Staff AI/ML Engineer - Product Owner

About the Team

At Lockheed Martin Aeronautics, the Aero AI team builds trusted artificial intelligence that strengthens deterrence, accelerates engineering insight, and directly supports the warfighter. We don't chase AI for its own sake; we apply it deliberately where it meaningfully improves performance, survivability, and decision advantage. Our mission is to ensure the next leap in air dominance comes from hundreds of smarter decisions made faster across engineering, testing, and operations.

We are a culture that empowers employees to think big, lead with a growth mindset, and make the impossible a reality. Our people are some of the greatest minds in the industry, and we place an emphasis on fostering an inclusive environment built upon integrity and corporate responsibility.

About the Role

We are looking for an AI/ML Product Owner to translate data-driven insights into high-impact products that meet the stringent security, compliance, and performance expectations of military and intelligence-community customers. You will be the voice of the product-defining strategy, building roadmaps, and delivering AI-enabled capabilities.

Your work will span the full product lifecycle, from market research and requirement definition through agile delivery, launch, and continuous improvement. You will partner with cross-functional stakeholders—including engineering, data science, operations, legal, senior leadership, and external customers—to turn technical AI/ML insights into real product value. This role requires navigating the complex security and compliance landscape of the Department of Defense while championing our products internally and externally, balancing business goals, user needs, and revenue objectives.
