Onebrief is collaboration and AI-powered workflow software designed specifically for military staffs. By transforming this work, Onebrief makes the staff as a whole superhuman – meaning faster, smarter, and more efficient.
We take ownership, seek excellence, and play to win with the seriousness and camaraderie of an Olympic team. Onebrief operates as an all-remote company, though many of our employees work alongside our customers at military commands around the world.
Founded in 2019 by a group of experienced planners, today, Onebrief’s team spans veterans from all forces and global organizations, and technologists from leading-edge software companies. We’ve raised $123m+ from top-tier investors, including Battery Ventures, General Catalyst, Insight Partners, and Human Capital, and today, Onebrief is valued at $1.1B. With this continued growth, Onebrief is able to make an impact where it matters most.
This is a senior leadership role responsible for driving the vision, strategy, and execution for Onebrief’s core application. You will oversee and coordinate our persona-based teams (Commander, Collaborator, and Creator), as well as any emerging front-end focused teams, ensuring seamless user experiences, coherent workflows, and consistent product quality across the entire application layer. Candidates who have lived in both worlds – the military environment and high-scale collaboration SaaS (e.g., Google Docs, Microsoft 365/Teams/Loop, Atlassian Confluence, Figma, Miro)-will be especially competitive. This role requires a strong blend of strategic leadership, cross-team orchestration, and hands-on product management expertise, with a focus on high-impact outcomes for diverse end-users in complex, high-stakes environments.
