Forward Deployed Product Manager

Location: U.S. (Remote, but must be based in the United States)

Travel: Depending on the assigned engagement, substantial travel to state government partner sites may be expected

Clearance: Must be eligible and able to pass a government background check

We are seeking a Forward Deployed Product Manager to sit alongside our government customers during discovery, architecture, and design, sometimes while engineering is building, and help them work out what they actually need and why.

You will support specific deployments, from statewide identity programs to large-scale education and workforce credentialing initiatives. Each must be localized to its own ecosystem: stakeholders, user demographics, regulations, and program objectives. Even as we sell a product to a customer, we treat the overall program as a product with its own governance, roadmap, and objectives. Much of this work is customer-driven today and requires hands-on engagement with individual implementations, even as we work to consolidate what we learn into reusable Spruce products. Holding both at once is the job.
