Senior Product Manager

General Atomics Integrated Intelligence Inc. (GA-Intelligence) develops cutting-edge software solutions that transform raw data into actionable intelligence. We specialize in real-time global situational awareness and battle management, processing petabytes of data from hundreds of sources across air, land, and sea. Our systems-including the widely used THRESHER and DRAGONSPELL platforms-support tens of thousands of users across the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community and enable mission-critical national security operations.
We operate at the scale of global sensor networks-processing hundreds of thousands of observations per minute. Our architecture leverages technologies such as Kafka, AWS, NiFi, and GeoMesa (which we designed and open-sourced) to deliver resilient, high-throughput systems that convert streaming data into operational advantage.

At GA-Intelligence, we build real systems that operators rely on every day. We combine the credibility of a seasoned defense contractor with the agility and technical depth of a mission-driven software company. As a privately held organization, we make long-term decisions grounded in mission impact-not quarterly earnings cycles.
