    Job Summary

    Dassian is seeking a Product Manager to own the strategy, roadmap, and delivery of SAP-based product offerings, with strong preference for candidates who bring domain experience in the Aerospace & Defense (A&D) industry. This person will bridge the gap between customer/project needs, SAP's evolving platform capabilities, and engineering execution, shaping SAP-based products that serve highly regulated, mission-critical environments.

    Job Description

    Key Responsibilities

    • Own the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for several SAP-integrated product lines, aligning with Dassian company goals, evolving technology, and A&D market/customer demand.
    • Gather and prioritize requirements from customers and internal stakeholders to define product features.
    • Translate business and regulatory requirements (e.g., FAR, CMMC, DCAA/DCMA audit needs) into clear product requirements and user stories for engineering teams.
    • Partner with engineering, SAP functional consultants, and UX to plan and deliver releases on SAP S/4HANA, SAP BAIP, or related SAP technology stacks.
    • Manage the product backlog, write and refine epics/user stories, and participate in sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives with development teams.
    • Define and track success metrics (adoption, performance, customer satisfaction) for each release; use data to guide iteration.
    • Serve as the internal subject-matter expert on A&D industry workflows (contract management, earned value management, government property, cost accounting standards) as they relate to product features.
    • Engage directly with customers and prospects — demos, discovery calls, advisory boards — to validate product-market fit and gather feedback.
    • Coordinate go-to-market activities with sales, marketing, and customer success, including positioning, messaging, and enablement materials.
    • Monitor SAP roadmap changes (e.g., S/4HANA innovations, SAP Business Data Cloud, Business AI/Joule) and assess impact on product strategy.
    • Manage relationships with SAP as a technology partner where relevant (partner programs, co-innovation, certification requirements).

    Required Qualifications

    • 4+ years of product management experience, ideally on products built on or integrated with SAP (S/4HANA, ECC, BTP, or related modules).
    • Working knowledge of SAP data structures, transaction flows, and integration patterns sufficient to have informed conversations with engineering and consulting teams.
    • Experience writing clear requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria; comfort working in an Agile/Scrum environment.
    • Strong stakeholder management skills — able to balance customer requests, engineering constraints, and business priorities.
    • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including experience presenting to executive and customer audiences.

    Preferred Qualifications

    • Direct experience in the Aerospace & Defense industry as a practitioner, consultant, or product manager serving A&D customers.
    • Familiarity with government contracting compliance frameworks relevant to A&D (FAR/DFARS, CMMC, ITAR/EAR, earned value management, cost accounting standards).
    • Experience with SAP modules commonly used in A&D program and contract management (e.g., project systems, contract/funds management, government property, cost/revenue recognition).
    • SAP hands-on configuration/consulting background.
    • Experience working at or with an SAP ISV, systems integrator, or SAP-focused consultancy.
    • Prior experience selling into or supporting U.S. federal/DoD customers or primes.

    Education

    • Bachelor's degree in Business, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
