    OPSWAT

    Protecting the World's Critical Infrastructure

    OPSWAT, a global leader in IT, OT, and ICS critical infrastructure cybersecurity, delivers an end-to-end platform that gives public and private sector organizations and enterprises the critical advantage needed to protect their complex networks, secure their devices, and ensure compliance. Over the last 20 years our commitment to innovative technology has earned the trust of more than 1,700 organizations, governments, and institutions globally, solidifying our role in protecting the world's critical infrastructure and securing our way of life.

    Reports to: Chief Product Officer (CPO)

    Scope: Full ownership of the MetaDefender Endpoint portfolio - commercial and community | Partners daily with global R&D | Global / Remote-friendly

    The Position

    Join a pre-IPO, global cybersecurity leader at the forefront of innovation. We protect the unseen - the infrastructure that powers our way of life. OPSWAT protects the world's critical infrastructure across IT, OT, and ICS environments, trusted by more than 2,000 organizations, governments, and institutions worldwide.

    We are seeking an exceptional product leader to own the vision, strategy, and execution of MetaDefender Endpoint - the endpoint foundation that delivers peripheral media protection, advanced compliance, remote access control, vulnerability detection, and patch management to secure critical assets and maintain organizational security. This is a senior leadership role with end-to-end ownership of a broad endpoint portfolio spanning multiple high-value use cases, every endpoint agent flavor across desktop and mobile, a free global community edition, and a platform strategy that other OPSWAT product lines build on. You will set the roadmap, work hands-on with top global R&D teams every day, and build the business and partnerships that scale endpoint across the globe.

    The Product & Portfolio

    MetaDefender Endpoint secures devices inside critical IT and OT networks and powers a portfolio of endpoint use cases. This role owns that portfolio end to end:

    • Peripheral Media Protection: the foundational use case - scanning and sanitizing removable media and peripheral devices before their content can be accessed, protecting devices inside critical IT and OT networks from USB and removable-media threats.
    • Advanced Compliance: continuous endpoint posture and compliance assessment - verifying device health, configuration, and security controls against regulatory frameworks and organizational policy, with audit-ready evidence.
    • Vulnerability Assessment: continuous asset inspection and file-based vulnerability assessment with CVSS-based risk prioritization to surface the vulnerabilities that matter most, before and after software is installed.
    • Patch Management: a strategic growth direction for the company - centralized patch management across on-premises, air-gapped, and cloud environments, automatically patching third-party applications and OS updates on flexible schedules and with audit-ready evidence.
    • Zero Trust Access: real-time device posture and compliance checks that feed continuous, least-privilege, per-application access - layering device health onto identity so every access decision reflects who the user is and whether their device is healthy.
    • Endpoint as a platform: the shared endpoint foundation that OPSWAT's other product lines - such as Managed File Transfer, Network Access Control, and Endpoint Malware Scanning - build their endpoint capabilities on, so each team ships on a single, common endpoint architecture without losing the agility and domain expertise it owns.

    The role owns every flavor of the endpoint agent - from Windows and macOS desktop clients to iOS and Android mobile apps - delivering a consistent endpoint experience across desktop and mobile platforms.

    Beyond the commercial offering, this role also stewards the free MetaDefender Endpoint community - an open, no-cost download that lets anyone experience OPSWAT's technologies firsthand - growing adoption, gathering feedback, and building a pipeline into the commercial portfolio.

    About This Role

    This is a hands-on, technically-engaged product leadership role - not a pure strategy or coordination seat. You own the full endpoint portfolio across its commercial use cases, every agent flavor, and its community edition, and you are accountable for the outcomes: adoption, growth, and customer success. You partner with global R&D on a day-to-day basis - in the details of architecture, prioritization, and release - and you champion the platform strategy that lets multiple use-case teams build on a shared endpoint foundation while preserving each team's speed and expertise. You bring an AI-first mindset, leveraging AI in the day-to-day work of the team to maximize efficiency and output. You build, mentor, and lead a team of product manager, product designer, product marketing, and engineering professionals, set the bar for product excellence, and represent endpoint to customers, partners, and executive leadership.

