About The Position

Nominal is building a Hardware Intelligence Platform for engineers working on complex physical systems. Enterprise customers use the platform on critical hardware programs and need confidence in how their data is secured, governed, and audited.

The role makes powerful controls approachable so organizations can adopt and scale the platform with confidence. The PM owns delivery of this product area, with scope that may grow to include shaping which security and governance problems are addressed first. The role involves translating ambiguous security requirements into usable experiences and working across product, engineering, sales, and customer-facing teams.
