The Product Manager - Mission Systems & Payloads is responsible for defining, prioritizing, and coordinating mission systems and payload-related capabilities across Hermeus aircraft programs. This role spans weapons integration, pylons, stores management behaviors, mission equipment, digital interfaces, and the integration of legacy armament standards into modern OMS/UCI-based mission architectures. This position owns mission systems and payloads from a product and outcome perspective, ensuring payload capabilities are defined, sequenced, and integrated in a way that supports operational needs, flight-test objectives, and customer expectations. The role ensures payload capabilities are treated as repeatable, scalable product offerings rather than one-off integrations. The role partners closely with Engineering, Test, Autonomy, Ground Segment, and Program teams to support execution and ensure payload-related capabilities are testable, demonstrable, and aligned with program milestones.
