About the role

We are looking for a results-driven Senior Product Manager to lead the development and execution of an innovative Command, Control and Management System that enables operators to plan, execute, monitor and learn from operations of autonomous or human-driven assets, within the operational and mission context of defense and dual-use customers. This role requires a product leader with a deep understanding of complex, user-facing systems and a passion for crafting tools that improve decision-making and operational efficiency at scale.

You will collaborate closely with engineers, designers, customers, and domain experts to deliver mission-critical software that drives intelligent fleet operations in dynamic environments.

Key Responsibilities

• Drive the execution of the strategic product roadmap for our Command, Control and Management System, prioritizing initiatives that deliver the greatest value and business impact.
• Act as the voice of the user, continuously championing user needs, behaviors, and pain points to drive product decisions that enhance value.
• Collaborate with and align cross-functional teams (design, operations, engineering, BD and sales) to build user-centered tools that support a range of operational roles
• Build strong relationships with clients, users, and internal stakeholders to ensure the product continuously adapts to real-world needs.
• Own the end-to-end product lifecycle, from initial discovery through requirement gathering, design, development, deployment, and learning, for ongoing iterations.
• Stay informed on fleet tech trends, industry standards, and competitor offerings to guide strategy and maintain product differentiation.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of product management experience, ideally working on user-facing software with complex workflows, operational dashboards, or control interfaces
• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
• Strong understanding of system-level thinking and how to balance technical complexity with user-centered design.
• Proven track record of leading software products from concept through delivery in mission-critical, enterprise and deep-tech contexts

Nice to have:

• Experience with software tools that support real-time operations, situational awareness or vehicle/asset coordination.
• Background in defense, logistics, autonomous systems, or related fields.
• Demonstrated success in identifying and achieving product–market fit in high-complexity or emerging technology domains.
