Job description

Senior Product Manager

Picogrid builds hardware and software infrastructure to connect and control the systems that power critical industries. Our platform unifies sensors, platforms, and operators to power mission planning, autonomous system control, and real-time decision-making.

We partner directly with operators, technology companies, and federal agencies to deliver rapidly deployable, mission-critical capabilities where they're needed most, often on short timelines and in challenging conditions. Our technology is trusted in active operations, not just test environments, and we move quickly to close real-world capability gaps for those on the front lines.

Joining Picogrid means working on high-impact problems at the intersection of autonomy, national security, and cutting-edge technology. You'll be part of a small, elite team that builds and ships systems used by the leading organizations around the world. We operate with urgency, ownership, and a deep respect for the mission.

Role Overview

Picogrid is seeking a senior product manager to own key product initiatives across our portfolio of hardware-integrated software systems. You'll play a central role in shaping how our products evolve, translating customer needs into actionable plans, and working closely with engineering, design, and operations to deliver solutions that matter.

This is a hands-on role focused on driving product strategy and execution. You'll work directly with military users, government partners, and internal teams to shape products that are intuitive, fast, and reliable under pressure. Success requires deep user empathy, technical fluency, and the ability to balance immediate operational needs with long-term platform growth.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with leadership to define and execute the product roadmap in alignment with company goals and customer needs.
  • Prioritize features and initiatives, weighing user impact, technical feasibility, and resource constraints.
  • Act as the voice of the user : conduct discovery with operators and program managers to deeply understand workflows and operational challenges.
  • Translate complex, real-world requirements into clear product specifications and user stories.
  • Collaborate with engineering and design through the full product lifecyclefrom concept and prototyping to launch and iteration.
  • Coordinate with business development and field operations to ensure seamless deployments and customer success.
  • Track product performance through usage data and feedback loops, continuously improving product quality and usability.
  • Stay informed about emerging defense, autonomy, and AI technologies to keep Picogrid's platform ahead of the curve.

Required Qualifications

  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance.
  • 5+ years of product management experience, with at least 2 years managing complex, cross-functional hardware / software products.
  • Demonstrated success launching and scaling field-deployed or mission-critical products.
  • Strong track record of engaging directly with end-users and translating their needs into actionable product requirements.
  • Excellent communication skills, able to clearly articulate technical concepts to diverse audiences.
  • Experience working in fast-paced, resource-constrained startup environments.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Active U.S. Top Secret security clearance.
  • Background in systems engineering, computer science, or a related technical field.
  • Familiarity with DoD acquisition programs, SOCOM-style deployments, or similar high-stakes operational contexts.
  • Experience working on products for defense, aerospace, or dual-use technology markets.
  • Prior exposure to integrating emerging AI and autonomy technologies into real-world workflows.
  • Other Qualifications

  • Flexibility to work extended hours or weekends during critical deployments supporting active missions.
  • Benefits

  • Meaningful stock options with a high potential upside as an early-stage company.
  • 401(k) with employer matching.
  • Full health coverage.
  • Relocation assistance provided.
  • Unlimited PTO (two-week minimum) and 11 paid holidays per year.
  • Paid parental leave for both parents.
  • Lunch provided when working in-office and fully stocked kitchenette.
  • Complimentary EV charging when working in office.
  • Export Control Requirements

    To conform to U.S. Government export regulations, applicant must be a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful, permanent resident (aka green card holder), (iii) Refugee under 8 U.S.C. 1157, or (iv) Asylee under 8 U.S.C. 1158, or be eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
