Are you driven to elevate operational excellence and ensure world-class service availability through the power of data? Do you shine in cross-functional collaboration, inspiring teams to deliver exceptional product performance? If so, we have an exciting opportunity just for you!
As the Product Manager for Platformization of Cloud Delivered Security Services (CDSS), you will play a key role in driving effective security outcomes and simplifying operations for customers.
