Job Description:
Darktrace is a global leader in AI-driven cybersecurity, helping organizations stay ahead of evolving threats every day. Darktrace was built on a genuinely differentiated idea: that Adaptive AI could detect and respond to novel, real-time cyber threats. That approach matters more than ever in the era of AI. Today, our customers depend on us to stay ahead. At Darktrace, we are energized by that responsibility. We work across teams and rally around a shared goal. We own outcomes end to end - step in, step up and see things through without waiting to be asked. We make decisions with urgency, say the hard thing, and hold each other to high standards with care and directness. We move first and learn fast anticipating where our customers are going next, continuously challenging ourselves. We invest in the skills, learning and opportunities that help people deliver at the level their roles demand, and reward the aptitude and curiosity to grow beyond them.
Our Values: Own It | Win as One | Raise Our Bar | Move First. Learn Fast
Role:
An opportunity to shape the future of a Gartner Magic Quadrant leading product.
Darktrace / HYBRID NETWORK is our Network Detection and Response offering: multi-layered AI that understands normal behaviour across an organisation's entire digital infrastructure and surfaces the anomalies that signature-based tools miss. We are looking for a Product Manager to own its direction. The brief is intentionally broad. Your experience as a Product Manager may already come alongside expertise in network security from experience as a network or security engineer, solutions engineer or related product manager. Or you may have technical expertise in a different area entirely, but be interested in the deep challenge that is network security.

- Work with Product Marketing on positioning, launch planning and go-to-market strategy, ensuring the narrative reflects the technical reality.
- Enable technical go-to-market teams through training, demonstrations and accurate product documentation.