    What You Will Be Doing

    • Own product vision & strategy: define, refine, and champion the vision and roadmap for the MetaDefender Endpoint portfolio - compliance and patch management, zero trust access, and vulnerability management - aligned to business goals and evolving market conditions.
    • Drive patch and compliance as a growth engine: make centralized, cross-environment patch management (including air-gapped and OT) a flagship direction, and translate it into differentiated roadmap and go-to-market.
    • Champion the endpoint platform: lead the strategy to establish MetaDefender Endpoint as the single architecture that use-case teams (e.g., Managed File Transfer, Network Access Control, and Endpoint Malware Scanning) develop on - enabling reuse and consistency while protecting each team's agility and ownership of its business goals.
    • Own every agent flavor: drive a consistent, high-quality endpoint experience across all agent platforms - Windows and macOS desktop clients and iOS and Android mobile apps.
    • Lead with an AI-first mindset: bring AI into the day-to-day work of the product organization - from research and requirements to analysis and delivery - to maximize efficiency and output across the team.
    • Grow and steward the community edition: own the free MetaDefender Endpoint community experience end to end - adoption, engagement, feedback loops, and conversion into commercial value.
    • Work hands-on with R&D: partner with global R&D teams daily - writing crisp requirements, making trade-offs, and driving execution through to high-quality, timely releases.
    • Build business and partnerships: develop the business case, pricing, and packaging, and cultivate technology and channel partnerships that expand endpoint's reach and ecosystem.
    • Lead market & competitive analysis: stay ahead of emerging trends, assess competitive products, and identify customer needs to inform prioritization and positioning.
    • Drive user-centered development: advocate for the end user by gathering feedback, analyzing usage data, and driving continuous improvement in usability, functionality, and satisfaction.
    • Orchestrate cross-functional delivery: partner closely with engineering, sales, marketing, and support to deliver high-quality releases and seamless integration into the broader OPSWAT portfolio.
    • Track performance: establish clear KPIs, monitor product and adoption performance, and use insights to guide enhancements across both commercial and community.
    • Communicate with stakeholders: clearly articulate strategy, updates, and results to internal teams, executive leadership, and customers - fostering alignment and enthusiasm.
    • Build and lead the team: build, mentor, and lead a high-performing, cross-disciplinary team of product managers, product designers, product marketing, and engineering professionals, setting a strong bar for product craft and execution.

    What We Need From You

    • Product leadership experience: 10+ years in product management with several years leading and growing PM teams, ideally within cybersecurity, endpoint, or infrastructure software.
    • Broad endpoint portfolio ownership: a track record managing a wide range of endpoint use cases - such as compliance, patch management, vulnerability management, and secure/zero-trust access - not a single narrow feature area.
    • Deep domain knowledge: strong grasp of cybersecurity, endpoint security best practices, data protection, threat prevention, patch and vulnerability management, and device posture/compliance.
    • Hands-on and technical: comfortable working shoulder-to-shoulder with R&D day to day, engaging credibly on architecture and trade-offs, and going deep in the product rather than staying at the surface.
    • Multi-platform endpoint experience: experience delivering endpoint or agent software across operating systems and device types - Windows and macOS desktop, and iOS and Android mobile.
    • Platform product thinking: experience building or evolving a shared platform that multiple teams develop on, balancing consistency and reuse with team autonomy and speed.
    • AI-first ways of working: an AI-first mindset - you actively apply AI tools to your own and your team's daily work to move faster and raise quality.
    • Community / product-led growth: experience growing a free, community, or product-led offering and converting adoption into commercial outcomes is a strong plus.
    • Business & partnership builder: demonstrated ability to build the business - pricing, packaging, GTM - and to establish technology and channel partnerships.
    • Track record of delivery: proven experience managing products from concept through launch, with results in user adoption, revenue growth, or market penetration.
    • Analytical & decisive: strong analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills with a data-driven approach.
    • Exceptional communicator: outstanding interpersonal and executive communication skills, enabling collaboration across cross-functional teams and credibility with customers and leadership.
    • Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Business, or a related field; MBA is a plus.
    • Ways of working: familiarity with Agile methodologies or similar frameworks.

