We're hiring a Senior Product Manager to lead product strategy and execution for mission-critical software platforms. You'll work closely with customers, engineers, and designers to transform complex technical capabilities into products that solve real user problems in high-stakes environments.

This product operates at the intersection of high-fidelity simulation, geospatial data, AI, and real-time decision-making—environments where product decisions have meaningful operational impact.

We're looking for a Senior Product Manager who thrives in technically complex domains and can quickly become fluent in new subject matter. You'll partner directly with users, domain experts, engineers, and designers to deeply understand workflows, uncover unmet needs, and define products that create measurable customer value.

Success in this role requires balancing customer needs, technical constraints, and business priorities. You'll make thoughtful product tradeoffs, prioritize ruthlessly, and help the team focus on building the right things—not just building things right.

This is a highly collaborative role where Product, Design, and Engineering operate as peers throughout discovery, planning, and execution.

• Own product strategy and execution for one or more mission-critical software products, from discovery through delivery and iteration.
• Develop deep empathy for users by conducting customer interviews, observing workflows, and partnering closely with domain experts to understand complex operational challenges.
• Quickly ramp into unfamiliar technical domains and synthesize complex concepts into clear product direction.
• Define product vision, strategy, roadmaps, and success metrics aligned with customer outcomes and company objectives.
• Translate user needs, technical capabilities, and business priorities into clear product requirements and well-defined initiatives.
• Partner closely with Design to lead user-centered discovery, validate concepts, and ensure solutions solve meaningful customer problems before development begins.
• Work side-by-side with Engineering to understand technical tradeoffs, shape implementation approaches, and make informed prioritization decisions throughout development.
• Make thoughtful tradeoffs between customer value, technical complexity, speed, and long-term platform investments.
• Drive cross-functional alignment across Engineering, Design, Leadership, and customers to ensure shared understanding and successful execution.
• Use qualitative and quantitative data to evaluate product performance and continuously improve user outcomes.
• Clearly communicate product decisions, priorities, and rationale across technical and non-technical audiences.

• Experi…
