Senior Product Manager at Swarmer

WHAT WE DO (AND WHY IT MATTERS): Swarmer develops software that makes drones autonomous and allows them to operate together, in large teams, without pilots required. Our technology has been battle-tested across 100,000+ combat missions in Ukraine — the world's most intense proving ground for drone warfare. We just closed a $15M Series A (the largest investment in Ukrainian defense tech since the war began) and we're scaling operations to serve NATO-aligned nations. This isn't theoretical. This is software that's being used right now to save lives and defend democracy. WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR: We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to shape and deliver cutting-edge autonomous defense products that meet real-world operational needs. This role blends strategic product leadership, deep military domain expertise, and hands-on execution in high-stakes environments. YOU’LL BE A GOOD FIT IF YOU HAVE: - 3–5+ years of experience in product management, ideally with complex technical, AI, hardware, or data-driven products. - Strong product thinking: ability to turn ambiguity into clear, impactful product decisions. - Analytical skills: structured approach to translating complex operational needs into product strategy. - Excellent communication: ability to bridge technical teams and military end-users effectively. - Ownership mindset: high accountability and sound judgment in fast-paced, dynamic environments. Would be an advantage: - Military or defense domain fluency: prior service, direct work with military units, or strong collaboration with government/defense stakeholders. - Technical acumen: familiarity with UAVs, autonomous systems, AI solutions, and command & control systems. WHAT YOU’LL DO: - Customer discovery: deeply research military users, their workflows, and real-world mission scenarios. - Product development: translate operational needs into product specifications, roadmaps, and backlog priorities. - Field validation: test and refine products in real-world environments, incorporating feedback from operators. - Product execution: manage and prioritize backlog, resolve dependencies, and ensure smooth delivery. - Cross-functional collaboration: work closely with engineering, sales, support, data science, operations, and field teams. - Stakeholder management: build and maintain strong relationships with military and government partners. - Strategic influence: shape product direction through research, insights, and operational feedback. - Go-to-market & adoption: define deployment and rollout strategies, support onboarding and training, and ensure adoption across military units. - Metrics & outcomes: define success criteria and measure product and system performance. WHAT YOU’LL GET: - The opportunity to work on products that directly impact modern warfare. - A fast-paced environment with minimal bureaucracy and no “process for the sake of process”. - Direct influence on product decisions and visible impact of your work. - Career and professional growth opportunities. - Benefits of the defense sector (e.g., reservation, etc.). - Competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package (insurance, paid sick leave, 20 paid days off per year). - Flexible remote work options where possible.
