About the Role

We’re looking for a customer-obsessed product leader to lead 1Password’s Authentication Team as a Staff Product Manager. You will guide Design, Engineering, and Product leaders to prioritize customer problems. We seek individuals who are deep experts on the identity and authentication stack in businesses, with a preference for those with a customer-facing background (support, sales, or customer success) that informed their move into Product.

Our Product philosophy is built on five pillars: Focus and Execution, Customer Empathy, Effective Communication, Go To Market, and Technology. Product plays a highly visible role, critical to our product strategy. As a leader, you will foster excellent cross-departmental relations and represent the company to executive decision-makers and media. You will define and deliver 1Password’s product portfolio strategy, optimize products for business buyers, and be obsessed with user experience. You will collaborate with Engineering and Design counterparts to drive team results.

Join a fast-scaling business with a unique blend of consumer and enterprise customers, launching new products you will define.

How we’re using AI today

Our Engineering, Product, and Design teams thoughtfully integrate AI across the software development lifecycle. This includes AI-assisted coding for engineers, AI-powered synthesis of user research for product managers, and AI-generated mockups for designers. We approach AI with clear principles, human accountability, and rigorous evaluation.

This is a remote opportunity within Canada and the US.

What we're looking for:

• 8+ years of experience owning a product or set of features for businesses of all sizes, responsible for its success.
• Experience growing and measuring the authentication experience of a B2B SaaS product.
• Proven success defining and delivering B2B SaaS products for Admin or IT personas in security or identity domains.
• Strong understanding of Identity and Access Management (IAM) and B2B products with large, complex infrastructure.
• Track record of strategic planning (18-24 months out) with founder-level insight into market dynamics.
• Ability to represent the voice of the customer to motivate the team.
• Executive-level communication experience.
• Experience building a SaaS product sold to enterprise buyers (ideally CISO/CIO/CTO level).
• Ability to prioritize tasks and use data (qualitative and quantitative) for decision-making.
• Excellent presentation skills and experience training internal teams (sales, support, customer success) during product launches.

What you can expect:

• Work with a passionate, highly motivated Product team invested in your success.
• A dynamic, highly collaborative environment.
• Empowerment to contribute to and drive overall product strategy and roadmap priorities.
• Be part of the team driving 1Password’s success to the next level.
• Enjoy working in a fast-paced environment that prioritizes collaboration and an entrepreneurial culture.
