SENIOR PRODUCT MANAGER (FIRST PM) WHO WE ARE Vivid is building the first Resilience Posture Management platform. Our AI continuously maps your full recovery stack - across backups, infrastructure, recovery plans, and dependencies to provide real-time visibility into what will recover and what won’t, tests your recovery capabilities, and proactively identifies and fixes risks before it’s too late. For the first time, organizations can truly understand and manage their recovery risk - transforming resilience from a wishful assumption into a managed capability. ABOUT THE ROLE We’re looking for our First Product Manager, with a strong technical background — someone who thinks like an engineer, operates like an owner, and is driven by solving real customer problems at depth. In this role you will help define and scale a deeply technical, enterprise-grade platform focused on resilience, posture management, and detection across cloud environments. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role. You’ll work directly with founders, engineers, and customers to define what we build — and why. You’ll be driving product decisions at their source. RESPONSIBILITIES - Own product problems end-to-end: discovery, definition, and delivery - Work directly with enterprise customers (CISO’s) to understand real-world pain points - Investigate customer environments (cloud, infra, backups, IAM, etc.) to uncover gaps - Translate complex technical problems into clear use cases and product requirements - Break down solutions into milestones and deliverables engineers can execute on - Define product logic and rules (e.g., detection logic, posture insights) - Prioritize based on impact and urgency, not process - Partner closely with engineering on architecture, tradeoffs, and execution - Continuously refine the product based on usage, feedback, and data REQUIREMENTS - 5+ years of Product Management experience in B2B SaaS - Strong technical background — former Software Engineer / SRE / DevOps / Platform Engineer - Experience building complex systems for enterprise customers - Hands-on approach — comfortable going deep into systems, not just writing specs - Proven ability to take ambiguous problems and turn them into structured solutions - Startup experience — ability to operate in fast-paced, unstructured environments, is an advantage TECHNICAL BACKGROUND You should be comfortable discussing and analyzing: - Cloud infrastructure - Kubernetes and modern platform tooling (e.g., K8s, Datadog, Terraform) - Identity & Access (IAM) and cloud networking (VPCs, regions, security groups) - Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or equivalent) WHY JOIN - First PM — shape the product from the ground up - Work directly with founders and early engineering team - Solve deep technical problems in cloud and resilience - High ownership, fast execution, minimal bureaucracy - Build a product used by large enterprise customers
