We're looking for a driven, mission-obsessed sales leader to help write the next chapter.

You combine strategic thinking with tactical execution — and you have the track record to prove it. • You speak the language of both the boardroom and the server room. • You understand how the Air Force buys, how programs are funded, and how to navigate the federal acquisition landscape. • You have genuine passion for the mission — not just the deal. • You move fast, think big, and deliver results This position requires that the candidate selected be a US Citizen and currently possess and maintain an active Top Secret security clearance. Key job responsibilities What You'll Do • Own the number. Develop and execute an account strategy that drives revenue growth across the USAF portfolio — from infrastructure modernization to advanced mission workloads. • Build executive relationships. Earn trust with senior military leaders, SES civilians, program managers, and contracting officers through de
