This helps in quickly understanding the context of opportunities. We are looking for strong experience with: - 1+ year; in roles such as sales, business development, or proposal coordination. Experience in a government contracting environment is highly beneficial, even if at an internship or entry level. - Broad understanding of the sales process and proposal process – the candidate should know that winning government work involves identifying opportunities, building relationships, and writing proposals, even if they haven’t led these activities themselves. - Strong interpersonal skills and professional demeanor; able to communicate effectively with internal teams and external stakeholders (e.g., scheduling meetings with a military officer’s office, or emailing a partner company professionally). - Quick learner with initiative – capable of taking on a variety of tasks across different disciplines (both BD and capture) and eager to absorb new information about the defense contracting industry. - Good organizational and multitasking abilities, since this role juggles research, administrative support, and creative input for strategy/proposals. - Knowledge of tools and resources used in federal BD, such as CRM software (Monday.com or Deltek GovWin) for pipeline tracking, and basic proficiency in Google Workspace, Canva, or Beautiful.ai for producing proposal and briefing materials. - Some technical acumen in the company’s service areas (DevSecOps, AI, etc.) – you don’t need to be an engineer, but you should be comfortable learning the buzzwords and concepts so you can discuss them and identify relevant opportunities. - Any training or certifications in either sales (e.g., Certified Sales Development Associate) or proposals (e.g., APMP Foundation) that show commitment to developing a professional skill set. What will make you successful: - Support the full lifecycle of business development and capture activities in the Air Force and broader DOD market. Being involved in everything from early market research and lead identification to assisting with proposal preparation for specific opportunities. - Conduct preliminary research on potential opportunities (e.g., reviewing Air Force acquisition forecasts and SAM.gov postings) and identify leads that match the company’s DevSecOps, software, AI, and cybersecurity services. Help qualify these leads by gathering essential information on scope, timing, and fit with company capabilities​ - Maintain and update the opportunity pipeline database or tracker, ensuring that data on pursuits is current (e.g., customer contacts, next action, probability of win). Prepare regular pipeline reports for senior management review. - Engage in outreach to customers and partners in a supporting role: schedule introductory meetings or capability briefings with Air Force contacts, prepare background materials or agendas, and join Rackner's leadership team in those meetings to learn and take notes on customer needs. - Assist in developing capture strategies for pursuits. For smaller or less complex opportunities, work with Rackner's leadership to outline win themes, identify what information is needed from the customer, and draft a basic capture plan. For larger captures, provide support by organizing data, preparing notional winner profiles, or coordinating meetings. - Contribute to proposal development when the time comes: help draft minor sections (like management approach or resumes), ensure proposal templates are properly formatted, collect past performance citations, and verify compliance with RFP requirements. Essentially, bridge between the BD phase and proposal phase by carrying forward knowledge gathered during customer interactions into the proposal content.

Let's chat and see if we are a good match! Opportunity: We are looking for an experienced business and relationship development professional to join our team and continue the outpaced growth we are seeing in our Defense business. The right professional will love developing relationships with technical and mission leaders inside the DOD and will have a track record of success in developing these relationships and closing significant business. We are looking for somebody that understands the secure environments, can sell into the secure environments and has a strong acumen for cloud and cyber based solutions. While years of experience are not the driving factor we would expect somebody in this role who has spent a significant amount of time inside the Air Force, Space Force, Navy, Marines, or Army. This person would understand how to navigate programs, DoD environments, work with partners, be collaborative inside the VSO team and help to develop structured opportunities for capture. We value self-starters with a competitive edge and a love for engaging people. Preference will be given to experience and relationships in the Air Force, Navy, Marines or Space Force. The Mission: We are seeking a high-caliber Business Development and Capture Lead to fuel the continued exponential growth of our Defense portfolio. This isn't a role for a spectator; it’s for a closer who thrives at the intersection of mission-critical technology and strategic relationship building. You will be responsible for identifying, qualifying, and winning large-scale opportunities within the DoD, specifically focusing on Cloud, Cyber, and Secure Services solutions. Proven Experience & Key Results: The ideal candidate doesn't just "understand" the DoW; they have a documented history of navigating its complexities to deliver hardware, software, or services. We are looking for: - A Proven Closer: A track record of leading capture efforts for programs ranging from $10M to $100M, with a high "win rate" on competitive solicitations. - Mission Depth: Extensive experience (typically 10+ years) operating within or selling directly to the Air Force, Space Force, Navy, or Marines. You should know the difference between a requirement and a "nice-to-have" before the RFP is even drafted. - Technical Sales Acumen: Demonstrated success selling Cloud (IL5/IL6) and Cybersecurity solutions. You can bridge the gap between a General’s mission requirements and a CTO’s technical architecture. - Network Intelligence: An existing, "warm" network of technical and mission leaders (PEOs, PMs, and Senior Executives) who trust your judgment and expertise. - Strategic Capture Mastery: Experience managing the full capture lifecycle—from initial market intelligence and gate reviews to final proposal submission and post-award growth. Core Responsibilities: - Drive Revenue Growth: Exceed annual booking and revenue targets by identifying high-probability targets within the DoD. - Navigate the DoW: Masterfully navigate the POM cycle, various funding vehicles (OTA, FAR-based, Mid-Tier Acquisition), and complex security requirements. - Partner Ecosystem Management: Collaborate with systems integrators (GSIs), boutique firms, and internal VSO teams to build winning "team-prime" or "team-sub" configurations. - Market Influence: Act as a thought leader at industry days and conferences, positioning our brand as the premier choice for secure cloud and cyber innovation. Who You Are: - A Self-Starter: You don’t wait for a lead; you hunt. You have a competitive edge that drives you to beat the competition to the "X." - Collaborative Warrior: You win as a team. You know how to leverage internal technical resources to build a bulletproof value proposition. - Clearance: Must possess (or be able to obtain) a high-level security clearance (TS/SCI preferred). Requirements - Must be located in Northern Virginia and willing to work on-site in a hybrid capacity - Must possess (or be able to obtain) a high-level security clearance (TS/SCI preferred) - Please note that pursuant to a government contract, this specific position requires U.S. citizenship status - While years of experience are not the driving factor we would expect somebody in this role who has spent a significant amount of time inside the Air Force, Space Force, Navy, Marines, or Army. This person would understand how to navigate programs, DoD environments, work with partners, be collaborative inside the VSO team and help to develop structured opportunities for capture. We value self-starters with a competitive edge and a love for engaging people. - Preference will be given to experience and relationships in the Air Force, Navy, Marines or Space Force. What is Important to Us: - You are an excellent communicator in writing and speaking. - You have the ability to work independently but also value teamwork. - Your problem-solving skills are excellent. - You are looking for a job where performance appraisals occur regularly, and you look forward to advancing your career. - You seek a community of virtue-centered co-workers and clients.
