Role Description

Dropbox is expanding its capabilities in AI-powered security, content access governance, and data loss prevention (DLP) to help SMB and mid-market businesses secure and manage their content with enterprise-grade protection. Following our acquisition of Nira, we have taken the first steps to integrate its data access governance technology into Dropbox Dash. Now, we are focused on deepening this integration across the Dropbox portfolio and expanding our security offering in the broader data access governance, DLP and AI Security markets.

We are looking for a Staff Product Manager to lead this next phase — defining the strategy and key capabilities, shaping the roadmap, and scaling a new security business within Dropbox. This is a 0 → 1 opportunity to establish Dropbox as a leader in AI and Data security for SMBs and mid-market companies, bringing AI-driven access governance, insider risk protection, and compliance automation to businesses that need it most.

Responsibilities

  • Build next-generation security products – Shape and deliver innovative solutions by integrating Nira’s governance capabilities into Dropbox and driving a standalone security offering for the broader market.
  • Lead an AI-driven roadmap – Define and launch intelligent features that use AI and automation to streamline access control, enforce real-time DLP, and proactively detect security risks.
  • Expand Dropbox’s impact in the market – Identify opportunities in the SMB and mid-market security space, craft a clear product vision, and accelerate adoption with a differentiated value proposition.
  • Deliver breakthrough product experiences – Partner with engineering and design to launch automated access reviews, AI-powered security insights, and compliance workflows that raise the bar on security.
  • Turn insights into action – Work directly with customers to uncover their toughest data governance and AI security challenges, and translate those needs into high-impact product features.
  • Drive seamless execution – Collaborate across engineering, security, compliance, and go-to-market teams to launch products that meet global standards (SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, etc.) and delight customers.

Requirements

  • Hands-on Security Product Expertise – 7+ years of product management experience, including 3+ years building solutions in Access Governance, DLP, DSPM, SSPM, or AI Security.
  • Deep Domain Knowledge – Experience tackling data and IP protection challenges, especially in Access Management and DLP for Google Workspace, Microsoft OneDrive, Dropbox, Box, or similar SaaS platforms.
  • Customer-First Mindset – Passion for solving real customer pain points, with a track record of shipping security products that are powerful yet simple to use.
  • Proven 0 → 1 Builder – You’ve taken security products from idea to launch, driving adoption and impact in environments ranging from enterprise SaaS to fast-moving startups.
  • AI + Security Innovation – Experience applying AI/ML to security challenges—automating access controls, detecting risks, and strengthening data protection.
  • Cross-Functional Partner – Comfortable working side by side with engineering, security, GTM, and legal teams, blending technical know-how with product vision to ship great outcomes.

Preferred Qualifications

  • BS or MS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Business, Applied Mathematics or Statistics, or relevant field. MBA is a plus.
  • Experience in building and scaling data ingestion systems and data platforms
  • Experience working with AI/SaaS products or platforms such as Chatgpt, Gemini, Claude and understanding of data security risks with using AI and SaaS products.

For government reporting purposes, we ask candidates to respond to the below self-identification survey. Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

As set forth in Dropbox’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
