Our platform transforms millions of real-time signals into intelligent action, bridging the gap between deep visibility and automated remediation. We turn "IT headaches" and employee frustration into self-healing operations, allowing organizations to move beyond reactive troubleshooting toward a future where technology works seamlessly in the background. We’re here to ensure the workday runs without disruptions. No tool sprawl, no wasted time, and no friction. Just technology that works for people, not against them, so they can stay focused on what they do best. One platform. One powerful shift in how work flows. ## The Role ControlUp for VDI is where our reputation was built - and it remains a core pillar of ControlUp ONE.

We're looking for a Technical Product Manager to own the next chapter of that product: keeping our real-time depth unmatched while bringing agentic AI, automation, and proactive remediation into the virtual desktop world.
