Role Description
We’re looking for a Business Development & Capture Lead ready to chart new territory across the DoD and Air Force landscape, drive meaningful impact, and grow alongside a company that’s redefining how modern missions are delivered.
If you thrive on autonomy, love the thrill of pursuit, and take pride in securing wins that matter, this is your opportunity to lead from the front.

- Develop win themes, orchestrate proposals, and build strategic alliances that position our client for success.
- Build and maintain strong relationships with DoD and Air Force decision-makers to shape acquisition requirements.
- Represent our client at customer sessions, industry events, and internal strategy offsites.
- Grow with the role – today you’ll operate as a solo capture lead, tomorrow you’ll help build and mentor the next generation of our BD organization.
