Product Analyst

About us

APIs are the foundation of today’s app-driven world. From banking, travel, and retail to IoT, autonomous vehicles, and smart cities – every application depends on APIs. Without secure APIs, rapid innovation would not be possible. Salt Security is the only patented solution that uses big data and AI to identify and prevent API attacks.

At Salt, we’re passionate about what we do. We work as a team, embracing new ideas and valuing impact. We also enjoy the benefits of a fast-moving startup environment.

About the position

We are looking for our first Product Analyst to join the Applications group (Inventory, Posture, Runtime Detection). This is a unique opportunity to establish product analytics at Salt, bring best practices, and directly influence how our customers experience and adopt our product.

You will play a pivotal role in driving one of the core application domains and capabilities, which are vital components enabling our entire API security value chain - from API discovery to API vulnerabilities and detection. You will get to demonstrate your deep understanding within the application security domain (with a focus on API security architecture and ecosystem), excellent relationship-building skills with partners and internal stakeholders, and your ability to translate complex technical situations into smart product solutions.

If you have strong leadership skills, a proactive problem-solving approach, an entrepreneurial mindset, attention to detail, and a steep learning curve - we are looking for you.

What will you do?

• Lead analytics for the Applications group, focusing on user behavior, product usage, and adoption patterns.
• Generate insights on how customers engage with the product – which features they use, where they drop off, and why.
• Provide actionable recommendations to improve user experience and increase engagement.
• Partner with Product Managers and UX to translate data into product initiatives and user stories.
• Establish product analytics best practices and processes at Salt.
• Stay up to date with analytics trends, tools, and industry practices.

Requirements:

• Proven experience (at least one successful role) as a Product Analyst in a mid-size or large company, with examples of projects that drove product value.
• Technical background in software development- this means you can write scripts, query data (SQL), and work with LLM/prompt engineering when relevant.
• Hands-on experience with web analytics tools (we use Mixpanel; experience with Pendo or similar tools is also relevant).
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills – able to turn complex data into actionable insights.
• Proactive and self-driven, comfortable managing multiple analytics tasks and bringing new ideas to the table.
• Excellent communication skills – able to explain insights clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• BSc/MSc in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent – advantage.
