Hermeus is a high-speed aircraft manufacturer focused on the rapid design, build, and test of high-Mach and hypersonic aircraft for the national interest. Working directly with the Department of Defense, Hermeus delivers capabilities that will ensure that our nation, and our allies, maintain an asymmetric advantage over any and all potential adversaries.
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.
