Product Manager for Uncrewed Systems
to drive development and timely delivery of full-stack solutions integrated into the uncrewed ecosystem. Location: Chicago, IL or San Francisco, CA. Clearance requirement: U.S. Persons only (Citizens or Permanent Residents). What You'll Do
Lead cross-functional programs focused on integrating Somewear’s communications and data-routing capabilities into uncrewed systems (air, ground, maritime). Drive product roadmap and lifecycle from idea to production scale for uncrewed systems across Somewear’s entire stack. Collaborate with go-to-market team members to develop and refine contract and other submissions for programmatic funding opportunities. Own program execution for government-funded R&D initiatives with a focus on uncrewed systems, including timeline, milestone, and deliverable management in coordination with customer stakeholders. Partner with mechanical, electrical, software, and manufacturing engineers to deliver reliable, field-ready solutions that meet the rugged demands of uncrewed and autonomous platforms. Coordinate integration efforts with third-party uncrewed platform providers and government end users to ensure ease of adoption. Build and maintain strong technical relationships with key customers and vendors in the defense and aerospace ecosystem. What We're Looking For
Proven experience managing product development in a startup environment with a strong bias to action. Deep hands-on experience with uncrewed systems (e.g., Group 1-5 UAS). Familiarity with SDK development and API-based integration strategies for embedded systems. Excellent organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills. Ability to create clarity from ambiguity — synthesize customer feedback and first-principles thinking into crisp priorities that align engineering, operations, product, GTM, and customers. Technical fluency to partner with customers and engineers in shaping deployment and integration plans. Experience developing and executing proposals for US government-funded programs (SBIR, APFIT, CRADA, etc.) is a strong plus. What You'll Love About Somewear
You’ll own mission-critical product development from concept to delivery. You’ll have a leading hand in crafting our end-to-end solutions for a new GTM offering. You’ll work with a high-caliber, driven team that moves fast and supports one another relentlessly. You’ll directly support fielded systems used by military, emergency response, and public safety teams around the world. Details
Base pay range: $160,000.00/yr - $180,000.00/yr "This range is provided by Somewear Labs. Your actual pay will be based on your skills and experience — talk with your recruiter to learn more." Referral note: Referrals increase your chances of interviewing at Somewear Labs.
