Job description

Technical Integration Lead

Location: US-PA-Mechanicsburg

Overview

We're seeking a Technical Integration Lead that knows their way around hardware, software, and everything in between. You'll lead a high‑performing development team to craft front‑end applications, and design business logic that integrates seamlessly with RFID hardware. But this isn't just about building stuff in a vacuum - it's about getting hands-on with customers, collaborating to solve bespoke challenges, and creating solutions that directly impact DoD missions. This role is equal parts strategic thinker, technical collaborator, and product evangelist. If you thrive in ambiguity, love building something from the ground up, and want to make a tangible difference, we want you. This position is located in Mechanicsburg, PA with occasional telework allowed and some travel required. Active Secret or Top Secret clearance preferred.

LMI is a new breed of digital solutions provider dedicated to accelerating government impact with innovation and speed. Investing in technology and prototypes ahead of need, LMI brings commercial‑grade platforms and mission‑ready software to federal agencies at commercial speed.

Leveraging our mission‑ready technology and solutions, proven expertise in federal deployment, and strategic relationships, we enhance outcomes for the government, efficiently and effectively. With a focus on agility and collaboration, LMI serves the defense, space, healthcare, and energy sectors - helping agencies navigate complexity and outpace change. Headquartered in Tysons, Virginia, LMI is committed to delivering impactful results that strengthen missions and drive lasting value.

Responsibilities

• Connect with Customers, Drive Solutions: Collaborate with DoD end users to understand mission needs, and architect RFID solutions that work in the real world - from the on-the-glass experience to on-the-ground hardware and infrastructure setups. Travel (lightly) to user sites to gather insights, validate designs, and ensure that we're building the right things, and building them right.
• Coordinate and Prioritize Cross-Program Initiatives: Prioritize like a boss - turn user needs into epics, stories and tasks, ensuring that the team ships impactful features with speed and intention. Guide your team through complex integration challenges to ensure the product roadmap is laser-focused on solving real problems for real people.
• Be Hands‑On Technical: Jump into solutioning discussions with engineers, write user stories that bridge customer needs with technical implementation, and crush technical debt like it owes you money.
• Collaborate Across Teams: Work hand‑in‑hand with engineers, designers, and stakeholders to keep the lines of communication open and the overarching platform trajectory sharp.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience as a Product Owner, Product Manager, or similar.
• A knack for connecting business and technical dots - you understand the software development lifecycle, and you're no stranger to hardware.
• Experience leading agile teams, managing backlogs and maintaining product roadmaps.
• A strong sense of user empathy, and ability to engage with users/customers/stakeholders to understand pain points, opportunities, and where we can best support them.
• Ability to navigate ambiguity with a smile, and figure out the path forward.
• Top‑notch communication skills to manage stakeholders, inspire teams, and advocate for the product.
• Certified Scrum Product Owner, PMP, or similar certification.
• U.S. citizenship required. Ability to obtain a Secret clearance (Active clearance? Even better).

Bonus Points For

• Background as a software or systems engineer.
• Hands‑on experience with RFID, mesh, IoT, or sensor technology.
• Background in leading digital experience development.
• Experience conducting user research, including interviews, user testing, and persona/journey map creation.

• Experience with the U.S. Navy.
• A proven track record of delivering solutions in DoD or similarly complex environments.
