Senior Product Manager

** Overview*
* Do you want to help organizations secure the way modern software is built, delivered, and operated

Software development has fundamentally changed. Open-source dependencies, AI-assisted development, cloud-native architectures, automated build pipelines, and complex software supply chains now span thousands of developers, systems, repositories, and services. These changes create enormous productivity gains, but they also introduce new risks that security teams and developer organizations need help understanding, prioritizing, and reducing.

We are building the next generation of Microsoft Defender capabilities that help customers protect the software development lifecycle, from source code and dependencies through build systems, development environments, AI-assisted workflows, deployment pipelines, runtime environments, and incident response.

As a Senior Product Manager, you will own important customer scenarios and product investments within Microsoft Defender's software supply chain protection portfolio. You will work closely with engineering, design, security research, Git Hub, Azure, Windows, and customer-facing teams to define requirements, prioritize roadmap work, and deliver product capabilities that help customers secure modern development environments.

This is a technical product role that requires strong customer empathy, product judgment, execution discipline, and the ability to partner effectively across teams. Success requires turning complex security and developer workflow problems into clear product requirements, measurable outcomes, and high-quality customer experiences.
