About the Role Veeam is looking for a high-agency, hands-on Principal Product Manager to help define what data and AI trust looks like in the agentic era. AI is a generational discontinuity: autonomous agents now read, modify, and delete enterprise data at machine speed, and the AI factories behind them increasingly run as stateful, cloud-native workloads on Kubernetes — from AI pipelines and model artifacts to the vector databases powering RAG. The infrastructure to deploy AI exists; the infrastructure to trust it is still being built. As data resilience, data security, and AI governance converge on the Veeam DataAI Command Platform, we need a builder who can take ideas from 0 to 1 at that intersection. You’ll join a friendly, fast-moving team of builders who win together and move fast. This is a senior individual contributor role — there are no direct reports, and your impact comes from what you build, ship, and influence, not from the size of an org chart. You’ll thrive here if you love building and are energized by ambiguity. What You’ll Do • Bridge data resilience, security, and AI. Connect the dots between data resilience, data security posture, and AI governance — identifying where they converge and defining products that keep customers resilient, secure, and AI-ready. • Seize the agentic AI opportunity. Shape new use cases for protecting and securing AI workloads — especially in Kubernetes environments — from detecting risky agent activity to undoing AI mistakes with precise, clean, verified recovery. • Roll up your sleeves with engineering. Work shoulder-to-shoulder with globally distributed development teams on use-case architecture and platform hardening — from authentication and logging to secrets management — and tease out the minimum viable product. • Champion security and compliance as deal accelerators. Partner cross-functionally to triage security findings into fixable work and drive compliance (e.g., SOC 2, STIG, NIST, VPAT) that unblocks regulated and public-sector deals. • Own the “why.” Articulate why we are building what we’re building, and bring engineers, customers, and leadership along once the merits are clear. • Educate customers and the field. Partner with sales and lead customers to articulate and validate the value proposition, build compelling demos and proofs of concept, and evangelize at analyst and community events. • Innovate in the eyes of the customer. Use what you learn from customers to lead the developmen
