Experience with federal procurement vehicles and alternative acquisition pathways.

Executive-level communication skills with the ability to translate technical solutions into mission impact and return on investment.

Comfort operating in highly technical environments and influencing senior decision-makers.

Bonus qualifications include experience with space or defense innovation programs, familiarity with cellular and open network standards, spectrum policy exposure, or network-as-a-service models.

Benefits:

Competitive base salary range of $200,000 to $220,000 annually, based on experience and location.
