Senior Product Manager (Open-Source) Full-time

About r2c
Our mission is to make world-class software security available to everyone. This means building program analysis tools that are open source, easy to use, powerful, and fast. It also means building a team with security expertise and a passion for great developer experiences. Most of all, it means working with honesty and respect in a diverse community of dreamers and builders. We’ve redefined static analysis tooling by committing to all of these, and turned our project, Semgrep, into an essential safeguard for code at Snowflake, Dropbox, and more.

About the role
Your mission will be to turn Semgrep into the world’s most popular open-source static analysis tool. As a Senior Product Manager for the Semgrep command line team, you will find and set the north star for this open-source and community-focused work. You’ll collaborate with r2c’s engineers, program-analysis experts, security researchers, and marketing team to drive the success of your product. Semgrep has a vibrant community of external contributors and users who you’ll engage with daily (see our r2c.dev/slack).

Through r2c’s culture of collaboration and impact, you’ll see, and influence, the decisions that make an early-stage startup successful. As a member of a small product team, your contributions and decisions will affect every aspect of what we build and do. You will help mature and grow the product team as it defines “great” in the security and developers tools space.

• Act as product owner for the OSS product by establishing a vision, defining measurable goals, and tracking progress through rapid iteration
• Direct and help drive the growth of our product organization through the coaching of other product managers, hiring, and strategy discussion

What we offer
Our goal is to competitively and fairly compensate every r2cer with a system that equally rewards those who are vocal and those who are less comfortable making demands during the final steps of the hiring process.

We update these based on market data to make sure they’re above the average for comparable roles.

We also invest in our employees’ well-being and long term success with comprehensive health plans, generous vacation time, 401k matching, learning stipends, and more. Our benefits are for everyone, so that you’re taken care of, and we work with individuals to make sure they have what they need, whether that’s quiet work space, adjusted hours, or any other accommodation.

Who we are
We have people from France and the Philippines, physics and philosophy, formal methods research and full fledged corporations. We’re new parents and new grads, aspiring authors and aspiring Americans, dog lovers and dogfooders. We get together often to bike, bake, and meet up in parks. In our interactions, we believe respect and honesty go hand in hand, and prioritize both.
