Track record of driving work to a deadline across dependencies you did not control. * German at native or fully fluent level, and professional English. * German or European citizenship and eligibility to obtain a German security clearance (Sicherheitsüberprüfung). * Willingness to work on-site in Berlin, hybrid with at least two days per week in the office, and to travel within Germany to customers and users. * You take ownership and proactively push work forward. * You communicate clearly and collaborate smoothly within and across teams. * Pragmatic mindset: you balance operational ambition with what can actually be shipped. * You enjoy working with complexity and turning ambiguity into structure. * Product management or product ownership experience: backlog, sprint cadence, release scoping is a plus. * Project management experience in defence or publicly funded programmes (national, EU, NATO) is a plus. * Experience writing CONOPS, operational requirements or capability documents is a plus. * Familiarity with satellite imagery, remote sensing, or AI and machine learning products is a plus. * Experience delivering software into secure on-premise or air-gapped environments is a plus. * An existing valid German security clearance (SÜ2 / SÜ3) is a plus. * Working knowledge of NATO standards and interoperability for imagery and geospatial data is a plus. ## Description You will be part of Sektion 4, LiveEO's government-solutions product team. Sektion 4 owns its roadmap and delivers funded R&D projects and defence engagements end-to-end, from research through to production, and sets its own technical direction. You will work day to day with the team's ML engineergs, full-stack engineers and geospatial data egineers, and across LiveEO with sales, pre-sales and the teams building the Twinspector satellite programme. Externally you are in front of military and agency users, partners and integrators, in workshops, requirement sessions and user tests. Tech stack & tools: * Linear (backlog, sprints) * Confluence * Google Workspace * LiveEO's own ISR and analytics applications * Figma * QGIS and comparable viewers * STAC-based imagery catalogs Data: * very high resolution optical imagery * synthetic aperture radar * 3D surface models * cloud and secure on-premise / air-gapped deployments * agentic tools for a variety of work. Your challenge As Product Manager (f/m/x), you own what we build for defence and intelligence customers, and you are accountable for it reaching them. * Own the ISR product: take our imagery intelligence application from working demonstrator to deployable product. Define the release scope, the deployment and support model for secure on-premise environments, and drive the first installation at a real user. * Run the backlog: work with the engineering team in two-week sprints. Translate operational needs into written requirements and user stories, prioritise ruthlessly, cut scope when it is the right call, and keep the team pointed at what matters. * Deliver defence projects end to end: own scope, milestones, deliverables and stakeholder communication for our customer-facing defence engagements, and take on new projects as the pipeline converts. * Build and maintain the roadmap: reconcile project timelines, our concept of operations and component readiness into one roadmap that is used to set priorities, not to describe them afterwards. * Be the ISR authority in the team: bring operational depth on the intelligence cycle, collection and tasking, and imagery exploitation. Be the person engineering asks how an analyst would really use this, and the person sales asks what we can credibly claim. * Work with users and customers: run workshops and user sessions, gather and structure feedback, demonstrate the product, and support bids and proposals with operational substance. ## Related Videos - [Boost Productivity with AI: Figma & Playwright MCP Workflows - Aris Markogiannakis](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1768-boost-productivity-with-ai-figma-playwright-mcp-workflows-aris-markogiannakis) - [42 x 2 Canvases Later: Two Years, Two Minds, Many Lessons](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1458-42-x-2-canvases-later-two-years-two-minds-many-lessons) - [Europe's Digital Future: How to Get from User to Shaper?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100027-europe-s-digital-future-how-to-get-from-user-to-shaper) - [Designing UX for SRE Agents in High-Stakes Incidents](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100003-designing-ux-for-sre-agents-in-high-stakes-incidents) - [Designing the Future of Human<>Agent Collaboration](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1447-designing-the-future-of-human-agent-collaboration) - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) ## Related Articles - [The Biggest German Tech Companies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/424-the-biggest-german-tech-companies) - [Finding Jobs in Germany](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/375-finding-jobs-in-germany) - [Finding IT & Technology English-speaking Jobs in Germany ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/446-finding-it-technology-english-speaking-jobs-in-germany) - [Jobs in Germany for Americans](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/423-jobs-in-germany-for-americans) - [How to Find Tech Jobs in Berlin](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/291-how-to-find-tech-jobs-in-berlin) - [Where to Find German Tech Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/366-where-to-find-german-tech-jobs)
