Summary:
HII Mission Technologies is seeking a Senior Product Strategy Specialist to support the development of product strategy and investment recommendations across the Mission Technologies division. This role will directly report to the Director of Product Strategy as the second hire in Mission Technologies’ new Product Strategy function. Working at the intersection of engineering, product management, sales, and executive leadership, you will translate warfighter needs, mission gaps, and acquisition signals into clear product concepts and investment‑ready business cases.
You will co-develop mid‑to‑long‑term product roadmaps, conduct rigorous investment analyses, and shape strategic partnerships across industry, government, and academia to accelerate product evolution within the division.

• Founding team member: Shape a new function from the ground up with high visibility and executive access
• Consulting skills + product ownership: Blend strategic thinking with tangible product outcomes
• Mission impact: Drive national security capabilities that matter
• Career growth: As the function scales, gain opportunities to build and lead a team

• Translate capability needs into product definitions: Partner with business groups, the CGO, and CTO/Products and Innovation to distill warfighter needs, capability gaps, and emerging DoD requirements into clear product definitions, MVP scopes, and prioritized roadmap inputs aligned with business objectives.
