OPSWAT, a global leader in IT, OT, and ICS critical infrastructure cybersecurity, delivers an end-to-end platform that gives public and private sector organizations and enterprises the critical advantage needed to protect their complex networks, secure their devices, and ensure compliance. Over the last 20 years our commitment to innovative technology has earned the trust of more than 1,700 organizations, governments, and institutions globally, solidifying our role in protecting the world’s critical infrastructure and securing our way of life.
The Position
This is a hands-on, business-owner product leadership role, not a pure strategy or coordination seat. An experienced product manager reports to you, with full people responsibility, and dedicated sandbox and threat-intelligence engineering teams partner with you daily. Aether’s cloud experience runs on a shared platform owned by a peer Director: you own the hunt experience and its business everywhere it runs, and hold the platform to your bar as its most demanding customer. You operate like a general manager, fluent in packaging, pricing models, and discount structures, and conversant in NDR and GDR. You understand the whole business, from sales enablement and field events, where Aether is won, to marketing and channel partners, and hold every investment to a strong ROI. You bring an AI-first mindset, leveraging AI in the day-to-day work of the team to maximize efficiency and output.
Join a pre-IPO, global cybersecurity leader at the forefront of innovation. We protect the unseen — the infrastructure that powers our way of life. OPSWAT protects the world’s critical infrastructure across IT, OT, and ICS environments, trusted by more than 2,000 organizations, governments, and institutions worldwide.
We are seeking an exceptional product leader to own the vision, strategy, and execution of MetaDefender Aether, OPSWAT’s threat hunting, threat intelligence, and next-generation sandbox business. Where prevention answers “is this file safe to admit?”, Aether serves the analysts who ask “what is this, where else is it, and what do I tell my board?” It is the part of our portfolio built to detonate the unknown. This is business ownership of a fast-growing product line. You own the use case and its persona wherever they live (cloud, on-premises and air-gapped, and the free community), along with the packaging, pricing models, and price ladder behind them. You will converge these experiences into one agentic experience built for the analyst, and turn OPSWAT’s unique data into a story the market cannot ignore.
MetaDefender Aether is OPSWAT’s malware analysis, threat hunting, and threat intelligence portfolio: one use case, one analyst persona, every deployment. This role owns that business end to end:
- Threat Hunting in the Cloud: the SOC tier of OPSWAT’s cloud. Zero-day detonation of files no engine has already convicted, YARA retro-hunting, and similarity search to find what was already missed and act on it.
