ROLE HIGHLIGHTS: - Rotational Product Manager - Location: Espoo, Finland, with frequent travel - Working type: Hybrid (3 days / in office per week) - Department: Product Management - Employment type: Permanent - Employment is subject to applicable security screening (incl. SUPO, where required) WHY THIS ROLE IS DIFFERENT Few people get to start their product career in space. You will. ICEYE's Rotational Product Manager program develops early-career talent into product leaders in the space industry. You don't need product management experience to apply. We're looking for people with an outstanding academic record, ideally in a technical field, and a track record of standing out at work, who are deeply curious and learn fast. Over 24 months, you'll work in two product teams on our hardware or software products. In each one, you'll own a product end to end, from understanding the customer's problem to deciding what gets built and shipping it. Your work will shape how our customers use satellite data to make decisions that matter. A senior product leader will mentor you through each rotation, and you'll go through the program with a cohort of peers. You'll work closely with engineers, scientists and senior leaders, and you'll travel to meet customers and our local teams, working on some of their toughest problems. This program is fast and demanding, and it will stretch you. It may also be the most rewarding experience of your early career. When the program ends, you will have the opportunity to move into a permanent product manager role, or to explore roles in other domains at ICEYE. Spots are limited, and we review applications on a rolling basis, so apply today! WHO WE ARE ICEYE is the world leader in sovereign intelligence from space.
