Senior Software Product Manager (Radio Spectrum Sensor Systems)

• We have an opportunity for a Senior Software Product Manager to bridge the gap between complex engineering capabilities and real-world customer missions
• This is not a “pure” product management role; it also requires some technical understanding of embedded and application software, as well as familiarity with electronic systems for RF mission applications
• You will be the “voice of the system”, working closely with our engineering teams to develop innovative solutions to high-stakes problems
• You will take ownership for some of our software products (both current and future), ensuring they not only have clear development roadmaps, but also solve the challenges faced by our global customer base and are the best they can be
• Software Solutions: Translate customer and partner requirements into actionable software product roadmaps and specifications, working collaboratively with Senior Engineering, Sales and Product Management colleagues
• Product Owner: As the owner and lead for Software Products (application and embedded) you will maintain a coherent roadmap across all software components, including real-time user applications, embedded real-time, APIs, and user-interfaces
• You will develop promotional content for the marketing team, and provide occasional support at trade events
• Product Lifecycle Management (PLM): Support the technical evolution of our RFeye products from concept through to deployment and end-of-life
• Contribute to PLM activities to ensure that RFeye products meet customer requirements, are positioned and marketed effectively and that the CRFS Sales, Customer Support and Application Engineering teams are fully equipped and trained to sell and support them
• Bridge Engineering & Commercial: Work alongside software and systems engineers to evaluate trade-offs, ensuring that engineering efforts align with market needs and commercial viability
• Market & Application Insight: Develop a deep understanding of use-cases, including TDOA/AOA geolocation, signal capture and analysis, and electronic warfare support
• Hands-on Product User: You will be expected to use our products and become proficient in their use with a view to ensuring they are the best they can be – forming your own judgement on capabilities, improvements and updates using ‘customer eyes’. You will also engage with end users to elicit their input and feedback
• Documentation & Training: Author high-quality white papers, requirement specifications, and user stories. Ensure the Field Application Engineering (FAE) team is fully equipped to demonstrate new system capabilities
