Job Description
We are seeking a product-oriented leader to lead the integration of new capabilities into our existing Modernization Application within the Ark platform. This is an individual contributor role responsible for prioritizing, rationalizing and integrating existing prototypes into our production Modernization Application. As the product owner, you are accountable for delivering valuable and differentiated solutions at scale, end to end, within our Ark platform.
Govini’s application-aligned product managers are responsible for thinking broadly across the communities we serve and delivering solutions that provide value to a wide range of customers. They partner with account-aligned PMs, as well as our engagement and implementation teams, to broadly scale “in-the-field” solutions and improve the configurability and adaptability of our platform. In this role, you will partner with customer-aligned PMs to integrate prototype workflows and capabilities into full production within the Ark. You should be highly motivated by the market adoption of the solutions you successfully launch.
In order to do this job well, you must possess exceptional judgment when it comes to identifying opportunities to deliver customer value in a productized way, as well as in the relative prioritization of those opportunities. You must work effectively cross-functionally in often ambiguous circumstances, distilling market opportunities to a clear set of objectives and solutions, and articulating the value of those solutions both internally and externally.
In a typical week, a product manager could expect to:
- Spend several days on-site with users, seeking to understand how users across a variety of accounts utilize Ark to relieve pain points and triangulate the commonalities to build new valuable workflows in the Ark.
- Draft a clear and compelling articulation of customer problems, and what a good solution to those problems would look like in the Ark
- Partner with the sales team to help assess opportunities and understand the degree to which customer requirements align with product capabilities and roadmap
- Define how those solutions deliver value across a wide range of customer environments and determine what features are necessary to support the broad adoption of the solution
- Collaborate with engineering and design teams to deliver the most promising capabilities
This role is a full-time position located in our Arlington, VA office
This role may require up to 40% travel
We firmly believe that past performance is the best indicator of future performance. If you thrive while building solutions to complex problems, are a self-starter, and are passionate about making an impact in global security, we’re eager to hear from you.
