Staff Product Manager
About the role
Muon Space is hiring a Staff Product Manager to own one to two product areas end-to-end. Depending on the candidate background and company need, that could be the spacecraft platform (the bus and its mission-configurable options), the RF and optical bits-to-ground data path (hardware and software to get data from satellite to ground), on-board high-performance compute, or our instrument portfolio. Across any of these areas, you will own the roadmap and the productization decisions — architecture, capability tiering, SLAs, reuse-vs-customization, and (where applicable) pricing and packaging — that define how Muon scales commercially and operationally for years to come.
Reporting to the VP of Product, this is a deliberate Staff-level (L6) IC role. The work requires the seniority to make load-bearing commercial and architectural decisions, the technical fluency to engage with engineering and leadership as a peer, and the judgment to operate across multiple surfaces — hardware, software, operations, and go-to-market — without a team to delegate to.
This position is hybrid and requires working on-site in our San Jose, CA office three days per week.
