- Serve as trusted technical advisor to senior government executives; translate technical decisions into business impact.
- Contribute to RFP/RFQ responses — write technical approaches, build solution architectures, develop sales materials.
- Drive new and existing partner relationships; Navigate multi-agency, multi-vendor environments with competing constraints.
Required Skills/Experience:
- Minimum 15 years in enterprise technology — architecture, engineering, or technical consulting.
- 3+ years contributing to or leading business development and capture activities — including pipeline development, client relationship management, win-theme development, and strategic pricing/teaming decisions in government professional services.
- Demonstrated ability to identify market opportunities and shape solution offerings — translating emerging technology trends (AI/ML, data modernization, cloud) into productized service lines or reusable frameworks that drive revenue growth.
- Demonstrated experience in regulated environments (FedRAMP Moderate, HIPAA, CJIS, IRS Pub 1075).
- State and local government experience — procurement cycles, compliance, public-sector IT realities.
- AI/ML practical experience (Bedrock, SageMaker, or equivalent; generative AI, RAG architectures).
- Application modernization — legacy to cloud-native (containerization, microservices, API-first).
- Data & analytics fluency — data lakes, analytics platforms, BI tooling.
