Description
Senior Infrastructure Product Manager
Location: Tel Aviv (Hybrid)
Team: Product
Reports to: VP Product
About the Role
Airis Labs transforms unstructured media- video, images, audio, and text into actionable intelligence for government agencies and defense organizations worldwide. Our platform is deployed in some of the most demanding operational environments on earth: air-gapped networks, sovereign clouds, and mission-critical edge deployments where failure is not an option.
We're looking for a Senior Infrastructure Product Manager with 4+ years of experience to own the production reality of our platform. You'll be defining what production-grade means at Airis, ensuring every deployment meets the reliability, security, and scale demands of our customers
This role sits at the intersection of platform engineering, security compliance, and customer delivery. You will work closely with engineering leads, MLOps, DevOps, and customer-facing teams to drive production readiness across all active and upcoming deployments. Success requires deep technical credibility, operational discipline, and the ability to make hard prioritization calls under real deadline pressure.
What You'll Own
- Infrastructure - Define the platform’s infrastructure to enable developers and data scientists fast execution with easy development and testing, while also being deployable, robust, scalable, and cloud hybrid / on prem
- Scale & reliability — Drive platform uptime, latency, and performance under load across cloud and on-premise deployments.
- Deployment & interoperability — Manage deployment options (GCP, sovereign cloud, on-premise, air-gapped), containerization strategy (Docker/Kubernetes), and integration paths to customers environment (e.g. REST API, S3, Palantir Foundry).
- Upgrade paths & backward compatibility — Ensure smooth version management and upgrade paths that don't break active customer environments.
- Security & compliance — Own the security posture of the platform, including hardening, encryption, access controls, and ATO/FedRAMP compliance tracks.
What You'll Do
- Partner with engineering, MLOps and DevOps to define and build a deployable, robust, scalable, and cloud hybrid / on-prem platform.
- Build an agile platform to enable developers and data scientists fast execution with easy development and testing.
- Own the infrastructure and delivery roadmap - prioritizing scale, security, and operational improvements alongside feature work.
- Enable deployment programs (e.g., FedRAMP/ATO tracks, air-gapped on-premise rollouts, managed cloud deployments) from planning through successful go-live.
- Translate customer environment constraints — network topologies, security policies, data residency requirements — into actionable engineering requirements.
- Partner with GTM and customer teams to understand each customer's environment and constraints, enabling smooth and predictable integration.
- Define SLAs for uptime and latency; build the operational metrics and monitoring infrastructure needed to hold them.
Requirements
Must Have
- 4+ years of product management experience in a platform, infrastructure, data ingestion or DevOps context.
- Strong understanding of cloud infrastructure (GCP, AWS, or Azure), on-premise environments, containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), and production operations.
- Proven track record of owning and shipping production-grade systems under real operational constraints and with strict data residency requirements.
- Hands-on experience with security hardening, compliance frameworks (FedRAMP, ATO, or equivalent), and regulated deployment environments.
- Ability to read and engage meaningfully with engineering-level technical discussions.
- Excellent cross-functional communication: you translate between engineering reality and customer/business expectations without sugarcoating either side.
- Experience with government, defense, intelligence, or other regulated/classified (e.g. Banks) environments.
Strong Plus
- Familiarity with air-gapped or classified network architectures
- Experience with data pipeline infrastructure or high-throughput ingestion systems.
- Background in software engineering, DevOps, or site reliability engineering (SRE).
- Familiarity with monitoring and observability tooling (logs, metrics, alerting pipelines).
Why This Role Matters
At Airis, production isn't just a milestone — it's where our mission lives. Our customers operate in environments where the platform must work when it matters most. The Infra PM is the person who ensures that promise holds: every deployment, every release, every time.
If you're energized by operational complexity, thrive on making hard calls with incomplete information, and take personal pride in the reliability of systems that matter — this role is for you.
