Sr Product Manager I - Airport Moving Map

Jeppesen ForeFlight builds industry-leading aviation software used by pilots, aircraft operators, and major airlines worldwide. As a high-growth, private equity-backed company, we are focused on scaling our operations, strengthening our financial infrastructure, and driving operational excellence across the business. Our team combines deep domain expertise with a collaborative, high-performance culture to solve complex challenges and support continued growth.

This is a US-based role requiring deep aviation domain expertise, particularly experience with avionics systems from companies such as Collins Aerospace, Honeywell, or similar OEM partners. The ideal candidate brings hands-on knowledge of airport operations, runway incursion prevention, and avionics display environments, combined with the autonomy to operate as a strong individual contributor in a fast-moving, high-ambiguity setting.

Key Responsibilities

• Communicate product requirements to software engineering and data production teams, ensuring collaboration and coordination on data, asset, and product specification enhancements aligned to roadmap targets.
• Document end-to-end business requirements and understand data needs for AMM products including avionics-integrated and EFB-based displays, front-panel applications, and back-office infrastructure systems.
• Coordinate across portfolios with internal consumers of AMM data — including Flight Deck and ForeFlight Mobile product and engineering teams — to ensure roadmap alignment.
• Coordinate with external airline and avionics customers to ensure customer requirements are integrated into the product roadmap.
• Document product architecture and develop product processes.
• Participate in data governance decisions and maintain data quality standards.
• Determine product pricing, pricing schedules, annual pricing updates, product plans, roadmaps, and product release plans.
• Develop new Airport Moving Map product concepts through to eventual launch, as well as vision documents to initiate technology development efforts.
• Manage all aspects of AMM product lifecycle management including the development and presentation of business cases.
• Serve as the single point of contact for all ongoing Airport Moving Map product decisions, ensuring implementation consistency and effective client communication.
• Collaborate closely with marketing, sales, distribution, support, technology services, data services, and legal/contracts to drive product decisions.
• Develop competitive response and contingency plans to address market-specific needs.
• Attend trade shows, industry conferences, and customer/partner meetings.

Basic Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience in product development/management, program management, and/or financial analysis.
• Significant aviation domain expertise required — specifically experience with avionics systems from OEM manufacturers such as Collins Aerospace, Honeywell, Garmin, or equivalent.
• Familiarity with Airport Moving Map products, avionics display applications, or airport navigation data.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, specifically with software engineering and sales/marketing teams.
• Demonstrated ability to take initiative and operate with high autonomy in a cross-functional environment.

Preferred Qualifications

• BA/BS in Technology, Business, Marketing, Finance, or equivalent work experience; MBA preferred.
• Experience with geospatial data, mapping, or aviation navigation systems.
• Familiarity with airport operations, ATC environments, or runway incursion prevention.
• Experience with web-based geospatial tools or digital mapping platforms.
