  • Go-To-Market (GTM) Strategy: Design and execute joint GTM plans and revenue-driving initiatives that align partner capabilities with federal mission requirements.
  • Pipeline Engineering: Build and maintain a robust multi-year pipeline through partner networks, focusing on both short-term wins and long-term "designed-in" programs.
  • Sales Enablement: Lead technical presentations and solution demonstrations to ensure partners are fully equipped to position CUAS technologies effectively.
  • Capture Management: Collaborate with internal and external teams to develop win plans and capture strategies for major IDIQ, GSA, and OTA contract vehicles.
  • Account Mapping: Conduct regular pipeline reviews and joint account mapping with partner executives to uncover and qualify new opportunities.
  • Contract Liaison: Serve as the primary technical and commercial liaison between partners and internal Engineering, Product, and Legal teams for complex contract negotiations.
