About us

One team. Global challenges. Infinite opportunities. At Viasat, we're on a mission to deliver connections with the capacity to change the world. For more than 35 years, Viasat has helped shape how consumers, businesses, governments and militaries around the globe communicate. We're looking for people who think big, act fearlessly, and create an inclusive environment that drives positive impact to join our team.

What you'll do

We are thrilled to announce an exciting opportunity for an onsite Technical Product Manager, Terminals to join our dynamic team in Carlsbad, CA!

You will provide strategic direction and leadership for the planning and definition of satellite terminal products (Ka-band, L-band, 5G). These terminals are located at the customer venues (aircraft, ships, homes, enterprises), for use on Viasat's networks, delivering connectivity to consumers. You will collaborate with all Viasat markets and with the broad set of engineering teams, on their needs and find the best solution to meet market needs including schedule, TCO, performance, and reliability.

The day-to-day

  • Create and deliver OKRs, business cases, roadmaps, and reduction of technical debt working with Business PdMs, engineering teams, and other Tech PdMs across engineering.
  • Ensure Access Edge terminals engineering teams have clarity of requirements, and acceptance criteria.
  • Drive product roadmaps, and lifecycles to increase ROI (technology reuse, platform convergence), and decrease TCO (quality, diagnostics, supportability, EOL, simpler business process).
  • Focus on the customer experience, optimizing every detail from installation to reliable operation.
  • Use your technical knowledge to make tradeoffs, estimates, feasibility assessments on your own, and review these with the engineering teams rather than depending on them for every ask.
  • Ensure price/performance of the products match the needs of each business.
  • Track and monitor technology advancements in the market, and industry standards.
  • Identify potential partnerships, help make Build vs Buy decisions.
  • Travel up to 20%
What you'll need
  • 10+ years of progressive experience in relevant areas and a track record of success.
  • 4+ years of experience in a technical product management role.
  • Demonstrated success managing connectivity products used directly by a customer (e.g., modems, antennas, mobile phones). Products must have delivered B2C connectivity experiences to consumers (e.g., passengers, crew, mobile user).
  • Proven ability working with global, cross-functional teams to successfully define and manage complex technology products.
  • Must have been a hands-on engineer with success building software and/or hardware for terminal/modem/mobile phone products. You will use this knowledge and experience to make the decisions/tradeoffs/assessments in the day-to-day life of a Technical Product Manager.
  • Technical expertise in embedded software, terminal/modem/phone hardware, satellite technologies, wireless interfaces and waveforms, WiFi, 3GPP/5G/NTN.
  • Strong analytical skills and the ability to evaluate product performance metrics effectively to inform strategic decisions and future improvements.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, with experience conveying complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and senior leadership.
What will help you on the job
  • Demonstrated track record of delivering cross-functional, customer-facing products to ensure a world-class customer experience.
