Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Bengaluru, with teams in Colorado Springs (US) and Singapore, Digantara operates its own space-based sensor constellation (SCOT) and Asia's first commercial Space Domain Awareness (SDA) Command & Control Centre, fusing optical, radar and other sensor data - via architectures such as MOSAIC - into a real-time, sovereign picture of every object in orbit.\nThe company works with defence and government agencies and commercial satellite operators around the world and has raised significant capital - including a recent $50M round - from investors such as Peak XV Partners, Aditya Birla Ventures and SIDBI Venture Capital to advance sovereign space intelligence. Digantara's mission is to secure the space domain for the 21st century, built on the belief that as space is democratised, resilience depends on reliability.\nDigantara is a fast-paced, high-ownership environment where small teams of scientists, engineers and operators solve problems that, in many cases, no one has solved before. If you want your work to directly determine how nations and companies protect their assets in orbit, this is that kind of place.\nAbout the Role:\nWe're looking for a Product Lead to own Digantara's SDA and conjunction-analysis product line - from problem definition through global rollout. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with algorithms, data science and engineering teams to turn hard orbital and sensor-fusion problems into product decisions that customers will pay for and rely on.\nYou do not need to understand the underlying physics or astrodynamics. You do need to get to first principles fast, translate customer and business context into ruthless, defensible prioritisation, and own outcomes with real independence. You will be the primary product voice in front of defence, government and commercial customers worldwide, and you will largely determine - not just execute - the roadmap and strategy for one of Digantara's most important products.\nRoles & Responsibilities:\nProduct Strategy & Prioritisation:\nOwn the vision, strategy and multi-quarter roadmap for STARS Intelligence products, and defend it independently to leadership, customers and engineering.\n\nDrive prioritisation using customer needs, business impact and first-principles reasoning - not engineering interest or research novelty alone.\n\nMake explicit trade-off calls between depth (algorithmic sophistication) and speed-to-value for customers, and be accountable for the outcomes of those calls.\n\nCustomer & Market Engagement:\nServe as the primary product interface to global customers - defence and government agencies, commercial satellite operators, and insurers/regulators - running discovery, validating problems, and shaping scope directly with them.\n\nPartner with Sales and Business Development on positioning, pricing and packaging of Intelligence products across government/defence and commercial segments, including support for proposals and technical/commercial conversations.\n\nWorking With Algorithms & Engineering:\nPartner day-to-day with algorithms and data science teams to scope SDA capabilities into shippable product increments - asking the right questions without needing to derive the underlying models yourself.\n\nWrite clear PRDs and specs that translate complex technical trade-offs into unambiguous customer and business requirements.\n\nDefine success metrics (accuracy, latency, coverage, customer outcomes) jointly with engineering and hold the roadmap accountable to them.\n\nRun planning and prioritisation forums, track delivery against roadmap, and unblock cross-team dependencies.\n\nWhat We're Looking For:\n6+ years in product management, having owned a product's strategy and roadmap (ideally 0-to-1 or through a major scale-up) in a technical, data- or analytics-heavy domain serving enterprise, government or defence customers.\n\nRoadmap and prioritisation: A demonstrated ability to drive prioritisation from customer and business impact and first-principles reasoning, without needing subject-matter depth (physics, orbital mechanics) to do it credibly.\n\nStakeholder management: A track record of earning trust and driving decisions with highly technical teams - scientists, algorithm engineers, PhDs - as an equal partner rather than a backlog administrator.\n\nReal autonomy in prior roles: comfortable setting direction, making the call, and owning the outcome rather than waiting for it to be handed down.\n\nLocation: Hebbal, Bangalore\nWFO 5 days from office.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4621,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":6,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Satellite Manufacturing","Earth Observation"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-20T07:23:25Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":89,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.89,"p_room":1,"age_days":8,"expected_fill_days":32,"reasons":["conf:4","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-28T05:59:10Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/digantara-product-lead","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/digantara-product-lead.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-28T15:25:00Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":20888,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-29T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":1970},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=1970"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fdigantara-product-lead"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fdigantara-product-lead"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fdigantara-product-lead"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/digantara-product-lead\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fdigantara-product-lead"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":2903954}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"digantara.co.in","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":2903954},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
