customer proof: Create a reliable flow from customer signal to decision, then to a bounded, working proof with real customer or representative data.

Market speed: Turn meaningful technology and market shifts into real demonstrations quickly, then make clear kill, iterate, or productize decisions.

Responsibilities

Own the product system, not every individual decision. Product direction: Turn customer, market, and technical signals into an opinionated sequence of bets. Make and defend hard trade-offs. Keep the portfolio focused.

Customer value: Spend meaningful time with customers, prospects, POCs, and customer-facing teams. Define customer outcomes, proof points, and success measures — not just features.

Fast learning: Design narrow, testable customer wedges and market probes. Separate a useful proof from a scalable product, and decide when to invest further.

R&D partnership: Give R&D outcome-complete direction: user job, evidence, success metric, constraints, exclusions, owner, and deadline. Enable distributed decisions without becoming an approval bottleneck.

Product function: Lead and grow Product across product management and design; coach the team to bring recommendations and evidence, not open-ended questions.

Required

• Direct cybersecurity product experience.

• Hands-on ownership of B2B product decisions, customer discovery, launch, and adoption.

• Comfort operating in an early-stage environment where the market and product change faster than formal planning cycles.

• Ability to form a sharp product thesis from ambiguous customer or market input.

• Strong technical fluency and credibility with engineers, security researchers, data systems, and infrastructure teams.

• Comfort making a call with incomplete information, defending it, and changing course when evidence changes.

Strong preference

• Networking or cloud networking.

• WAF, WAAP, API security, or application security.

• Cloud security posture, runtime security, detection/response, edge security, traffic analysis, or security data platforms.

• Experience building in the AI era: using low-cost experimentation and rapid learning to outpace slower incumbents.

• Experience managing product managers and designers.

• Experience working directly with enterprise security buyers and technical champions.
