How this role works

1. You join the bench. Before we name you on a proposal that matches this role, we send you the role, the hours and the hourly rate for that bid, and you confirm it in writing. If we don't win, you owe nothing.
2. A contract is awarded. The award funds the team named in the proposal. Your engagement begins, at an hourly rate agreed before you were ever named.
3. You work remote, paid from the contract. ~120–600 hrs per funded award — and if no award ever funds, you owe nothing and lose nothing.

What you'll do

• Own and prioritize the product backlog against user research and program outcomes
• Write the product roadmap and the success measures we commit to in a proposal
• Work with users, program staff and engineers to define what done means for each release
• Report product outcomes to the customer in plain terms

Required qualifications

• Direct experience as a product manager or product owner for a software product in use
• Working knowledge of user research, backlog management and outcome measurement
• U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident (U.S. person)
• Willing to be named on a federal proposal with a one-page resume, and to sign a short letter of commitment

Preferred qualifications

• Government digital-service or public-facing product experience
• CSPO or equivalent product-ownership certification
• Data or AI product experience

Compensation & structure

1099 consulting engagement. $60–$100 per hour, confirmed in writing before you are named on any proposal. Hours are funded by federal contract awards — this seat is scoped at roughly 120–600 hours per funded award, fully remote. Work and pay begin only if the contract is awarded — no award, no hours, no obligation.

How did you hear about us?

Five questions

These are the substance of the application. Answer from your own experience — a few sentences each is plenty, and “this never came up” is a real answer we want.

1. How often did a feature list that grew every sprint while the users' real problem went unsolved come up in your work, and roughly what did it cost — in hours, in people, or in rework? *

2. What tool or process does your organization use today for digital product management, and where does it fall short? *

3. If a better way to handle digital product management existed, which office or role would decide whether to adopt it? *

4. Do you have any role in deciding what tools or systems your organization adopts — approving, evaluating, or recommending a purchase? *

5. Do you own, or hold signing authority for, a company or consultancy of your own? *

May we name you, by name and title, as a proposed consultant on our team in federal proposals, and quote your answers above? * Please choose… Yes No
