About the Role

We are seeking a visionary, operationally sharp Chief Product Officer to lead our product strategy, with a deep focus on the public sector. This executive will own the full product lifecycle — from discovery through delivery — and serve as the bridge between our SaaS capabilities and the complex procurement, compliance, and mission requirements of federal agencies. The ideal candidate brings a rare combination of commercial product leadership and hands-on experience navigating the federal landscape.

Core Responsibilities

  • Define and drive the overall product vision, strategy, and multi-year roadmap aligned to federal agency missions and emerging government priorities
  • Lead product solutioning efforts in response to federal opportunities — including RFIs, RFPs, and Sources Sought — translating SaaS capabilities into compliant, compelling technical solutions
  • Partner closely with the Head of Federal Sales, Capture, and Proposals teams to shape win themes and product positioning for federal bids
  • Build and maintain deep relationships with federal agency stakeholders, program offices, and end users to drive continuous discovery and feedback loops
  • Own the product compliance roadmap — including FedRAMP authorization (In Process, Moderate/High), FISMA, NIST 800-53, IL2/IL4/IL5, as applicable
  • Oversee the product management organization, establishing best-in-class agile and iterative development practices tuned for government delivery timelines
  • Develop and present product briefings, demos, and capability overviews to C-suite stakeholders, agency CIOs, and technical evaluators
  • Collaborate with engineering and architecture teams to balance commercial innovation with the security and compliance demands of classified and unclassified federal environments
  • Track federal technology policy shifts (e.g., Executive Orders, OMB memos, NDAA provisions) and translate their implications into product decisions
  • Drive competitive differentiation by monitoring the GovTech landscape, incumbent contract holders, and emerging agency technology needs
