Senior Product Manager, AI Partner

We are seeking a highly technical Senior Product Manager to own TrendAI's strategic product relationships with frontier AI providers, Hyperscalers, and key AI security ecosystem partners.

This role defines how TrendAI collaborates with, and builds competitive differentiation alongside, Anthropic, OpenAI, NVIDIA, and emerging security initiatives such as Glasswing and Daybreak - acting as the primary product interface between TrendAI and these strategic partners.

The ideal candidate combines deep technical understanding of frontier AI and cloud architectures with the commercial and relationship skills to drive joint roadmaps, co-innovation programmes, and mutual value creation - translating partner capabilities into differentiated security products and measurable business outcomes.

- Own the partner-facing product strategy and roadmap for TrendAI's AI integration and ecosystem capabilities.

- Decide which partner capabilities TrendAI should integrate, extend, commercialize, or build independently - and define the criteria on which each decision is made.

- Serve as TrendAI's primary product authority in external partner engagements with Anthropic, OpenAI, NVIDIA, and other strategic technology partners.

- Align partner strategy with TrendAI priorities across AI usage, applications, agents, identity, data, runtime security, detection, response, and governance.

- Maintain joint product roadmap alignment with frontier AI providers (Anthropic, OpenAI) and NVIDIA as strategic partners of TrendAI.

- Represent TrendAI's security requirements in partner product discussions - covering APIs, identity, telemetry, data handling, policy enforcement, risk findings, evidence, and response.

- Track and assess partner capability releases, API changes, deprecations, and roadmap commitments; translate these into TrendAI product decisions and risk escalations.

- Define integration patterns for APIs, identity, telemetry, data handling, policy enforcement, risk findings, evidence, and response.

- Develop reference architectures and design partnerships with strategic Partners.

- Ensure integrations support SaaS, sovereign, and customer-controlled deployment models.

- Translate partner technology into clear use cases, requirements, architecture, deployment models, packaging, licensing, and success metrics.

- Partner with engineering, architecture, research, UX, and security teams to deliver scalable and reusable capabilities.

- Ensure integrations use common TrendAI contracts for telemetry, policy, evidence, identity, and response rather than one-off connectors or integrations.

- Engage strategic customers, design partners, frontier-model providers, Hyperscalers, and technology alliances to validate priorities and develop pilots and reference architectures.

- Work across Product Marketing, Sales, Solution Engineering, Alliances, Legal, Compliance, Support, and Customer success to drive launches, enablement, differentiation, and adoption.

- Represent the partner product strategy clearly to executives, customers, partners, analysts, technical teams, and non-technical stakeholders.

- Define why each partnership matters, which customer problem it solves, what TrendAI adds beyond the partner capability, and how it should be sold.

- Develop joint positioning, competitive analysis, customer presentations, solution briefs, demonstrations, and co-sell plans.

- Ensure every partnership and integration creates clear value for the customer, TrendAI, and the strategic partner.

- Use customer demand, adoption, product usage, technical feasibility, partner commitments, competitive intelligence, and pipeline impact to prioritize investment.

- Measure success through active integrations, customer adoption, influenced pipeline, partner-sourced opportunities, customer risk reduction, and reusable platform capability.
