Director of Product, Core at Air, Arlington, VA

Director of Product, Core at Air in Arlington, VA. Full-time. Est. up to $200k. Apply with swipeandhired.

Air is the leader in Enterprise Readiness. Our mission is to establish readiness as a real-time condition that is continuously achieved. Today, a dangerous Readiness Gap exists between what the front line needs and what is delivered. Our AI-native platform, Air Enterprise Readiness, aligns development, production, delivery, and sustainment into one coordinated execution system for government agencies and industrial suppliers. By revealing true capacity, exposing real constraints, coordinating resources, and executing at the speed of operational demands, the front line gets what it needs to succeed.

Job Description

Air's customers run programs where one late part can hold up an entire fleet — and every mission team at Air depends on the same foundation to see it coming: the data, the connections across organizations, and the reusable workflows that turn raw signal into a decision. The Core Platform is that foundation. The challenge is deciding what it must become so that every solution built on it reaches the field faster, costs less to stand up, and compounds in value as more of the mission runs on Air.

As Director of Product for the Core Platform, reporting to the SVP of Product, you own the product strategy for the capabilities the rest of Air is built on. You set portfolio-level direction so that hundreds of decisions across teams add up to one coherent platform, and you are accountable for the business outcomes that follow - adoption across the portfolio and the economics of standing up each new deployment. You'll be in the room when we decide what to build, and you'll build and grow the product managers who deliver it.

This role is a full-time position located out of our office in Arlington, VA / Pittsburgh, PA / San Francisco, CA / Anywhere in the US.

This role may require up to 30% travel.
