Head of Product

ABOUT THE ROLE

We're hiring a Head of Product to own Compyl's product vision, strategy, and execution end-to-end, including direct ownership of our agentic AI layer.

We're building AI capabilities that move beyond evidence collection and risk dashboards toward autonomous remediation and multi-step workflow orchestration. Whoever steps into this role will have real, lasting ownership over how AI is built across the product. This is not a bolt-on feature, it's a foundational shift in how Compyl delivers value, and no competitor has fully unlocked it yet.

This is a hands-on leadership role. You'll set direction, but you'll also stay close to customers, roadmap tradeoffs, delivery timelines, and outcomes. Success means translating real customer pain into clear priorities, shipping high-quality product consistently, and raising the bar for how product decisions are made across the company.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Own Product Strategy & Vision
  • Define and evolve Compyl's long-term product vision and roadmap, aligned to the company strategy, customer needs, and market opportunity
  • Translate high-level strategy into clear, prioritized initiatives with measurable outcomes
  • Balance near-term execution with long-term platform thinking

Lead Compyl's Agentic AI Layer
  • Own the strategy, sequencing, and execution of Compyl's AI layer, from initial agentic workflows to full autonomous remediation.
  • Define how AI agents interact with the core GRC platform, integrations, and customer environments in a defensible, auditable way.
  • Partner with Engineering to establish the architecture and data foundations that make multi-step AI orchestration possible at scale.
  • Set the bar for what "practitioner-grade AI" means in GRC, ensuring every AI-driven action is explainable and trustworthy.

Lead Product Execution
  • Own roadmap planning, prioritization, and delivery in close partnership with Engineering.
  • Work closely with Sales and Marketing to support positioning, packaging, pricing, and go-to-market readiness.
  • Ensure product initiatives are scoped clearly, sequenced effectively, and delivered with quality.
  • Establish strong product discovery and validation practices before committing engineering resources.
  • Stay deeply connected to customers, prospects, and the field, especially enterprise security and GRC leaders

Build & Scale the Product Organization
  • Lead and develop Product Managers and Product Designers; define clear roles, expectations, and career paths.
  • Establish product rituals, operating cadence, and decision-making frameworks that scale with the company.
  • Raise the bar for product thinking, communication, and accountability across the org.


WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
  • 10+ years of product management experience, including senior leadership roles building enterprise SaaS platforms.
  • Demonstrated experience driving product strategy in risk, compliance, security, governance, or adjacent regulated domains.
  • Proven track record translating regulatory frameworks and customer obligations into scalable, policy-driven product capabilities.
  • Experience with AI/ML product development, ideally agentic systems, LLM-powered workflows, or autonomous process automation in a B2B context.
  • Experience owning and evolving a complex, multi-tenant platform with a strong point of view on modularity, extensibility, and long-term architecture.
  • Highly analytical and outcome-driven; comfortable using qualitative customer insight and quantitative data to drive prioritization and roadmap decisions.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional alignment across Engineering, Customer Experience, Sales, and executive leadership in a high-growth environment.
  • Experience scaling product organizations and operating models in a Series A-C SaaS company.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity participation at a Series A inflection point
  • Comprehensive paid benefits


WHY COMPYL
  • Own the AI roadmap: Compyl is building an agentic AI layer on top of its compliance platform, moving from evidence collection to autonomous remediation. This hire owns that from day one.
  • Category-defining market: GRC and automated compliance is one of the fastest-growing segments in enterprise software. The tailwinds are structural, not cyclical.
  • Real product, real traction: Healthy customer growth, a platform built by practitioners who understand the buyer.
  • Series A momentum: Backed by Venture Guides, Contour Venture Partners, and Armory Square Ventures, with the capital and conviction to scale aggressively.
  • Direct access and visibility: Report to the CEO. Your strategy is seen, debated, and rewarded at the highest levels of the organization.
  • Meaningful equity: Significant equity participation at a valuation inflection point.
  • Autonomy, no bureaucracy: No micromanagement. Co-founders as partners, not gatekeepers. You are trusted as the expert.
