Product Manager, Detection Pipeline

Job Overview

You live at the intersection of security and product management, and there's no place you'd rather be. You understand that the detection pipeline isn't just plumbing.

It's the connective tissue that turns raw security data into signal, and if ingestion, normalization, or correlation break down, everything downstream suffers.

Job Description

You're not intimidated by the scale and complexity of data flowing through a modern security platform.

Quite the opposite: you pride yourself on knowing how data moves from source to detection, where the pipeline breaks, and what it takes to make it fast, reliable, and cost effective.

You can hold a technical conversation with a SOC analyst and turn around and explain the same thing to a Sales team in plain English. You've been waiting for a role where that combination of skills actually matters. Still reading? Great.

This role isn't for all PMs. Yes, all the standard PM things apply: plan, prioritize, communicate, and own a roadmap, build relationships, and become the authority on how internal teams and customers use your platform.

If you get your energy from untangling how security data flows through a platform at scale and turning that into a roadmap that makes customers safer, you'll thrive here.

What Expel can do for you Give you clear ownership of a product area with measurable impact on customer value and business outcomes.
