Technical Product Owner

Overview:

At LMI, we’re reimagining the path from insight to outcome at The New Speed of Possible™. Combining a legacy of over 60 years of federal expertise with our innovation ecosystem, we minimize time to value and accelerate mission success. We energize the brightest minds with emerging technologies to inspire creative solutioning and push the boundaries of capability. LMI advances the pace of progress, enabling our customers to thrive while adapting to evolving mission needs. 

The Opportunity
We need a Technical Product Manager who knows their way around hardware, software, and everything in between. You’ll lead a high-performing development team to craft front-end applications and design business logic that integrates seamlessly with RFID hardware. But this isn’t just about building stuff in a vacuum – it’s about getting hands-on with customers, collaborating to solve bespoke challenges, and creating solutions that directly impact DoD missions.

This role is equal parts strategic thinker, technical collaborator, and product evangelist. If you thrive in ambiguity, love building something from the ground up, and want to make a tangible difference, we want you.

What You'll Do

• Drive Solutions: Collaborate with DoD end users to understand mission needs and architect RFID integrations that work in the real world – from the front-end application to on-the-ground hardware setups.
• Lead the Build: Guide your development team through product design, agile sprints, and feature delivery while keeping the product roadmap laser-focused on solving real problems.
• Be Hands-On Technical: Jump into solutioning discussions with engineers, write user stories that bridge customer needs with technical implementation, and crush technical debt like it owes you money.
• Connect with Customers: Travel (lightly) to end-user sites to gather insights, validate designs, and make sure what we build actually solves the problem.
• Own the Backlog: Prioritize like a boss. Turn customer needs into epics, user stories, and tasks, ensuring the team ships impactful features, fast.
• Collaborate Across Teams: Work hand-in-hand with engineers, designers, and stakeholders to keep the lines of communication open and the product trajectory sharp.

Qualifications:

• 2+ years of experience as a Product Owner, Product Manager, or similar.
• A knack for connecting business and technical dots – you understand the software development lifecycle, and you’re no stranger to hardware.
• Experience leading agile teams and managing backlogs.
• Ability to navigate ambiguity with a smile and figure out the path forward.
• Top-notch communication skills to manage stakeholders, inspire teams, and advocate for the product.
• Ability to obtain a Secret clearance in a timely manner is required. Please note, only US Citizens can obtain a Secret clearance. 

Desired Skills:

• Hands-on experience with RFID technology.
• Background as a software or systems engineer.
• A proven track record of delivering solutions in DoD or similarly complex environments.
• The ability to understand and interpret “GitOps” 

 Why Join Us?
At our company, you’ll have the freedom to innovate, the tools to execute, and the support of a team that’s as passionate as you are. Plus, we don’t just reward hard work – we celebrate it.

• Opportunities to grow, learn, and shape a truly game-changing product.
