We're looking for a Staff Technical Product Manager to own critical product areas within Scale's Global Defense business, serving allied defense and national security customers. As a critical builder, you'll shape and develop Scale's global defense products, while being the primary technical expert to our global customers.
You'll be hands-on: write specs, prototype solutions, dig into technical architecture with engineers, and make product calls grounded in real technical understanding. You'll design and ship AI-powered products and tooling for defense and national security workflows, working side-by-side with engineering and ML teams.
You'll use customer context to inform what you build , understand allied defense workflows deeply enough to make opinionated product decisions, not just relay requirements. You'll navigate the unique constraints of defense product development across allied nations , classification environments, accreditation processes, air-gapped deployments , or be ready to learn these fast.
Ideally, you'd have a builder mentality: you're energized by going from zero to one, not by managing from a distance. You'll have 8+ years of experience in software engineering, ML engineering, or a deeply technical product role where you were hands-on with what shipped. You'll have technical fluency: software engineering or ML background (master's degree in computer science or equivalent experience).
Please note that our policy requires a 90-day waiting period before reconsidering candidates for the same role.
