About the Role

NODA AI is seeking a Senior Product Manager to own products and workflows that translate mission intent into executable plans for autonomous systems. This is a technical, customer-facing role at the intersection of mission planning, command and control, autonomy, and operations. The ideal candidate understands mission planning software, command-and-control systems, and operational workflows, ideally through direct experience with systems like JMPS, FalconView, PFPS, or comparable DoD mission planning or C2 products.

Responsibilities

Facilitate product strategy, roadmap, and requirements for NODA AI's mission planning software.
Act as the voice of the operator, working directly with warfighters, mission planners, and Government stakeholders.
Define and evolve workflows for mission creation, course-of-action development, planning, tasking, coordination, visualization, feasibility validation, execution, monitoring, and dynamic re-planning.
Translate mission objectives, operator workflows, technical constraints, and customer requirements into clear product requirements, workflows, user stories, and development priorities.
Drive the transition from programs to scalable product capabilities, identifying patterns and defining abstractions, configurations, workflows, and interfaces.
Partner closely with Engineering and Design through the full product lifecycle.
Drive product decisions involving complex interactions between planning software, autonomy, command and control, communications, networking, sensors, payloads, platforms, and Ground Control Stations.
Evaluate integration and interoperability requirements with existing Government systems, mission planning tools, Ground Control Stations, data formats, interfaces, and operational workflows.
Participate directly in field exercises, demonstrations, integration events, testing, and customer deployments.
Define and measure product success through planning speed, operator workload, feasibility validation, risk and constraint identification, mission-plan quality, successful execution, user adoption, operator feedback, and mission outcomes.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
5+ years of product management or technical product management experience, including ownership of complex, mission-critical software or integrated hardware/software products.
Minimum 2 years of experience in a dedicated Product Manager role.
U.S. Citizenship required due to ITAR regulations & the ability to obtain and maintain a Department of Defense (DoD) security clearance.
Demonstrated success delivering and scaling field-deployed, mission-critical, or operationally complex software products.
Track record of shipping products with end-to-end ownership from user research and product strategy through design, development, field deployment, adoption, and iteration.
Direct knowledge of military mission planning and execution workflows, gained through product, engineering, program, or operational experience.
Hands-on familiarity with one or more mission planning environments such as JMPS, FalconView, PFPS, Ground Control Station software, or comparable DoD planning and execution tools.
Strong understanding of the relationship between mission planning, command and control, platform tasking, autonomous behaviors, and mission execution.
Exceptional product discovery and research instincts, with demonstrated ability to learn complex domains through direct user engagement, workflow observation, technical investigation, doctrine, and operational context.
Strong technical fluency and systems-level thinking.
Demonstrated ability to translate complex operational and customer requirements into clear product requirements and actionable priorities for engineering teams.
Strong product judgment, including the ability to distinguish between customer requests, underlying user problems, program-specific requirements, and scalable product capabilities.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Willingness and ability to travel to customer sites, test events, demonstrations, exercises, and field deployments as required.

Skills

Ability to make effective prioritization decisions when balancing user needs, technical feasibility, resource constraints, customer commitments, program requirements, and long-term product architecture.
Operator obsessed: Understand how users actually plan and execute missions.
Strong product judgment: Separate customer requests from underlying user problems and determine the right solution.
Product-minded, not program-driven: Build scalable capabilities rather than accumulating one-off solutions.
Technically credible: Understand system constraints, architecture, integrations, dependencies, and technical tradeoffs.
Mission-oriented: Evaluate product decisions based on operator capability and mission success.
Strategic and execution-focused: Maintain a long-term product vision while making practical decisions.
Decisive: Make difficult prioritization decisions with imperfect information and communicate reasoning.
Hands-on: Willing to sit with users, test workflows, participate in field events, and troubleshoot.
High ownership: Take responsibility for product outcomes from discovery through iteration.
Clear communicator: Translate between operators, engineers, program teams, Government stakeholders, and executives.
Comfortable in ambiguity: Create structure where requirements are evolving and the right product solution is not immediately obvious.
