Original job description

Who We Are

At Firestorm, we are building the future of expeditionary defense manufacturing and autonomous systems. Modern conflict has exposed a fundamental problem: the systems needed most by operators are often too expensive, too slow to produce, and too difficult to sustain at scale. Firestorm exists to change that.

We develop mission-adaptable aerial systems and deployable manufacturing infrastructure designed to put capability directly into the hands of the warfighter. From modular unmanned aircraft to xCell - our deployable microfactory - our goal is to make defense systems rapidly deployable, adaptable, and producible at the point of need.

We are looking for builders, operators, and problem-solvers who want to work on meaningful technology with real-world impact.

About the Role

The Staff Program Manager – Software & Autonomy leads the planning and execution of software and autonomy programs for unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) delivered to defense customers. This role owns cost, schedule, and technical performance for software-intensive efforts, including flight software, autonomy and mission software, ground control systems, and integration with hardware platforms. The Senior PM translates operational needs into executable software roadmaps, aligns engineering, test, and production teams, and serves as the primary customer interface for software and autonomy deliverables.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Aerospace or Electrical Engineering, or related technical field 8+ years of program or project management experience, including at least 4 years managing software-intensive programs Experience managing programs for DoD or other defense customers, including CDRLs, contract milestones, and customer reviews Demonstrated experience with Agile software development methods and tools (e.g., Jira, Confluence) and with integrating Agile execution into an IMS Strong command of program financial management, including budgets, EAC/ETC, and cost and schedule variance analysis Working knowledge of software development lifecycle, configuration management, and release management Excellent communication skills, including briefing executives and government customers U.S. citizenship, as required for ITAR-controlled work and security clearance eligibility

Preferred Qualifications

Active Secret clearance or higher Experience with UAS, autonomy, robotics, or flight software programs Familiarity with autonomy architectures, open standards and ground control software Experience with EVM and program control tools PMP, PMI-ACP, or Scaled Agile (SAFe) certification Experience in a fast-paced startup or rapid-scaling defense technology environment
