About the role

About the Role

Harness is looking for a Principal Product Manager to define the future of Agentic Application Security. You will lead our Code Security and AI Security Agents portfolio, spanning static application security testing (SAST), AI-powered vulnerability triage, and autonomous remediation.

As AI coding agents transform how software is built, security must evolve beyond detecting vulnerabilities to autonomously investigating, validating, and fixing them at machine speed.

We are looking for a product leader who can help build autonomous security engineering systems that understand code, reason about security risks, generate secure fixes, and continuously validate outcomes across modern development environments.

  • Autonomous Security Agents: Define and build AI agents for threat detection, vulnerability investigation, intelligent triage, and automated remediation.
  • Agentic Security Workflows: Design end-to-end workflows where agents investigate findings, correlate security signals, assess risk, recommend actions, generate fixes, and verify outcomes.
  • Agent Skills & Integrations: Build extensible agent capabilities using skills, plugins, MCP, tool calling, and integrations across security scanners, repositories, IDEs, SCM, and CI/CD platforms.
  • Autonomous Remediation: Drive agent-powered code fixes, dependency upgrades, test execution, validation, and pull request generation with appropriate human oversight.
  • Agentic Developer Ecosystem: Integrate security capabilities into AI coding assistants and autonomous development platforms, enabling security to operate alongside developers and coding agents.
  • Product Strategy & Execution: Own product vision, differentiation, roadmap, customer adoption, and business outcomes while partnering with engineering, security research, and go-to-market teams.
What We're Looking For
  • 8+ years of product management experience in AI Developer Tools, Application Security, DevSecOps, or developer platforms.
  • Hands-on experience building or delivering AI agents that autonomously plan, execute tasks, invoke tools, and complete multi-step workflows.
  • Strong understanding of LLM orchestration, agent skills, plugins, MCP, tool calling, and agentic execution frameworks.
  • Experience designing intelligent workflows for investigation, decision-making, automation, and iterative validation.
  • Understanding of vulnerability management, security detection, risk prioritization, remediation, and developer workflows.
  • Ability to translate emerging AI capabilities into reliable, secure, enterprise-grade products.
  • Proven track record of driving product strategy, technical execution, customer adoption, and measurable business outcomes.
Nice to Have
  • Experience building autonomous coding agents, AI-native developer tools, or security automation platforms.
  • Background in application security testing, SAST, SCA, vulnerability management, or code scanning.
  • Familiarity with multi-agent architectures, agent memory, sandbox environments, and feedback-driven execution.
  • Knowledge of code property graphs (CPG), dataflow analysis, reachability, and threat modeling.
  • Background in software engineering, security engineering, or AI/ML.
Why Join Harness?

Help define the next generation of application security, where intelligent agents don't just identify vulnerabilities but autonomously investigate, remediate, and verify them.

At Harness, you'll work at the intersection of AI, application security, and software engineering to build security products designed for a world where humans and AI agents develop software together.
