The Mission

Security and performance are the twin pillars of the Acquia Cloud Platform. We are seeking a Product Manager to serve as a functional driver for the native integration of our global Edge services and security suite. In this role, you will be a key partner to our strategic leads and engineering teams, focusing on the operational success of a frictionless security experience. You will work in lockstep with our senior architects to translate complex edge-native security capabilities into the fabric of our Unified AI-Native Cloud Platform. Your goal is to move beyond traditional bolt-on security models by streamlining advanced protections—ensuring that world-class security and content delivery are a seamless, automated part of the Acquia experience.

The Profile

• The Integration Partner: You have a passion for making complex systems feel simple. You understand how to take sophisticated, high-scale security capabilities and translate them into clean requirements that make the engineering implementation seamless.
• The "Shield" Momentum-Builder: You are obsessed with tactical progress. You manage the lifecycle of our Edge services, ensuring that Acquia remains the benchmark for global performance while removing the operational burden from both our customers and our internal teams.
• The Context Architect: You thrive in an Agentic PDLC environment. You provide the high-fidelity "context slices"—threat profiles and security standards—that allow our autonomous development tools to handle routine configuration, rule-tuning, and monitoring.
• The Scalable Peer: You view AI as a teammate that multiplies your impact. You proactively share your security context within the team, ensuring that every migration and value-model is built on a foundation of "Secure-by-Design" logic.

Key Responsibilities

• Functional Edge Support: Support the roadmap for our Edge suite by defining the functional requirements that ensure security and performance are treated as foundational platform features.
• Simplify Security Complexity: Define the workflows that allow our platform to handle the operational friction of security—from automated WAF tuning to proactive DDoS mitigation—reducing manual effort for customers and engineers alike.
• Lifecycle Value Alignment: Partner with the broader team to ensure our Edge and Security features support customer growth. You will guide customers toward adopting the modern, AI-native protections that drive superior, high-availability user experiences.
• Agentic Collaboration: Act as a "Context Contributor" within the team.
