Product Manager (Identity & Access Management / IAM)

What You'll Do:

Research & Requirements Discovery

• Conduct deep stakeholder research across product teams, support, engineering, security, and customers to identify actual IAM needs and pain points
• Translate diverse requirements into clear priorities - deciding what matters most and why
• Validate assumptions through customer interviews, support ticket analysis, and usage data
• Identify gaps between current capabilities and what different user types actually need

Own the IAM Product Strategy

• Own the vision and roadmap for Gcore's IAM platform, balancing security, usability, scalability, and time-to-value
• Define and evolve core IAM primitives: identities, organizations, roles, permissions, access policies, and authorization flows - designed for reuse across product lines
• Make IAM decisions that scale across multiple products, teams, and customer types

Implementation & Delivery

• Drive implementation of enterprise-level features like advanced access control systems, audit logging, SSO/SAML integration, and compliance requirements
• Partner closely with Engineering and Security to implement high-quality IAM capabilities that meet real-world security standards
• Ensure implementations include proper audit trails, logging, and compliance documentation
• Focus on small, valuable releases rather than big-bang projects - ship iteratively and learn continuously

Platform-Wide Integration

• Champion IAM integration across all Gcore products and services - this is a system that connects everything
• Act as a product partner for internal teams, making it easy for them to adopt IAM capabilities without slowing their delivery
• Design IAM APIs, flows, and behaviors that are predictable, well-documented, and straightforward to integrate
• Create reference implementations and integration examples that teams can follow

Adoption & Continuous Improvement

• Drive adoption through clear documentation, reference flows, and examples for both customers and internal teams
• Define success metrics (e.g., auth success rate, integration time, permission coverage, audit completeness) and use them to guide iteration
• Own customer-facing changes end-to-end, including migrations and rollouts, with a strong focus on reliability and trust

AI-Driven Product Development (Plus)

• Actively use AI tools to accelerate discovery, spec writing, prototyping, and collaboration with Engineering
• Explore AI-assisted approaches to improve developer experience, IAM configuration, and operational workflows

Qualifications

What We Are Looking For:

Must-Have:

• 3+ years of experience as a Product Manager working on platform, infrastructure, or developer-facing products
• Strong understanding of IAM fundamentals: identity models, roles and permissions, access policies, multi-tenant systems, audit logging, and compliance requirements
• Demonstrated ability to conduct stakeholder research and translate diverse needs into clear product priorities
• Experience implementing enterprise security features (access control, SSO, audit trails, compliance capabilities)
• Experience working with APIs and system-level products; you're comfortable discussing flows, edge cases, and trade-offs with engineers
• Ability to turn ambiguous problems into clear product direction and shipped outcomes
• Strong written communication skills - you can explain complex systems simply to both customers and internal teams

Nice to Have:

• Experience building or owning security - or compliance-sensitive products (e.g., GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2, DORA/NIS2)
• Background in cloud, edge, networking, or security platforms
• Hands-on experience using AI tools in product development or working on AI-adjacent features
• Experience with enterprise customer requirements and B2B compliance needs
