About your team and your mission

As a Senior Product Manager, Platform, you will join the Product team working on the Core platform, the layer that every GitGuardian product runs on: authentication and access (SSO, SAML, SCIM, RBAC), audit logs, billing, notifications and the self-hosted deployment experience. Your scope splits roughly 70% Core platform and 30% Self-Hosted, and you will own it end to end, from discovery to adoption.

This role sits at the crossroads of platform and revenue: the decisions you make on access, security and self-hosted adoption directly shape whether GitGuardian's largest customers can use the product at all, and whether they can run it smoothly in their own environment.

Your day-to-day will split roughly 40% strategic work (roadmap, trade-offs, stakeholder alignment), 30% research (customer discovery, data analysis, technical investigation) and 30% execution (specs, prioritization, shipping). You will work closely with Engineering, Platform/SRE, Sales and CSM teams, and you will be expected to hold your own in technical conversations rather than relying on an intermediary.

Your main responsibilities will be to:

• Own the Core platform roadmap (SSO/SAML/SCIM, RBAC, notifications, audit logs, billing, AWS & GCP Marketplace, GGBridge, etc…) and the Self-Hosted roadmap (deployment, upgrades, version support, parity with SaaS).

• Lead discovery directly with enterprise stakeholders (DevOps, Security, AppSec, Platform/SRE) to turn field feedback, Sales and CSM escalations into clear product decisions rather than one-off fixes.

• Unblock and accelerate revenue by resolving the platform gaps (RBAC, SSO/SCIM, notifier parity) currently constraining specific named enterprise accounts.

• Drive self-hosted version adoption and upgrade success, reducing friction for customers running GitGuardian in air-gapped or highly controlled environments.

• Define and track the metrics that matter for platform health and adoption, using data to validate or challenge your own assumptions.

• Prioritize explicitly between enterprise commitments, run/support load, and platform technical debt, protecting the platform's long-term health rather than just reacting to the loudest request.

• Partner with Engineering and Platform/SRE on architecture-level decisions, bringing a genuine technical point of view to the table.

You will have real autonomy and lateral visibility across the company: this is a role with a direct line to revenue, at a scale most product managers don't get to work at this early in a scale-up, including Fortune 500 customers. GitGuardian's product practice is also AI-native: you're expected to use agentic tools across your own workflow, not just talk about AI as a feature.

About you

If you think you match at least 70% of these criteria, please apply!

Here's what we consider essential for success in this role:

• 5+ years of Product Management experience

• Significant experience in B2B SaaS Product Management on genuinely complex, technical products, ideally including deployment, installation or adoption topics.

• Proven experience working with enterprise customers: complex environments, security requirements, multiple stakeholders and long sales cycles. You're comfortable leading discovery directly with DevOps, Security, AppSec or Platform/SRE stakeholders.

• Real technical depth: you can read an API contract, logs or a technical configuration unaided, and hold a credible conversation with Engineering, Platform or SRE teams without an intermediary. This is not a generalist PM role.

• 2+ years of experience as a Software Engineer, or in a DevOps, Infrastructure or Self-Hosted product environment; direct Self-Hosted experience is a strong plus.

• Strong stakeholder management skills: you know how to align Product, Engineering, Sales and customer-facing teams, adapt your communication by audience, and drive decisions when interests diverge.

• Ability to prioritize explicitly between enterprise commitments, operational/run load and platform technical debt, rather than just reacting to the most visible request.

• Comfortable with data: you define product success metrics yourself, read dashboards and funnels, and use both quantitative and qualitative signals to make decisions.

• An AI-native mindset: you already use AI/agentic tools to augment or automate parts of your own workflow, and you're curious to keep experimenting.

• Ownership, autonomy and business judgment: you take projects end to end, connect your day-to-day work to company-level impact, and take accountability for your mistakes.

• Fluent English (GitGuardian's company language).

The following skills would strengthen your application but aren't required:

• Previous experience in a startup or scale-up environment, comfortable with less structured, fast-changing contexts.

• Fluency in French.
