About the roleMuon Space is hiring a Staff Product Manager to own two of the highest-leverage software product surfaces in the company: our commercial Data Products business (GNSS-R, MSIR, and AICore-derived offerings) and the Muon Sim platform that underpins our ability to deliver mission-optimized constellations. Reporting to the VP of Product, you will own the productization decisions - pricing architecture, packaging, SLAs, customer tiering, data delivery - that will define the unit economics of our data business for years to come. This is a deliberate Staff-level (L6) IC role: the work requires the seniority to make load-bearing commercial decisions, the technical fluency to engage with platform and infrastructure leadership as a peer, and the judgment to operate across two adjacent surfaces with one owner until portfolio scale warrants a split.
ResponsibilitiesData Products & Commercial Strategy- Own the commercial product strategy for Muon's Data Products portfolio, including GNSS-R, MSIR, fire data products, and AICore-derived commercial offerings (defense-aligned variants remain under our Federal PM lead).
- Define and publish the pricing architecture, packaging, and customer tiering for Muon's data products - including how capabilities are bundled, what is included at each tier, and how pricing scales with refresh cadence, latency, and AOI / coverage.
- Define data SLA tiers and align them with downlink prioritization across the constellation; partner with Mission Operations and Bits-to-Ground to ensure SLA commitments are operationally achievable.
- Partner with the BD Data Manager and Growth org on data contracts, deal structure, and the boundary between standardized packaging and bespoke commercial terms.
- Drive the shift from bespoke, project-based data contracts to standardized, tiered packaging - a primary ROI vector for the role.
- Conduct customer interviews, gather feedback on product-market fit, and translate insights into roadmap decisions and pricing experiments.
- Analyze why deals are won or lost, identify product gaps and competitive advantages, and feed structured insights back into product development.
Muon Sim- Own product strategy and roadmap for the Muon Sim platform, recognized internally as a core differentiator for Muon's mission engineering value proposition.
- Translate complex mission modeling, simulation, and digital-twin requirements into a coherent product surface that serves both internal mission engineering teams and external customers.
- Define the productization path for Muon Sim - including the high-side variant on the roadmap - and the commercial and licensing model that supports it.
- Partner with simulation, mission engineering, and software teams to balance fidelity, performance, and time-to-market across releases.
Cross-functional Coordination- Partner closely with engineering teams across software, data infrastructure, ground systems, and cloud - operating at peer level with infrastructure and platform engineering leadership.
- Coordinate with the Director of PM - Federal on the boundary between commercial and defense-aligned data product variants.
- Coordinate with the Junior PM covering Muon Command and ground operations on adjacencies between data delivery and mission operations software.
- Support Go-To-Market teams with sales enablement, technical documentation, RFP responses, customer demonstrations, and product positioning materials.
- Work with marketing on product messaging, website content, case studies, whitepapers, and thought-leadership content that drives demand generation for Muon's data and software portfolio.
- Collaborate with the VP of Product and the broader PM team on strategic roadmap decisions, prioritization trade-offs, and Series-C-aligned narrative.
Required Qualifications- 8-10 years of Product Management experience, with demonstrated success owning data, SaaS, or API products in technically complex environments.
- Experience in remote sensing, geospatial, Earth observation, or adjacent deep-tech data domains.
- Proven track record shipping pricing architecture, packaging, and SLA design for multi-segment data products - and translating those decisions into commercial outcomes.
- Strong fluency working with infrastructure and platform engineering leadership; able to influence cross-organizational technical investment without direct authority.
- Experience defining and operating customer-facing data delivery, including APIs, portals, and tiered SLAs.
- Demonstrated ability to translate customer mission needs into detailed product requirements and acceptance criteria across software and data systems.
- Experience with configuration control and change management for production data products.
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field; advanced degree preferred.
Nice-to-have Skills- Familiarity with low latency data product.
- Familiarity with GNSS-R, MSIR, RF, or other space-based sensing modalities and their commercial applications.
- Experience productizing simulation, modeling, or digital-twin platforms.
- Familiarity with LEO constellation operations and the economics of downlink and tasking.
- Previous experience deploying or scaling a Product function within a space, defense, or deep-tech company.
- Prior experience in startup or high-growth technology environments.
SalaryThe base salary range for this role is $211,000 - $254,000 and will depend on a candidate's skills, geographic location, qualifications, and experience as defined during the interview process.
