Department: Product | Location: Remote | Travel Required

About this Role:

The Maritime Product Owner shapes the maritime vertical of our ASO software and Smart Sensors product line by bringing deep, first-hand industry expertise to bear on what we build and why. This role is the in-house authority on maritime ISR missions - surface search, vessel tracking and classification, dark-vessel detection, SAR, counter-narcotics, fisheries enforcement, and maritime domain awareness - and the trusted voice of the operator across Product, Engineering, Design, and Business Development. You will partner closely with our central Product Manager who owns delivery cadence, sprint mechanics, and cross-product backlog discipline; you feed that machine with validated mission problems, prioritized epics, and crisp requirements grounded in real operations.

This is an ideal role for someone with a maritime ISR or sensor operations background who wants to translate hard-earned operational expertise into a product that genuinely changes how maritime missions are flown. You will be expected to embrace AI aggressively - both because edge AI is the heart of our product, and because we expect our team to use modern AI tooling to move faster in everything we do.

What You'll Do:

Be the In-House Maritime Subject Matter Expert

• Serve as the team's go-to resource on maritime ISR missions, customers, platforms, and sensors - helping translate operational jargon into product context the team can build against.
  
• Help Engineering, Design, BD, and Marketing understand what maritime operators actually do and why it matters.

Own Maritime Customer & Mission Discovery

• Build relationships with maritime operators across DoD, U.S. Coast Guard, allied navies, and commercial maritime customers.
  
• Run discovery conversations - ride-alongs, mission debriefs, interviews - to understand real operational pain points, and keep personas and use-case notes up to date.

Shape Maritime Strategy & Roadmap

• Partner with the VP of Product on the maritime vertical strategy and roadmap.
• Keep an eye on the maritime market and competitive landscape, and flag anything worth acting on.
  
• Keep a prioritized maritime backlog, favoring features that reduce sensor operator workload.

Author High-Quality Requirements

• Write product briefs, use-case docs, and requirements in Confluence and Jira that capture how missions actually work.
  
• Hand off well-defined problems to the central PM for sprint planning, and stay involved through delivery.

Embrace AI in the Product and in How We Work

• Champion maritime applications of edge AI and autonomy in our product to compound our autonomy advantage, and use AI tools in your own day-to-day work.

Partner Across the Company

• Support Business Development on requests for information, proposals, and demos for maritime opportunities.
• Work with Product Marketing on positioning and with Design on maritime-specific UX.

What Success Looks Like:

• Maritime customers feel understood - they see Overwatch as a vendor who gets their world.
• Engineering has clear, stable requirements to build against.
• The maritime roadmap is grounded in real, validated problems, and customers notice the results.
• BD and Sales have credible, mission-informed materials that help conversations move faster.
• The central PM has a steady, well-organized stream of maritime work to plan around.

What You'll Bring:

• 5+ years operating, leading, or supporting airborne maritime ISR missions - as aircrew, sensor operator, mission commander, or equivalent - OR equivalent product experience deeply embedded with maritime ISR customers.
• Hands-on experience with EO/IR camera/gimbal systems on manned or unmanned maritime patrol platforms.
• Background with military, government, or defense contractors supporting maritime ISR.
• Strong written communication and comfort operating with ambiguity.
• Genuine enthusiasm for AI and a habit of using modern AI tools daily.

Preferred Qualifications (A Strong Plus)

• Prior military service in an aircrew, sensor operator, or ISR mission role, ideally maritime.
• Experience with defense acquisition pathways or in a defense-tech, GovTech, or aerospace product role.
  
• Experience working in agile teams, and familiarity with tools like Jira/Confluence.
• Familiarity with maritime C2 systems and data fusion.
