Staff Product Manager, Software

About the role Muon 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. Responsibilities Data 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 adj
