About us

Onebrief makes military planning seamless and represents a shift in paradigm for future military decisions. It is an all-in-one tool that supports both the creative and process-oriented aspects of military planning. In Onebrief, planners use maps, boards, diagrams, timelines, slides and written products to create their plans—all while sharing a common database. Everything stays in sync, in real time. Our approach has been refined and validated through hundreds of user experiments.

Our product is currently in broad use at 8 of the largest military headquarters in the world. 3 of the 4 biggest operational plans in the US are currently built with Onebrief. Last year, we achieved 100% gross retention and 158% net retention—our revenue grew 4x and reached double-digit millions. We are backed by Y Combinator (S21) and top-tier VCs, including Caffeinated Capital (Affirm, Docker, Notion, and more) and Human Capital (Anduril, Brex, Snowflake, and more), and have raised a total of $53M in venture capital. Our elite team combines the best of tech and military talent, including education and experience at Google, Twitter, Adobe, MIT, Harvard, Special Operations, TOPGUN, and more.

What you will achieve

As a Product Manager, your primary responsibility will be to shape our product bets and to enable our teams to ship work that matters consistently and at a fast rate. Starting with opportunities identified with our leadership team, you will refine the problem definition, design a high-level solution, unpack risks and assumptions, and establish hard “no-gos”—all to ensure that projects are executed successfully with virtually no risk to schedule.

This is a critical position, with significant impact. You will work closely with planners around the world, conducting thorough research to elicit requirements and translate them into effective solutions.

You will report directly to Rafa, our Head of Product and co-founder.

About You

The ideal candidate is a “product person” who knows how to build software products. Someone who speaks the language of engineers and designers, and doesn’t rely too heavily on them to devise and evaluate solutions. Someone who is intelligent, charismatic, ambitious, and intellectually honest to know how to work with end users and elicit non-obvious requirements. Someone who writes well and can communicate difficult concepts clearly and objectively and knows how to communicate with different audiences. Finally, someone who is organized and naturally drives projects with the sense of ownership of a startup founder.

We are especially interested in candidates who have led product initiatives working on B2B/SaaS projects, involving aspects of creative support, data visualization, or modern collaboration.
