About Zaden Technologies, Inc. Join Zaden Technologies on our mission to simplify the delivery and improve the utility of software products for our customers. At Zaden, we believe that our employees are our greatest assets. We hire the right candidates with the right skill sets who fit our culture of customer obsession, innovation, and continuous learning. We are our customer’s biggest advocate and we are looking for like-minded individuals who encompass these same ideals. It is important to us to offer you competitive pay and comprehensive benefits with opportunities that match your life and propel your career! Zaden Technologies is looking for a Technical Product Manager to own the critical bridge between engineering execution and customer-ready software. At Zaden, product direction and delivery discipline are the same job — you'll define and protect MVP scope, drive the roadmap, and own the cadence that ships it. Reporting directly to the CEO, this is an individual contributor role with a clear, direct growth path to Head of Product. We're hiring for the function and the skill, not the title — if you've been doing this work under a different name (Senior PM, Product Lead, Technical Program Manager), we want to hear from you. Note: This position is either hybrid in Huntsville, Alabama or Remote w/ 10-20% travel. Role Responsibilities: Define and hold the MVP cut line for each product — no scope creep, no pre-launch feature drift Own and maintain the product roadmap across the full product portfolio in partnership with engineering Maintain an always-on demo environment; "demo-able in staging" is your definition of done Translate requirements from federal and enterprise customers into prioritized, precise engineering tickets Run structured user research and drive product decisions from evidence, not opinion Hold the honest line between selling the future and demoing the now Coordinate go-to-market timing for each shippable slice with sales and leadership Communicate fluidly in two directions — brief program managers in their language, write precise tickets for developers Required Qualifications: U.S. Citizenship and ability to obtain a security clearance 5 years of product management or equivalent product delivery experience Demonstrated track record of taking a product from zero to one inside a complex organization with real stakeholders, competing priorities, and constraints Proven experience shipping software to paying customers — you know the difference between "capability exists" and "product is ready to sell" Technical fluency: able to hold scope conversations with engineers, read a pull request, and recognize when "almost done" is actually weeks away Proficiency with roadmap and delivery tools such as Jira, Linear, GitLab, etc Hands-on experience with AI assistants and agentic coding tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor, or Copilot) in daily work Experience in high-stakes, multi-stakeholder, regulated environments (defense, aerospace, government-adjacent, healthcare, finance, or similar) Bachelor's degree in a technical or quantitative field (computer science, software or systems engineering, information systems, electrical or mechanical engineering) or equivalent hands-on product experience Preferred Qualifications: Active security clearance Familiarity with DoD, federal research labs, or federal procurement, or enterprise software sold into government Experience delivering against government contract schedules or SBIR milestones Background in aerospace, defense tech, or engineering automation software Exposure to MBSE, systems engineering, or model-based workflows Familiarity with MBSE/SysML tooling such as Cameo/MagicDraw or SysML v2 Proficiency with product analytics tools such as Amplitude or Mixpanel, plus enough SQL to pull your own answers Experience with design and collaboration tools: Figma, Miro, Confluence, or Notion Cloud platform experience with AWS or Azure (GovCloud a plus) Master's degree in a technical field or MBA with a technology focus Product or agile certification (CSPO, Pragmatic Institute, or SAFe) or cloud certification (AWS or Azure) Expected Compensation: $150,000k-$170,000k/yr Compensation details: 150000-170000 Yearly Salary PI70258f30b999-25448-408702805c143e31-5e48-4549-b638-05792d185386
