Staff Technical Product Manager

Join Scale, a leading AI company, as a Staff Technical Product Manager in our Global Defense business. In this role, you will own critical product areas, shape and develop our global defense products, and serve as the primary technical expert for our global customers. You will be hands-on, writing specs, prototyping solutions, and making product decisions grounded in technical understanding. You will also design and ship AI-powered products and tooling for defense and national security workflows, and navigate the unique constraints of defense product development.

• Posséder la feuille de route du produit et l'exécution pour un ou plusieurs domaines de produits au sein de la défense mondiale, en conduisant ce qui est construit et comment cela est expédié.
• Écrire des spécifications, prototyper des solutions, approfondir l'architecture technique avec les ingénieurs et prendre des décisions sur le produit en fonction d'une compréhension technique réelle.
• Concevoir et expédier des produits et des outils alimentés par l'IA pour les flux de travail de la défense et de la sécurité nationale, en travaillant côte à côte avec les équipes d'ingénierie et d'apprentissage automatique.
• The ideal candidate brings together a strong engineering or ML background, entrepreneurial drive, the eagerness to be a hands-on builder, and the ability to get in front of senior technical and government stakeholders to drive mission-critical outcomes
• Builder mentality: you’re energized by going from zero to one, not by managing from a distance
• Bias for action and comfort wearing multiple hats in fast-moving environments
• Technical fluency: software engineering or ML background (master’s degree in computer science or equivalent experience). Experience training or evaluating models is a plus
• 8+ years of experience in software engineering, ML engineering, or a deeply technical product role where you were hands-on with what shipped
• Deep intellectual curiosity about AI systems — you read papers, dig into technical details, and have strong opinions about how things should be built
• Willingness to travel to allied partner nations as needed
• Enough customer instinct to know what matters, but your default mode is building, not selling
