Job Description:

The AI Platform Product Manager will drive the strategy and execution of Shield AI’s next-generation autonomy intelligence stack—enabling customers and internal teams to train, evaluate, and deploy foundation and domain models that power resilient autonomy at the edge. This PM owns the product vision and roadmap for the Hivemind AI Platform (Forge, training pipelines, data infrastructure, evaluation, and deployment toolchains), ensuring we can manufacture, govern, and field advanced world models, robotics foundation models, and vision-language-action systems safely and at scale.

This role sits at the intersection of AI/ML, autonomy, model lifecycle, infrastructure, and product strategy. The PM partners closely with engineering, AI research, Hivemind Solutions, and field teams to deliver the tooling that enables sovereign autonomy , AI Factories at the edge , and continuous learning —capabilities that are central to Shield AI’s strategic direction.

This is a high-impact role for an experienced product leader excited to define how foundation models are trained, validated, governed, and deployed across thousands of autonomous systems in highly contested environments.
