About the Role We are seeking a Senior Product Manager, Application Security to own Zeta’s Application Security product and program end-to-end. You will set strategy, prioritize the roadmap, and drive delivery of an enterprise-grade AppSec capability that protects Zeta’s platform, data, and customers, while enabling engineering teams to ship with confidence. This role sits at the intersection of product, security, and platform engineering. You will turn our Application Security vision into a system based on secure-by-design practices across the SDLC, AI-assisted threat modeling and code review, CI/CD enforcement, vulnerability prioritization and remediation at scale, and executive-ready risk visibility. Success means security is invisible when it should be, and highly visible when it must be.