    Why You'll Love Working Here

    • Own a strategic, high-visibility portfolio at a pre-IPO, global cybersecurity leader - endpoint sits at the center of compliance, patch, vulnerability, and zero-trust access.
    • Shape a platform: the endpoint architecture and practices you establish will enable product lines across OPSWAT.
    • Run both a commercial business and a global free community that puts OPSWAT technology in the hands of users everywhere.
    • Work hands-on with world-class global R&D teams on products that protect critical infrastructure.
    • Global reach, a high-growth mindset, and the chance to shape products that matter.
    • Attractive compensation with regular performance assessments and flexibility for the right candidate.

    • Self-motivated, adaptable, and comfortable owning a track in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.

    It Would Be Nice If You Had:

    • Experience fine-tuning open-weight LLMs

    MetaDefender Core is OPSWATs file security platform, trusted where the stakes are highest: nuclear plants, defense networks, the banks that move the worlds money. Its a high-performance engine, shipped everywhere from cloud and containers to on-premises and air-gapped deployments.

    This role is for the engineer who would rather design the system than type every line of it: you set the architecture, a fleet of AI agents builds with you - code, tests, docs, in parallel - and you hold the one job that cannot be delegated: knowing what correct looks like, and proving it. Most companies are still debating whether their engineers may use AI. Here, it is the operating model.

    What You Will be Doing

    • Contribute to features end to end: clarify requirements, participate in design discussions, implement, test, debug, and help ship features, with ownership growing as you develop.
    • Use AI as part of your daily engineering workflow: work with tools such as Claude Code and GitHub Copilot to accelerate implementation, testing, debugging, and documentation, while reviewing and validating AI-generated output before it ships.
    • Contribute to the teams AI-assisted development workflow: help improve agent configurations, prompt/context templates (e.g., CLAUDE.md and project rules), MCP integrations, and guardrails.
    • Write and improve tests and quality checks that verify intended behavior, catch regressions, and help make AI-generated code production-ready.
    • Build and share effective AI-assisted engineering practices with the team, including reusable prompts, workflows, and approaches for reviewing AI-generated code.
    • Develop strong debugging skills by investigating issues that cannot easily be delegated to AI, from reproducing bugs and analyzing logs to diagnosing concurrency, OS, and environment-specific problems.
    • Work across Windows and Linux environments, and gain exposure to cloud, containerized, on-premises, and air-gapped deployments.
    • Prototype and evaluate AI-powered product capabilities, such as LLM-assisted analysis, automated triage, or AI-assisted support for new integrations.
    • Collaborate with Product Management and QA to understand requirements, make technical trade-offs, and deliver reliable product features.

    What We Need from You

    • Bachelors degree in a technical field or equivalent practical experience
    • 1+ years of professional experience with a track record of feature ownership.
    • Good understanding of OOP, SOLID principles, and common design patterns
    • Experience with multi-threaded programming and system design
    • Excellent coding and debugging skills, including comfort navigating a large existing codebase and diagnosing issues across OS boundaries (processes, services, permissions)
    • An AI-native development mindset: hands-on experience using AI coding assistants and agentic tools in real development work, with the judgment to review, verify, and test AI-generated code before it ships.
    • Working knowledge of LLM fundamentals: prompt and context design, tool/function calling, evaluating outputs, and data-privacy considerations when using AI on proprietary code
    • Hands-on experience in design reviews
    • Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to clearly articulate technical concepts.
    • Good English is a plus point.
    • Self-motivated, adaptable, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment
    • Development experience on Windows, Linux platforms

    It Would be Nice if You Had

    • A real track record shipping and maintaining production systems, in any tech-stack.
    • Hands-on Rust or C++ - shortens your ramp, does not gate the door
    • Building AI agents or agentic pipelines yourself: tool contracts, structured output, multi-step orchestration
    • Performance profiling; networking (OSI)
    • Cybersecurity concepts, or components of a security product
    • Hands-on experience with DBMS (e.g. SQLite, PostgreSQL)
    • Familiarity with Agile development methodologies

    What Youll Do

    • Design, build, and test SFG in C++ or Rust (Windows/Linux) as the transparent proxy between WAF and backend.
    • Implement the core flow: intercept uploads forward to MetaDefender Core over ICAP return sanitized files, with low latency and high reliability.
    • Build multi-threaded, high-concurrency networking components.
    • Build and use agentic workflows (e.g., Claude Code, autonomous coding agents) daily for coding, testing, and debugging.
    • Work within a Scrum team; collaborate with Product Management; do peer code reviews.

