Shield AI's Special Projects team, inside the CTO's office, hires a principal technical product manager to work across Hivemind, the company's software stack for autonomous aircraft teaming. The team does not own products; it steers development toward the CTO's priorities, embeds with product teams, and builds reference implementations for low-TRL work across EdgeOS, Pilot, Forge and Commander, which span C++ autonomy code, Go/Python/TypeScript services and a React mission-planning UI. Colleagues are senior L5–L8 engineers; the posting details the team's charter more than the role's day-to-day duties.
