We are looking for a Senior Technical Product Manager II to help build and ship DigitalOcean ’s Security Products with high execution quality and clear customer communication. This role sits at the intersection of security product strategy and engineering delivery, turning customer needs and security outcomes into well-scoped work, crisp requirements, and shippable increments.

You will partner closely with engineering and UX to drive backlog health, delivery rhythm, dependency management, and release readiness across one or more Security Products workstreams, while also strengthening how we communicate Security Products and incident updates. This includes producing clear written narratives and launch assets, and creating reusable templates, checklists, and stakeholder workflows that keep product launches and incident response communications consistent, accurate, and timely in partnership with Corporate Communications, Product Marketing, and Developer Relations.

You will report to the Head of Security Products, who owns overall portfolio strategy and the broader Security voice.

What You’ll Do:

• Own the end-to-end execution of one or more Security Products workstreams, translating strategy and customer needs into clear requirements, sequencing, and shippable increments.
• Serve as the technical product owner for your scope by maintaining a healthy backlog, writing high-quality user stories and acceptance criteria, and keeping engineering unblocked through fast decisions and clear tradeoffs.
• Partner deeply with engineering leadership to drive delivery planning, estimates, dependency management, and release readiness, with a focus on predictable outcomes and minimal rework.
• Collaborate with UX and UI to design simple security experiences in the DigitalOcean console and API, then convert designs into actionable requirements, workflows, and instrumentation needs.
• Work cross-functionally across Security, IAM, Networking, Support, Billing, and service teams to ensure integrated customer journeys, clear ownership boundaries, and clean remediation paths.
• Define and maintain release criteria for your scope, including quality bars, rollout approach, customer readiness inputs, and internal enablement requirements.
• Produce clear written narratives and launch assets that explain customer value, expected behavior, and operational considerations, in partnership with Corporate Commun
