Senior Staff Product Manager, Browser Control Platform
About The Position
This role owns the foundation that lets other software drive Firefox: the secure, reliable connection an outside tool or another team uses to act inside the browser, and the building blocks they call to do it. It enables the teams building on it — internal teams, outside AI tools — to create their own products on top. This role owns the shared layer and the strategy for it. It’s a hands-on, technical role in a fast-moving, greenfield space, so it’s as much strategy as execution. The opportunity is broad: internal teams (Smart Window, New Products’ automated tools), outside AI tools and their users, and web developers. The three share much of the underlying technology, but each reaches its market in a different way. The mandate is to figure out what to go after, and in what order.
Requirements
- A product-minded engineer, or a very technical PM who can drive a technical product.
- Developer-space experience, with the range to think about consumers and internal platforms.
- Comfortable setting strategy in ambiguity; own a technical contract other teams depend on.
- Strong instincts on security and trust.
