In the role of Head of Growth you will build and lead business development, sales, and government affairs alongside our CEO and team of DoW liaisons.

- You've personally closed and grown multi-million-dollar government or OEM contracts
- You know the budget cycle (PPBE, POM, authorization and appropriations) and how a line item becomes revenue
- You understand technical data rights, depot law, and how qualification and technical authority really work
