$120,000.00/yr - $180,000.00/yr Why we need

you

Demand from government contractors and defense primes already outstrips our founder-led sales team. We need a hunter-closer who can own the full cycle today and design the GTM engine that takes us through Series A and beyond.

What you’ll do

Create pipeline – Build targeted outbound campaigns to BD & proposal leaders at GovCon firms while working the steady inbound flow from conferences, LinkedIn, and referrals. Run tight deals – Lead discovery, product demos, solution mapping, and pricing for $20k–$150k+ ACV SaaS subscriptions (annual / multi-year). Navigate procurement – Guide prospects through FAR-driven vendor setups, security questionnaires, and ITAR/FedRAMP concerns. Close & expand – Land new logos, then drive usage and upsells across additional seats, modules, and business units. Build the machine – Write sequences, craft collateral, instrument CRM, and codify repeatable playbooks for future AEs and SDRs.

We’ll click if you…

Have 2-4 yrs quota-carrying success closing mid-market/enterprise SaaS ($15k-$250k ACV). GovTech, compliance, or security software a plus. Are equally lethal with cold outreach and warm referrals—you manufacture pipeline, you don’t wait for it. Can speak credibly to C-suite execs and proposal managers; you map power, quantify value, and push deals across the finish line. Forecast like a CFO and keep CRM hygiene immaculate. Thrive in ambiguity: you draft your own decks, iterate weekly, and chase feedback. U.S. citizen able to discuss controlled, export-restricted workflows with customers.

What success looks like in your first year

Month 1-2

Full mastery of GovEagle demo, objection handling, and GovCon buying journey; $1 M pipeline built

Month 3-6

First $500k in closed ARR; outbound sequences and discovery framework documented

Month 9-12

$1.5 M+ closed ARR
