Product Marketing Manager, AI Governance (EMEA) **Location:** EMEA ### About the Role: Kong is building the connectivity layer for the AI era — securing, governing, and monetizing every LLM, MCP, agent, and API request in production. As the Product Marketing Manager for our AI portfolio, you'll be the commercial engine behind the fastest-moving part of our business.
