Product Manager - Mission Agents

What you'll do

• Synthesize signal into direction. Take in messy, conflicting inputs and determine what actually matters.
• Define how agents behave. Shape primitives like objectives, constraints, trust tiers, and evaluation criteria.
• Improve output quality. Drive systematic improvements across models, memory, and workflows.
• Own product direction end-to-end. Turn ambiguous problems into concrete bets and drive them through delivery.
• Work directly with users. Build deep intuition for real-world workflows and needs.
• Translate mission signal into product direction. Take in real-world user signal and translate it into clear product direction, including pushing back when needed.
• Partner with engineering. Shape solutions that are both impactful and technically sound.
• Drive alignment in ambiguous situations. Bring clarity across stakeholders when perspectives conflict.

What you should have

• Strong product judgment. You consistently identify the right problems and make sound prioritization decisions.
• Ability to separate signal from noise. You form independent, defensible opinions from incomplete and conflicting inputs.
• Experience with complex systems or platforms. You've worked on products where behavior emerges from underlying primitives.
• Experience operating under real constraints. You've shipped products where security, infrastructure, or deployment realities shaped decisions.
• High ownership and bias toward action. You take responsibility for outcomes and push work through to completion.
• Technical fluency. You can engage with engineers and understand system constraints and tradeoffs.
• Clear, direct communication. You can articulate decisions, tradeoffs, and reasoning in a way others can act on.

Nice to have

• Experience working with operational or mission-driven users
• Experience with LLM-based systems
• Experience with product analytics (e.g., SQL)
• Experience rapidly prototyping ideas (Figma, AI coding tools, etc.)
• Exposure to constrained or high-security environments
• Active Security clearance (or ability to obtain one) and willingness to travel onsite
