  • Proven ability to manage long-cycle, high-value technical sales
  • Strong understanding of government procurement processes and customer buying behaviors
  • Excellent communication, relationship-building, and presentation skills
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, and maintain accountability in a remote environment
  • Willingness and ability to travel regularly for customer meetings, demos, and industry events

Preferred Qualifications

  • Prior experience selling simulation, training systems, modeling & simulation, VR/AR/XR, robotics, or related defense technologies
  • Existing relationships within key military training commands, program offices, or major defense primes
  • Experience with ITAR/EAR-controlled products or export-controlled technology
  • Current or previously held U.S. security clearance (Secret or higher)
  • Familiarity with contract vehicles, OTAs, or other common government acquisition pathways
  • Prior professional experience within the U.S. military, DoD, or a related government environment is a plus

What Success Looks Like

  • Consistent generation of qualified pipeline in the government and military simulation & training space
  • Accurate forecasting and disciplined opportunity management

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.
