About Vantor

Vantor is forging the new frontier of spatial intelligence, helping decision makers and operators understand what is happening now and shape what comes next. We are a team of problem solvers, changemakers, and go-getters working together to help customers see the world differently. Come be part of a mission, not just a job, where you can shape your future, build the next big thing, and change the world.

To be eligible for this position, you must be a U.S. Person, defined as a U.S. citizen, permanent resident, Asylee, or Refugee.

The opportunity

Vantor is evolving the TensorGlobe platform with an Operational World Model: a persistent, high-fidelity representation of the physical world that combines One World Terrain-grade geospatial content, simulation, synthetic sensor modeling, and real-time operational context. The goal is practical: give people and AI a shared environment for training, planning, mission rehearsal, and operations.

As a Product Manager, you will own the product direction for this capability. You will turn customer and mission needs into a focused roadmap, align the product leads and engineering teams that contribute to it, and guide delivery of the first capabilities customers can use. This is an individual contributor role for someone who can operate comfortably across geospatial data, software platforms, simulation, and mission workflows without needing to be the deepest technical expert in every area.

What you will own

You will work in a cross-functional model within the Vantor Product organization. You will have product ownership for the Operational World Model scope, including its vision, priorities, roadmap, requirements, and customer value proposition. Engineering leaders own technical implementation and architecture; The Go To Market (GTM) organization leads opportunity and contract activities. You will align these groups and make product decisions within your scope through influence and clear tradeoffs.

• Work with the broader Product team to set and communicate the product vision, strategy, and 12-24 month roadmap for the Operational World Model.

• Choose and sequence the highest-value use cases, balancing customer impact, technical feasibility, delivery capacity, and business priorities.

• Define product requirements for terrain and 3D content, dynamic world state, sensor modeling, simulation fidelity, interoperability, and real-time services.

• Align Raptor, Forge, Operational Terrain, and Living Globe product leads around common requirements, shared platform capabilities, and clear ownership boundaries.

• Represent the product with customers, executive leaders, industry partners, government stakeholders, GTM.

Your primary priorities

1 Establish a focused product strategy

Create a clear product narrative, target outcomes, decision framework, and roadmap that explain what the Operational World Model is, who it serves, and what the team will deliver first.

2 Prioritize mission-relevant use cases

Work with customers and internal stakeholders to focus on a small number of high-value workflows, such as mission rehearsal, AI development, digital engineering, operational planning, and multi-domain decision making.

3 Turn the strategy into deliverable capabilities

Partner with Engineering to write requirements, define MVP boundaries, resolve tradeoffs, and guide delivery of an initial capability that can be demonstrated and evaluated by real users.

4 Build alignment across the Product portfolio

Identify where Raptor, Forge, Operational Terrain, and other product areas can share data, services, interfaces, and customer outcomes while protecting each product's distinct responsibilities.

5 Support customer adoption and growth

Help shape demonstrations, proposals, partner discussions, and product positioning so market commitments remain aligned with the roadmap and delivered capabilities.

What success looks like in the first 6-12 months

• First 90 days: complete a current-state assessment, stakeholder map, and customer/use-case review; publish a clear product narrative and initial prioritization criteria.

• By 6 months: establish an agreed roadmap with the relevant product and engineering leaders, document the top use cases and MVP boundaries, and create an actionable requirements backlog.

• By 12 months: deliver or validate an initial Operational World Model MVP through a customer-informed demonstration, pilot, or operational evaluation; capture the lessons and update the roadmap.

• Throughout the first year: improve alignment across Raptor, Forge, Operational Terrain, and GTM so stakeholders understand priorities, dependencies, risks, and decisions.

Minimum qualifications

• 7+ years of product management or equivalent product leadership experience, including ownership of complex software, data, or platform capabilities from strategy through delivery and adoption.

• Experience in at least one of these areas: geospatial intelligence, defense technology, modeling and simulation, autonomy, digital twins, ISR, robotics, or AI-enabled mission systems.

• Demonstrated ability to translate ambiguous operational or customer problems into product strategy, prioritized roadmaps, requirements, and measurable delivery outcomes.

• Experience leading through influence across Engineering, Business Development or Sales, Program Management, and customer or government stakeholders.

• Technical fluency in modern software platforms, cloud-native architectures, APIs, data models, and data-driven product development; able to engage engineers in meaningful tradeoff discussions.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including executive presentations, customer conversations, and clear product documentation.

• Ability to travel up to approximately 20-30% in support of customers, partners, and industry events.

Preferred qualifications

• Experience with One World Terrain, geospatial production pipelines, 3D visualization, game engines, or modeling and simulation technologies.

• Working knowledge of AI, autonomy, robotics, synthetic sensor modeling, digital engineering, or operational AI workflows.

• Knowledge of interoperability standards and defense simulation ecosystems, including DIS, HLA, OGC standards, or related technologies.

• Experience working with the U.S. Department of Defense, allied or international government organizations, or commercial organizations applying geospatial and operational technologies.

• Experience launching platform capabilities that serve multiple products, markets, or customer segments.
