Principal Product Manager, Agentic AI Platform

What You'll Do: Define a multi‑year, company‑level Agentic AI strategy that spans Drata product lines and major initiatives, balancing bold bets with pragmatic, stepwise execution. Translate that vision into clear portfolios, roadmaps, and investment frameworks for AI agents, copilots, and automation across GRC workflows. Continuously scan the AI landscape (models, tool use, orchestrators, evaluation methods, safety approaches) and selectively bring agentic innovations into Drata in a way that’s durable, compliant, and value‑creating for customers. Build and execute the AI platform strategy at Drata that enables other teams to build AI features. Lead end‑to‑end product discovery and delivery for AI agents—from problem framing and agent design to deployment, guardrails, and post‑launch optimization. Define success metrics and evaluation frameworks for agents and drive rigorous experimentation to improve them. Partner closely with Engineering and AI/ML leads on architecture, model selection, tool/plugin design, retrieval strategies, and constraints that keep agents safe, observable, and debuggable in production. Design and evolve MCP‑based and related ecosystems of tools, actions, and data connectors that agents can use to take safe actions on behalf of customers. Define patterns for agent orchestration (multi‑agent vs. single‑agent, planner‑executor patterns, routing, human‑in‑the‑loop flows) and codify them into reusable building blocks for the broader product org. Ensure that AI agents operate reliably in real‑world enterprise environments—understanding identity, permissions, rate limits, data locality, and audit requirements. Work with other product pillars to embed AI agents into their roadmaps and ship cohesive, end‑to‑end workflows instead of isolated features. Create and run cross‑functional rituals that keep AI investments aligned with company goals and customer value. Partner with GRC experts, Sales, CS, and Solutions to capture customer needs, validate use cases, and ensure AI agents align with real audit, risk, and compliance workflows. Spend meaningful time with customers, prospects, and partners (including auditors) to deeply understand jobs‑to‑be‑done, constraints, and trust expectations for AI in GRC.Use qualitative and quantitative insights to prioritize opportunities where AI/automation materially reduces customer pain or drives scale, not just create novelty. Raise the bar on AI product quality, UX, explainability, and transparency—ensuring agents are intuitive, controllable, and aligned with customer risk postures. Create operating models, frameworks, and standards for how the product org builds and measures AI products. Mentor and coach senior PMs working on AI‑related areas; help them sharpen strategy, storytelling, and metrics while modeling resilience and ownership in high‑ambiguity environments. Represent Drata’s AI vision internally and externally—with customers, partners, analysts, and the broader ecosystem—to shape how the market thinks about AI in GRC.What You'll Bring 10+ years of product management experience, with significant time as a senior/lead PM owning complex, multi‑team product areas.3–5+ years building and shipping AI/ML or LLM‑powered products, with at least 2+ years directly working on agentic systems, copilots, or autonomous workflows in production. Demonstrated experience designing, deploying, and iterating AI agents in production, including setting up evaluation pipelines, guardrails, and observability. Deep understanding of the agentic ecosystem and Model Context Protocol (MCP) or similar paradigms. Strong technical fluency: comfortable reading API docs, reasoning about data and model tradeoffs, and partnering with engineering on architecture‑level decisions. Track record of defining multi‑year product strategy in ambiguous or emerging domains and influencing exec‑level decisions. Experience operating in B2B SaaS; familiarity with security, compliance, or risk domains is preferred but not required. Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to tell a compelling story, align diverse stakeholders, and make complex AI concepts accessible. Demonstrated customer‑obsession, with a history of turning customer insights into high‑impact product bets and shipping iteratively to learn.
