Product Manager

Posted Jun 24

If you’re like us, you agree that open source software is a wonderful and unique gift that the community of software developers across the world have given to each other. At FOSSA, we want to proliferate its usage with our software supply chain management platform that helps our customers know what licenses, vulnerabilities, and dependencies go into their software as they utilize open source software packages. And we won’t rest until all companies, big and small, love and feel as comfortable with using open source as we are.

FOSSA is a rapidly growing series-B company with a truly distributed team. While our roots are in San Francisco, our growing team has members in several countries across many time zones. We’re always working to find the perfect balance of effective approaches to distributed work, while maintaining the direct personal connections that help us work better together and love our jobs.

Your Mission:

FOSSA’s mission is to help companies accelerate open source adoption. The FOSSA platform reduces software supply chain risk at scale for some of the largest and most advanced companies on the planet. We’re looking for a Product Manager to join the PM team. The Product team works directly with both customers and internal teams to deliver real impact to our customers. The PM team is a small team where each member has a significant amount of responsibility and autonomy to drive change. Critical responsibilities include being the product expert, managing and defining your part of the roadmap, and gathering first-hand information from customers.

FOSSA is a product that lives at the intersection of Security, Compliance, and Engineering. Naturally, this role requires a large amount of developer empathy and technical depth. If you love getting in the details of developer tools and workflows, then this might be a good fit for you. In this role, you will work cross-functionally with UX, Engineering, Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success teams to guide features from conception to launch and iteration. That means you’ll have significant ownership of the backlog and opportunity to have an outsized impact.

In this role you will:

  • Be your team's eyes and ears in the market, talking to customers and deeply understanding their needs and the broader market context.
  • Partner with your engineering counterparts to develop a strategy and build a roadmap to address our customer market.
  • Drive project impact end-to-end, from designing new features to address customer needs to working with sales, marketing, and customer success to sell those features, get feedback from the market, and measure their impact on the success of our business.
  • Become an expert in developer tools, enterprise engineering organizations, and the developer tools market.

About you:

  • You have experience building enterprise B2B SaaS and on-premises products and driving feature adoption at enterprise customers.
  • You have a technical background working with developer and/or security tools. A CS degree is not required, but you will be talking to developers all day about open source dependencies and security/compliance issues. You should be able to understand how these tools work. 
  • You are capable of owning and making critical decisions – driving those decisions end to end beyond engineering through sales and post-sales to our customers.
  • You have 3+ years of product management experience – ideally at a high growth startup. 

FOSSA Benefits include:

  • Amazing team culture and environment
  • Named by Built In as Best Start-up to work for 2024 and Forbes 2022
  • Competitive salary and equity package
  • Unlimited PTO

FOSSA is an equal opportunity employer. All applicants will be considered for employment without attention to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran or disability status.
