About Authorium
Government agencies manage trillions in public funds through outdated, fragmented processes that waste time, money, and human potential. Authorium transforms this reality with an AI-powered workflow platform that modernizes how government operates - from procurement and grants to legislative review and budget collaboration.
As a fast-growing company with a strong financial foundation, we've proven product-market fit by helping state agencies eliminate months of delays, streamline complex workflows, and unlock millions in operational efficiency. Our expanding customer base includes state governments, local agencies, and federal partnerships, including a SBIR Phase II with the U.S. Air Force Research Lab.
What sets us apart is our deep government expertise - 60% of our team are former government leaders who understand the unique challenges of public sector transformation. We've built a no-code, modular, AI-enhanced platform with enterprise-grade security (SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, GovRAMP) that adapts to complex government processes while delivering measurable results in weeks, not years.
Join us at a pivotal moment in government modernization. With the national focus on government efficiency and our proven platform gaining momentum across all levels of government, we're positioned to scale our impact dramatically while building the future of civic technology.
The Role
We are seeking an experienced Head of Product to join our executive leadership team and lead our product organization through a critical scaling phase.

Based in the San Francisco Bay Area with our CEO and core product team, you'll drive rapid collaboration and strategic alignment as we scale.
You will be responsible for transforming our product organization from startup agility to enterprise-grade execution, ensuring we deliver consistently on customer commitments while positioning the company for significant growth.
