Founding Product Manager

Company: Tracebit

Location: London

Posted: April 11th, 2026

Why we're hiring

Tracebit is helping some of the world’s best security teams at Snyk, Docker, Riot Games and many more to ‘assume breach’ at scale. Tracebit detects intrusions in cloud environments using canaries - decoy assets deployed to deceive attackers.

We're at a massive inflection point and there has never been a more exciting time to join us:

We've built a product that customers want. Now we need someone to help us decide what to build next.

You’ll be our first product manager, working with engineering to identify what will deliver the most value. This isn’t about writing detailed specs or running sprints. You’ll work directly with customers, synthesize their needs, and help the team prioritize ruthlessly. Your success will be measured by what we build and how it impacts our business, not by the artifacts you produce.

Who we're looking for

You have 1-2+ years of PM experience in security. You’ve worked at a security company and understand the domain. You don’t need to be an engineer, but you should grasp how security teams think and what problems they face daily.

You’re analytical and data‑driven. You know how to gather input from customers, usage data, and team discussions, then make clear prioritization calls. You don’t get paralyzed by ambiguity.

You collaborate well with technical teams. You work with engineers to solve problems together, not hand them requirements. You understand technical constraints and use them to make better decisions.

You’re comfortable being hands‑on. You’ll talk to customers weekly, run user research, dig into analytics, create mockups, and help write docs. This is a builder role, not a coordinator role.

You thrive in startup environments. You’re energized by fast iteration and working closely with founders. You’ve experienced the pace of an early‑stage company and know it’s not for everyone.

About the role

Your core focus:

This role is hands‑on. You’ll be in customer calls, in engineering discussions, and in the details. As we grow, there will be opportunities to build a product function, but for now, you’ll be in the weeds with the rest of us.

FAQs

Where is the office?

The whole team works together in an office right next to Warren Street tube station - there are lots of great places to grab lunch nearby.

Are you doing hybrid/remote?

Short answer: No, but flexible on a day to day basis.

Long answer: We are set on building the company on a foundation of an office based culture. We are a very early stage company and think that we’ll build the best company at the fastest pace we can whilst also having a lot of fun by physically working together 5 days a week. On a case by case basis (e.g. leaving early for a holiday, staying home for a builder, working remote for a few days to visit family, etc. etc.) we’re very reasonable and flexible. We respect that this is not for everyone.

What are the working hours like?

We think 9am-6pm will bring a great cadence to work. As a Founding Product Manager there will definitely be times you need to pick up work outside of these hours, we’re keen to limit this where we can but also offer flexibility in return.

Can you sponsor visas?

We are not able to sponsor visas for this role.