    What We Need

    • Strong OOP background (Java/C#), willing to learn/work in C++ or Rust.
    • Solid multi-threading and network programming skills.
    • Comfort with protocol/network-level concepts (TCP/IP, HTTP, proxying).
    • Genuine interest in using AI tools in your dev workflow.
    • Experience building or using multi-agents
    • Good coding/debugging skills, strong communication, self-motivated.

    Nice to Have

    • ICAP protocol, reverse proxy / gateway experience.
    • REST API design.
    • Agile/Scrum, Git/Bitbucket/Jira/Confluence/TeamCity.
    • DBMS (SQLite, PostgreSQL, etc.).
    • Windows/Linux dev experience.

    Director of Engineering - MetaDefender Managed File Transfer

    Product Engineering

    AMER - Remote, San Francisco, Tampa

    Summary

    OPSWAT, a global leader in IT, OT, and ICS critical infrastructure cybersecurity, delivers an end-to-end platform that gives public and private sector organizations and enterprises the critical advantage needed to protect their complex networks, secure their devices, and ensure compliance. Over the last 20 years our commitment to innovative technology has earned the trust of more than 1,700 organizations, governments, and institutions globally, solidifying our role in protecting the world's critical infrastructure and securing our way of life.

    Director of Engineering - Meta Defender Managed File Transfer

    Reports to: VP, Products

    Protecting the World's Critical Infrastructure

    OPSWAT, a global leader in IT, OT, and ICS critical infrastructure cybersecurity, delivers an end-to-end platform that gives public and private sector organizations and enterprises the critical advantage they need to protect their complex networks, secure their devices, and ensure compliance. Trusted by more than 1,700 organizations, governments, and institutions worldwide - including many of the world's largest governments, utilities, financial institutions, and defense contractors - OPSWAT protects the systems that keep society running.

    The Product: MetaDefender Managed File Transfer

    MetaDefender Managed File Transfer is OPSWAT's secure managed file transfer solution, trusted by governments and critical infrastructure operators to move sensitive files safely across enterprise networks and partner boundaries. It embeds OPSWAT's threat prevention technology - multiscanning, Deep CDR Technology, and DLP - directly into every file flow.

    This role owns the engineering for the product across its full range of deployment form factors - air-gapped, cross-domain, internet-connected, and native-cloud environments - each with its own security, assurance, and operational demands, and all built to scale.

    About This Role

    We are looking for a Director of Engineering who leads from the front. This is a hands-on, technically-centric leadership role - not a pure people-management position - with full accountability for the engineering of MetaDefender Managed File Transfer: architecture, delivery, quality, and the teams that build it. You will lead engineering across multiple deployment form factors - from air-gapped and cross-domain environments to internet-connected and native-cloud deployments - operating with the rigor of a principal engineer and the clarity of an executive.

    You are an AI-native engineering leader. You have personally orchestrated fleets of AI agents to architect, build, test, and ship production systems, and you have launched and released real products through a full AI-powered software development lifecycle (SDLC) - from specification and code generation to automated testing, review, and deployment. Product Management defines what to ship; you define how to build it. You own the end-to-end delivery of the roadmap Product Management sets, hold the delivery bar, and build a high-performance culture that the rest of OPSWAT's engineering portfolio will look to as a model for AI-native development. You report to the VP, Products, and lead a distributed team across Romania, Vietnam, and Hungary, while the role itself can be based anywhere, with a preference for the UK, USA, or near an OPSWAT-operated location.

