Full Job Description
About the Role:

The Product Manager will report directly to the CEO, and is responsible for the outcome of Engineering OS, Heliux's product data and lifecycle management module:
  • Partner closely with our customers' engineering and operations organizations to gain a continuous understanding of their work-the good, the bad, the ugly.
  • Anticipate the capabilities that our customers need and translate them into clearly-defined product requirements that drive our design and engineering work.
  • Own end-to-end roadmap for Engineering OS, including priorities, development schedule, and release sequencing.
  • Author release communications for both existing customers and prospects, across every channel.
  • Work with Product Managers across Heliux to ensure the platform is greater than the sum of its modules.


About You:
  • Proven experience as a mechanical or electrical engineer designing and shipping complex hardware systems that are used in the field (i.e., not science projects).
  • Deep familiarity with (and disdain for) the legacy tools used by hardware engineers, such as CAD, PDM, PLM, ERP, MES, etc.
  • Proven systems thinker who finds the root problem rather than the requested feature and converts it into clear product requirements.
  • Willingness to be customer-facing-from the sales process, through deployment, and post-go-live.


Technical Environment:
  • Backend: Rust, Python, high-performance backend services, APIs, data-intensive systems.
  • Frontend: TypeScript, React, Next.js, real-time interfaces, WebSockets, Server-Sent Events (SSE).
  • Systems/Integrations: C#, Electron
  • Distributed Systems & Orchestration: durable workflow execution, Temporal, event-driven architectures, distributed systems
  • Infrastructure: Terraform, AWS, Bedrock, PostgreSQL, DynamoDB
  • Security/Compliance: CMMC, FedRAMP, ITAR


What We Offer:
  • Competitive compensation package, including company equity.
  • Healthcare coverage across medical, dental, and vision.
  • Company-provided lunch and dinner.
  • Unlimited PTO.
