The ideal candidate brings deep technical fluency in connectivity systems, proven success navigating complex government procurement environments, and the leadership instincts to build and scale a high-impact commercial practice.

• Own executive relationships across priority government entities - including border security, coast guards, rural municipalities, ministries of education, and national emergency services
• Lead structured VoC programs through field engagements and stakeholder interviews; translate insights into customer personas, segmentation frameworks, and product and pricing inputs
• Identify opportunities in remote and frontier markets, including grant programs, universal service mechanisms, and rural broadband subsidy structures
• Lead complex deal pursuits from identification through award, structuring agreements across diverse international procurement frameworks
• Coordinate cross-functional teams - product, engineering, legal, and contracts - to develop winning proposals and RFP responses
• Ensure all engagements adhere to applicable acquisition regulations, export controls, and compliance requirements

• 12+ years of enterprise or government sales and business development experience, with demonstrated success leading complex, multi-stakeholder pursuits
• Proven track record selling connectivity, telecommunications, or infrastructure solutions to government or public sector customers
• Solid working knowledge of satellite architectures (LEO, MEO, GEO), RF fundamentals, and terrestrial last-mile technologies including LTE/5G, VSAT, and microwave backhaul
• Ability to read and interpret technical RFPs, system specifications, and SOW documents
• Willingness to travel up to 75%, including international engagements
• Bachelor's degree required; MBA or technical graduate degree preferred

• Familiarity with government network security frameworks (FedRAMP, FISMA, CMMC) and the ability to engage credibly with technical procurement teams

This is a rare opportunity to define how TeraWave engages with one of the most compelling and underdeveloped segments in global connectivity. As the company's senior leader for this space, you will shape not just pipeline, but product strategy and go-to-market architecture across international markets. For a leader who wants to build something - this is that opportunity.