    What You Will Be Doing

    • Lead as an AI-first effort: make AI agents a first-class part of how the team works - orchestrating agents to create specs, generate code and tests, verify results, and run reviews - while ensuring humans own and validate every line that ships. Treat automation and intelligence as the default, not the exception.
    • Stay hands-on: remain directly in the codebase - setting architecture patterns, writing and reviewing critical code, prototyping, and unblocking hard technical problems. You lead by doing, not only by delegating.
    • Own end-to-end delivery of the roadmap: take full ownership of delivering the product roadmap set by Product Management - turning the "what to ship" into the "how to build," and owning execution sequencing, technical risk, quality, security, and release across every deployment form factor.
    • Set technical direction (the "how"): drive the architecture and technology choices that underpin a product serving high-assurance environments at scale. Hold a strong engineering point of view and be willing to defend it.
    • Build and lead a high-performance team: recruit, develop, and retain top engineers and their leads across Romania, Vietnam, and Hungary; create clear career paths and norms for code quality and review; and build a culture where strong engineers want to stay and grow.
    • Drive performance-based management: set clear, measurable expectations and run a rigorous, fair performance culture - recognizing and accelerating top performers, raising the bar continuously, and addressing underperformance decisively by coaching where there is a path and upgrading or exiting the role where there is not.
    • Hold a security-first quality bar: champion code review with a security lens for both human-written and AI-generated code, catching injection risks, insecure defaults, missing validation, and privilege-escalation vectors in file-handling and authentication paths before they ship.
    • Raise engineering velocity: continuously improve how the team works - CI/CD pipelines, AI-assisted development workflows, incident response, and operational maturity - so the team ships faster and more reliably over time.
    • Codify AI-native practices for the portfolio: establish the playbooks, AI context files, coding harnesses, test frameworks, and review norms developed on this product so other OPSWAT product teams can adopt them.
    • Partner cross-functionally: work shoulder-to-shoulder with the VP, Products, plus Product Management, Design, and security leaders - turning the product roadmap (the what) into engineering execution (the how), committing to scope and timelines, and pushing back clearly when trade-offs require it.

    What We Need From You

    • Full agentic development experience (required): you have personally run a full agentic, AI-powered SDLC end to end - and have done so in B2B and high-security enterprise environments where compliance, data sensitivity, and assurance requirements are non-negotiable. You can show real work (PRs, commit history, shipped products, or a portfolio) where agentic workflows drove delivery - not slideware about AI.
    • A product launched via a full AI-powered SDLC: demonstrable experience taking a product from spec to release using an end-to-end AI-assisted lifecycle (spec generation, code/test generation, automated verification, AI-assisted review, and CI/CD), with you accountable for the outcome.
    • Proven engineering leadership: 8+ years of software engineering experience and 3+ years leading engineering teams (including managing managers/leads) through complex product delivery at scale. You can point to the decisions you made and why.
    • Performance-based leadership: a track record of building high-performing teams through rigorous, fair performance management - promoting excellence, making timely talent decisions, and reducing or replacing low performers when needed.
    • Deep technical excellence: strong, current software engineering fundamentals - solid command of design patterns, SOLID principles, and modern architecture. You can evaluate AI-assisted code with the same rigor as human-authored code. AI tools amplify strong fundamentals; they do not replace them.
    • Scalable systems experience: a proven history building scalable, distributed solutions - including relational/document databases, cloud-native services, and modern CI/CD systems.
    • Quality and test discipline: a high bar for tested, maintainable code; you use AI to accelerate test scaffolding, then validate that coverage is real and meaningful.
    • Distributed-team leadership: demonstrated ability to lead and align engineers across countries and time zones, building trust, clarity, and accountability in a remote/hybrid, multi-country setup.
    • Talent magnet and clear communicator: you identify strong engineers, make a compelling case for why they should join, and create an environment where they do their best work - and you communicate technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders without oversimplifying.
    • Security-conscious by default: operating in critical infrastructure markets means security is never an afterthought; you hold the team to a security-first bar on design, code review, and incident response.

    It Would Be Nice If You Had

    • Domain familiarity: experience with managed file transfer, secure content delivery, data security, or critical infrastructure markets - you understand the trade-offs customers in this space make.
    • .NET / C# ecosystem: hands-on or managerial experience with .NET Core / C# - enough to evaluate architectural decisions, review PRs credibly, and hire well for the stack.
    • Cloud-native and containers: experience leading the design or operation of cloud-native SaaS platforms - Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS/Azure/GCP - including using AI agents to script infrastructure and deployment automation.
    • AI context-file authoring: experience writing AI context files (e.g., CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, or equivalent) that encode architecture decisions and forbidden patterns for consistent, safe AI output across a team.
    • AI in CI/CD pipelines: familiarity running AI agents inside pipelines - auto-fixing li
