Software Product Manager

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology.

We are looking for a Software Product Manager to own what ships to the operator. EW Mission Applications builds the software between the device and the operator , operator applications, Lattice integrations, shared visualization components, and the internal tooling that the rest of the business line runs on.

Responsibilities

• Own the EW Mission Applications product roadmap: what is committed, what is queued, what we declined and why , published and current enough that program management and engineering leads both plan against it
• Run a single intake path for product requirements from programs, customers, partners, and internal teams, and give every request a scoped, sized answer: accept, defer, or decline, with a reason
• Define operator capabilities before design and engineering start , the problem, the workflow, and the acceptance criteria that QA builds integration coverage against
• Deconflict competing program demands on shared engineering teams using a written, defensible prioritization framework
• Represent EW Mission Applications in the recurring device API review: bring the integration needs, justify the priority, agree the build order with embedded engineering, and track requests through to delivery
• Partner with UI design on operator workflows and with QA on test coverage, owning the requirement behind both
• Turn recurring field issues from our mission software engineering team into roadmap items and test coverage on a standing cadence
• Track delivery commitments against actuals and publish the results, so our estimates improve and our release commitments earn credibility
• Brief delivery status, roadmap changes, and risk to stakeholders at every level , engineers, program leadership, and customers , without flattening technical nuance into a status color
• Travel up to 25% to support integration events, deployments, field visits, and customer engagements

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years in software product management, technical product ownership, or a closely related role
• Direct ownership of a product roadmap, including the authority and the track record to decline work
• Demonstrated ability to write requirements and acceptance criteria that engineering and test executed against
• Strong written and verbal communication skills , you'll be writing the roadmap, running prioritization calls, and briefing leadership
• Experience owning a software product surface that depended on hardware or firmware built by a team you did not control
• Experience deconflicting priorities across concurrent customers or programs competing for the same engineering capacity
• Ability to read and navigate codebases and API surfaces: you don't need to write production code, but you need to understand what is changing and what it costs
• Comfortable operating with incomplete information and requirements that move
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret/SCI security clearance
• Willingness to travel up to 25%

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with operator-facing or mission-critical software where the end user is not the buyer
• Multi-channel product experience: one capability delivered through several front ends, client applications, or partner platforms
• Familiarity with the DoD software ecosystem , CDRL cycles, ATO processes, and program-of-record cadence
• Prior experience in defense technology, electronic warfare, command and control, ISR, or RF systems
• Experience with geospatial or real-time visualization software
• Experience defining products against a hardware roadmap and an SDK or device API boundary
• Experience with edge deployments where systems operate disconnected or in degraded network environments
• Experience scaling product processes during a rapid production ramp
