Senior Technical Product Manager - Agentic AI Platform

Frontdoor Defense; San Diego (CA); Híbrido; USD 220.000 - 330.000; Jornada completa

Descripción de la vacante

Shield AI is seeking a Principal Technical Product Manager to own the CTO’s agentic AI portfolio, defining the product roadmap and ensuring cross-team execution across the enterprise. You’ll influence strategy, ship developer tools, and shape autonomy platforms in a fast‑moving, high‑stakes defense‑tech environment.

You will translate strategy into clear requirements, drive adoption of internal platforms, and partner with engineers, operators, and executives to deliver high‑impact results.

Formación

• 8+ years of product management for deeply technical products.
• Technical fluency: you read code, work APIs and CLIs from a terminal, and prototype with AI coding tools yourself.
• Shipped developer tools, internal platforms, or AI/ML products — and drove their adoption.
• Working fluency in LLM-based systems: agents, evaluation, context management, fine‑tuning trade‑offs.
• Metrics‑driven operating style: you define KPIs, instrument products, and report against thresholds and objectives.
• Exceptional written communication — requirements, strategy docs, executive briefs.
• Proven stakeholder management up to the executive level across engineering, product, and business functions.
• This role requires travel to a Shield AI location 1-3 times per quarter

Responsabilidades

• Own product definition, roadmap, and metrics across the office of the CTO's agentic AI portfolio: an enterprise knowledge assistant (Brain), an agent‑driven engineering platform (Springboard), and enterprise AI/data modernization and app development.
• Translate CTO strategy into crisp requirements, milestones, exit criteria, and KPIs - then hold the line on them.
• Drive adoption of internal platforms: reduce onboarding friction, instrument usage, track NPS and active users, and run developer advocacy and objection handling.
• Shape product direction for foundation‑model based autonomy architectures and model lifecycle tooling (evaluation, fine‑tuning, verification, deployment).
• Run continuous discovery with engineers, operators, and executive stakeholders; turn findings into prioritized backlogs.
• Prioritize ruthlessly across competing initiatives with small teams and aggressive timelines.
• Analyze the agentic tooling, enterprise AI platform, and foundation model ecosystem; recommend build/buy/partner positions to leadership.
• Author strategy documents, product briefs, and executive updates that drive decisions.
• Manage transitions of maturing products from incubation to owning organizations.
