Hidden Government Jobs (NOW HIRING)

At Hidden Level, we’re building the future of airspace awareness through cutting-edge RF sensing technology. Our mission is to make the world safer—whether it’s protecting troops, securing infrastructure, or enabling smarter cities. We design, manufacture, and deploy advanced sensor systems that deliver real-time insights for defense and commercial applications.

Position Overview:

Hidden Level is transforming airspace safety with innovative, scalable drone detection and airspace technology. We provide real-time, actionable data to help customers enhance security, situational awareness, and airspace monitoring across a range of environments.

As Hidden Level continues to grow, we are looking for a Contracts Manager I to support day-to-day contracting activity across U.S. Government, commercial, vendor, and manufacturing-related matters. This role will independently handle routine contract administration tasks and begin taking on first-pass review and redlining work under moderate supervision.

This position is a good fit for someone who has a strong foundation in contract administration, is comfortable working across teams, and wants to continue developing experience in government contracting, commercial agreements, SaaS/DaaS terms, subcontract support, and contract operations.

Location: This role is expected to be hybrid in Syracuse, NY or Washington, DC, with 2 days in office and 3 days remote each week. Additional in-office attendance may be needed for onboarding, training, program support, manufacturing or operations coordination, or business priorities.

Responsibilities: 

The Contracts Manager I will support routine government, commercial, and manufacturing-related contract actions using approved templates, playbooks, and approval paths. Responsibilities may include:

• Administering routine contract actions, including modifications, options, funding actions, task orders, subcontract actions, and closeout support. 
• Supporting review of RFP/RFQ terms, FAR/DFARS applicability, flow-down requirements, reps and certs, and subcontract packages. 
• Processing customer order forms, NDAs, bailment agreements, simple SOWs/change orders, vendor SaaS orders, and click-through/clickwrap reviews. 
• Performing first-pass review and redlining of teaming agreements, subcontract documents, and other contract-related legal documents within approved templates and playbooks. 
• Maintaining contract files, repositories, trackers, and key contract dates, including deliverables, CDRLs, renewals, option windows, and closeout milestones. 
• Creating and updating purchase requisitions tied to contract actions, vendor support, subcontract packages, program requirements, or manufacturing-related support. 
• Assisting Accounting with invoice questions, billing backup, contract-term confirmation, and related documentation as needed. 
• Assisting Service Operations with lease-related contract review coordination and escalation of legal or business issues. 
• Coordinating with Legal, Finance, Accounting, Program Management, Procurement, Service Operations, Security/Privacy, Export/Trade, Business Development/Sales, customers, vendors, and partners. 
• Escalating non-standard terms, higher-risk issues, or matters outside approved authority before moving forward.
