Product Manager – Government Missions

The role

You will own our government missions: the work navies, coast guards, border and law enforcement agencies and defence intelligence bodies actually do, from maritime domain awareness and interdiction to sanctions enforcement and counter-narcotics. Those customers have a maritime picture, risk models and investigation tools today, and where we are going is a platform where a mission is configured rather than custom-built, so that a coast guard's triage workflow and an intelligence agency's tasking workflow are one product with different mission templates.

The role

What you need

Everything below is required. The last two are specific to this role, and they do not substitute for the ones above them.

2–10+ years in product. We care about trajectory more than years — we've hired PMs early in their careers and PMs with more than a decade behind them, and we set title and comp to the person, not the req.
You have built for governments before. You have shipped product to defence, navy, coast guard, border or law enforcement customers, and you know how that work differs from commercial: the evaluation that is really a procurement, the accreditation, the deployment you cannot reach remotely, the integration into a system of record you do not control, and the user who did not choose their own tools. You can tell a requirement that came from an operator from one that came from a tender, and you handle each differently.
Maritime or intelligence depth. You come from maritime, naval or intelligence work, whether in uniform, inside an agency, or building for them. You already know what a maritime picture is for, so you will not spend your first six months learning why a gap in a vessel's transmission matters or what an analyst does with one.
Fast on complex things. You pick up an unfamiliar, technical, high-stakes domain quickly and get to real understanding, not vocabulary. This is the single thing we screen hardest for.
A clarifier. You make complicated things simple — in a decision, a requirement, a slide, a Slack message. You naturally produce focused written outputs that tell a story, rather than pages-long docs of AI slop.
High agency. You see something broken and fix it without being asked. You start things. You don't wait for permission, cover, or a perfectly defined scope. Founders and 0-to-1 builders tend to do well here.
Someone people are calm handing work to. Organized, dependable, follows through, doesn't drop things. Nobody needs to check your work or chase you for it.
Technical. Whether or not you've been an engineer. You're comfortable with system design, data, APIs and models, and you can hold your own in an engineering conversation.
Great taste, and you own the quality. Real instincts about what makes a product feel good to use. You obsess over details, from the UX to the logic, with customer empathy.
AI-native. You use AI daily and well, you follow where it's going, and you have opinions about it.
A strong presenter and writer, in English, to any audience — engineers, executives, customers, governments.
