About Compyl

Compyl is redefining how modern security teams manage governance, risk, and compliance. We help organizations operationalize GRC, connecting controls, evidence, risk, and outcomes in a way that’s defensible, scalable, and built for how security teams actually work.

We’re a Series A, enterprise-focused SaaS company with a growing customer base, deep partnerships in the cybersecurity ecosystem, and a product that sits at the intersection of security, compliance, and operations. As we scale, product leadership is a critical lever for our next phase of growth.

The Role

We’re hiring a Head of Product to own Compyl’s product vision, strategy, and execution end-to-end. This role sits at the center of the company, partnering closely with Engineering, Customer Experience, Sales, and Leadership to ensure we’re building the right things, at the right time, for the right customers.

This is a hands-on leadership role. You’ll set direction, but you’ll also stay close to customers, roadmap tradeoffs, delivery timelines, and outcomes. Success in this role means translating real customer pain into clear priorities, shipping high-quality product consistently, and raising the bar for how product decisions are made across the company.

What You’ll Do

Own Product Strategy & Vision

• Define and evolve Compyl’s long-term product vision and roadmap, aligned to company strategy, customer needs, and market opportunity.
• Translate high-level strategy into clear, prioritized initiatives with measurable outcomes.
• Balance near-term execution with long-term platform thinking.

Lead Product Execution

• Own roadmap planning, prioritization, and delivery in close partnership with Engineering.
• Ensure product initiatives are scoped clearly, sequenced effectively, and delivered with quality.
• Establish strong product discovery and validation practices before committing engineering resources.

Be the Voice of the Customer

• Stay deeply connected to customers, prospects, and the field, especially enterprise security and GRC leaders.
• Partner with Customer Experience to incorporate feedback from onboarding, adoption, renewals, and expansion into product decisions.
• Ensure product decisions are grounded in real-world workflows, not just feature requests.

Partner Cross-Functionally

• Work closely with Sales and Marketing to support positioning, packaging, pricing, and go-to-market readiness.
• Partner with Customer Experience to improve adoption, usability, and long-term value realization.
• Collaborate with Engineering leadership on technical tradeoffs, platform investments, and delivery health.

Build & Scale the Product Organization

• Lead and develop Product Managers and Product Designers; define clear roles, expectations, and career paths.
• Establish product rituals, operating cadence, and decision-making frameworks that scale with the company.
• Raise the bar for product thinking, communication, and accountability across the org.

What We’re Looking For

Required Experience

• 10+ years of product management experience, including senior leadership roles building enterprise SaaS platforms.
• Demonstrated experience driving product strategy in risk, compliance, security, governance, or adjacent regulated domains.
• Proven track record translating regulatory frameworks and customer obligations into scalable, policy-driven product capabilities.
• Experience owning and evolving a complex, multi-tenant platform with a strong point of view on modularity, extensibility, and long-term architecture.
• Highly analytical and outcome-driven; comfortable using qualitative customer insight and quantitative data to drive prioritization and roadmap decisions.
• Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional alignment across Engineering, Customer Experience, Sales, and executive leadership in a high-growth environment.
• Experience scaling product organizations and operating models in a Series A–C SaaS company.
