Product Manager

We’re looking for a technically-minded Product Manager to join our growing team.

Our customers operate large satellite constellations – each one unique – and we provide the unified platform to automate and accelerate their mission operations. The aim of a product manager at Quindar is the right products and features for our customers at the right time – not too early or too late.

• Execution: Collaborate with engineering and design teams to deliver innovative features on time
• User Understanding: Conduct user research, shadow customers, analyze data, and synthesize information from customer-facing teams to develop deep user empathy and inform product decisions.
• Metrics: Monitor product performance and use metrics to guide iterations on and improvements to your product areas.
• Leadership: Serve as the go-to expert on the product, the market, the competition, and the customers.
• Collaboration: Communicate effectively and drive cross-functional alignment with stakeholders at all levels, from engineering teams to executive leadership.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of product management experience, preferably in aerospace or related industries focused on SaaS products
• Proven ability to manage product roadmaps and deliver features end-to-end
• Strong technical background with an understanding of software development or agile methodologies (e.g. Scrum, Kanban, CI/CD)
• Excellent written and verbal communication and organizational skills
• Bachelor’s degree in business, engineering, Computer Science, or related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• Ability to work into a fast-paced, constantly evolving environment.
