VP of Product Strategy & Chief of Staff to the CPO

Location - Hybrid, Sunnyvale, California

The Opportunity

DigiCert's product organization is at an inflection point. As the market for intelligent trust expands — driven by AI, quantum readiness, and increasingly complex infrastructure — the need for a tightly run, commercially sharp product operation has never been greater. This role sits at the center of that ambition. Reporting directly to the Chief Product Officer, the VP of Product Strategy serves as Chief of Staff to the CPO — a dual-mandate leader who combines strategic firepower with operational discipline.

What You Will Own

This role is organized around five core mandates:

1. Monetization Strategy Own DigiCert's end-to-end monetization agenda. This means more than pricing — it means defining how the company captures value from its products across segments, channels, and geographies. Design and steward DigiCert's pricing and packaging architecture across the portfolio, balancing competitive positioning, customer value, and margin expansion.
2. Product Portfolio Management — Launch to Sunset Own the full commercial lifecycle of DigiCert's product portfolio, from the moment a new product enters the pipeline to the moment a legacy product exits the market.
3. Product Intelligence & Insights Be the analytical engine of the product organization. Turn data into the shared language that product teams, executives, and cross-functional partners use to make decisions.
4. Product GTM Acceleration Serve as the product organization's primary interface with Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success — ensuring that great products reach the market with the positioning, readiness, and field support they need to win.
5. Office of the CPO Act as the CPO's strategic partner and operational right hand — ensuring the product organization operates with clarity, alignment, and momentum.

Who You Are

You are a rare combination of strategic thinker and operational executor who thrives in proximity to senior leadership. You have built and run complex programs before, and you know how to get things done in a matrixed organization without losing momentum or relationships.

What You Bring

12+ years across business strategy, product operations, or commercial leadership — with meaningful time spent close to a C-suite executive or in a Chief of Staff capacity.

Compensation & Benefits
