In this high-impact role, you’ll be responsible for building strategic relationships, shaping programs, and driving business development activities that translate cutting-edge technology into deployed maritime capabilities.

This role is ideal for a mission-driven leader with a proven track record navigating Navy acquisition pathways, engaging across commands, and building pipeline opportunities from concept through contract.

  • Lead capture efforts and contribute to proposals, white papers, and customer briefings
  • Represent AndrenaM at Navy trade shows, industry days, and technology demonstrations
  • Collaborate with the Head of Growth and executive team to align customer engagement with product and engineering roadmaps
  • Track Navy priorities, budget trends, and acquisition cycles to ensure long-term positioning
  • Mentor and support growth team members and help build a scalable BD function

Basic Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience in defense business development, capture management, or Navy program engagement
  • Deep knowledge of Navy acquisition structures, procurement cycles, and relevant tech transition pathways (SBIR, OTA, BAAs, etc.)
  • Strong relationships across Navy labs, PEOs, and operational communities
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Familiarity with maritime systems (e.g., USVs, UUVs, ISR, MCM, undersea warfare)
  • Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional capture efforts from identification to award
  • U.S. citizenship and ability to obtain or maintain a security clearance

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience at a venture-backed defense startup or dual-use technology company
  • Familiarity with autonomy, C2 systems, or distributed sensing networks
  • Prior military service, especially Navy or maritime domains
  • Experience working with primes, FFRDCs, or Navy SBIR transition partners
  • Knowledge of international naval markets or coalition partner procurement

Why Join Us?

  • Competitive salary: $165,000 – $190,000 USD
  • Generous equity incentive package with long-term upside
  • Negotiable profit-sharing based on mission outcomes and program wins
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 401(k) retirement plan
  • Flexible PTO and holidays

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
