🛩️ Senior Technical Product Manager
📍 Los Angeles County, CA
💼 Full-time | On-site | Relocation assistance provided
Why Join Us
My client is a high-growth aerospace company building next-gen autonomous aerial systems for mission critical applications! The team has been quickly scaling over the past year and is now looking to bring on a Senior Product Manager to own their core product line from concept through deployment and iteration.
This is not a traditional GTM-heavy product role. The focus here is on owning the product lifecycle, working directly with engineering, and translating real-world customer feedback into actionable product direction.
What You'll Do
- Own the product roadmap and lifecycle for an integrated UAS platform.
- Work closely with engineering teams to drive product definition, design iterations, and delivery.
- Key interface across BD, customers, and internal teams, directly engaging with end users to capture mission needs and translate them into clear, actionable requirements for engineering.
- Drive product execution across testing, field deployment, and sustainment, ensuring continuous iteration based on real-world performance and customer feedback.
- Operate at the intersection of product and program execution in a fast-moving environment.
Ideal Background
- 7-10+ years developing and delivering UAS, autonomous systems, or other integrated hardware/software aerospace platforms.
- Experience owning the full product lifecycle end-to-end.
- Strong technical fluency - able to communicate effectively with engineers and understand system-level tradeoffs.
- Direct experience working with U.S. government or defense stakeholders, capturing mission requirements and translating them into actionable product and engineering direction.
- Comfortable operating in environments where product, program, and customer needs are tightly coupled.
Culture Fit
- Execution-focused with a bias toward delivering and iterating quickly.
- Low ego, high ownership across cross-functional teams.
- Strong communicator across engineering, BD, and customers.
- Comfortable operating in ambiguity and driving clear direction.
