Senior Product Manager – NODA AI
Austin, TX (Hybrid — minimum 3 days/week on-site preferred)
15% or less
U.S. Citizen with the ability and willingness to obtain and maintain a DoD security clearance (sponsorship available)
NODA is a veteran-owned, venture-backed technology company transforming how unmanned systems collaborate in complex, mission-critical environments. We develop next-generation software that enables autonomous orchestration of heterogeneous unmanned systems across air, sea, land, and space for defence, intelligence, and commercial customers. Joining NODA means working on high-impact systems that go from prototype to fielded capability.
NODA AI is seeking a Senior Product Manager to own the products and workflows that turn mission intent into executable plans for autonomous systems. This is a highly technical, customer-facing product role at the intersection of mission planning, command and control, autonomy, and real-world operations. Our users operate in environments where software must do more than be intuitive.
It must help operators translate mission intent into executable plans, synchronize actions across systems and platforms, understand risks and constraints, and adapt as conditions change. You will bring a deep understanding of how operators plan and execute missions today and help define how those workflows evolve as autonomous and multi-domain systems become increasingly central to operations.
We are looking for someone who understands mission planning software, command-and-control systems, and operational workflows, ideally through direct experience with systems such as Joint Mission Planning System (JMPS), FalconView, Portable Flight Planning Software (PFPS), other comparable DoD mission planning or C2 products, and commercial ground control stations such as QGroundControl.
This is a hands-on, senior individual contributor role with significant product ownership. You will spend time with operators, work shoulder-to-shoulder with Engineering and Design, participate in field exercises and customer deployments, and see firsthand how the product performs in operational environments.
You will serve as a voice of the operator, translating operator feedback, doctrine, TTPs, field observations, technical constraints and customer requirements into product strategy, intuitive workflows, and engineering priorities. A critical part of this role will be helping NODA AI evolve into a scalable multi-domain product platform.
You will identify patterns across missions, customers, platforms, and integrations and determine what should become configurable, repeatable product capability, balancing immediate operational needs and customer commitments with the long-term architecture and integrity of the platform.
This role requires strong product instincts, technical fluency, operational awareness and the ability to bring structure and coordination to ambiguous, cross-functional problems. You will own meaningful product outcomes from discovery through development, field deployment, and iteration. You will help define what we build and why, make difficult prioritization decisions, and distinguish between what a customer asks for and the underlying problem the product should solve.
Success requires deep user empathy, technical fluency, strong product and design judgment, and the ability to bring clarity to complex, ambiguous problems. You will partner closely with Engineering to deliver capabilities that reduce operator workload, accelerate decision-making, and give users confidence in the plans they execute when the mission matters.
