• Share domain expertise, mentor other product managers, and help raise the team’s collective capability in regulated and restricted cloud delivery.

Qualifications

• Mission-centered product thinking with the ability to convert operational customer needs into durable platform and product strategy.
• Strong judgment in ambiguous environments, especially where customer demand, compliance constraints, and product maturity are all evolving simultaneously.
• Executive communication and stakeholder management across senior government leaders, industry partners, and Atlassian executives.
• Cross-functional leadership with the ability to align diverse teams around a common strategy without direct authority.
• Technical fluency in cloud infrastructure and security, including isolation models, cryptographic controls, zero trust concepts, and restricted-environment operations.
• Team development and knowledge sharing, with a demonstrated ability to elevate peer PMs and strengthen organizational capability over time.

Requirements

• Active TS//SCI security clearance is required.
• 8+ years of product management experience, including substantial experience delivering cloud or SaaS products to the U.S. Intelligence Community, Department of Defense, or defense industrial base customers.
• Demonstrated experience delivering products for IL5, IL6, or Top Secret environments, including experience navigating authorization and accreditation processes.
• Deep understanding of disconnected and air-gapped deployment models, including challenges related to updates, support, identity, licensing, and operations with limited or no external connectivity.
• Strong familiarity with intelligence and defense mission environments and the workflows these customers rely on for planning, coordination, knowledge sharing, and service delivery.
• Proven ability to work across product, engineering, security, and compliance to turn complex requirements into practical product outcomes.
• Experience with U.S. federal procurement, contracting, or public sector delivery models is strongly preferred.
• U.S. Citizenship is required.
