Product Manager - Platform

Revel•Los Angeles, CA

About The Position

Revel is hiring a Product Manager to own its platform: how its software is installed and kept current, how organizations manage access, and how customers build on it. Revel provides test and control systems for teams building rockets, satellites, reactors, and other high-stakes hardware. Many customers operate Revel in their own facilities, including fully air-gapped sites, where failed upgrades, overly broad permissions, or administrative tasks that require an on-site Revel engineer can impose significant costs. The role covers access and administration, APIs and SDKs, and the fleet manager used for deployments and upgrades. The Product Manager will own the platform from strategy through launch and determine what it should do next. They will set product direction, work closely with engineering on architecture and tradeoffs, discover customer operational challenges, and define metrics for platform performance. The Product Manager will collaborate with platform engineers, design, front-end engineering, field deployment engineers, and other teams. The role provides direct exposure to the Head of Product and CEO, as well as feedback from customers operating high-stakes systems.

At least 5 years of product management experience.
Experience owning a platform, infrastructure, or enterprise product, such as deployment tooling, identity and access, admin experiences, or developer platforms.
Strong technical fluency, including the ability to work through architecture and tradeoffs with engineers and document them clearly.
Experience shipping products used by administrators, IT teams, or security teams.
Ability to work across engineering, design, sales, marketing, and executives and explain technical tradeoffs to each audience.
