• Drive competitive intelligence and market sensing across FAA modernization programs, contract vehicles, and upcoming procurements, converting insight into pursuit action plans
• Partner across SAIC (solutions, operations, pricing, contracts, legal, corporate growth) to assemble differentiated offers and improve probability of winning
• Build and manage a partner ecosystem aligned to DOT and FAA needs, including OEMs, niche innovators, and small business teammates to strengthen access and competitiveness
• Pursue DOE opportunities selectively as a secondary adjacency, prioritizing only those that align with DOT and FAA momentum, and do not distract from core growth execution

• Demonstrated experience driving growth in FAA modernization domains (air traffic systems, NAS modernization, automation, engineering services, cyber, cloud, data)
• Track record of building high performing capture teams and improving win rate through repeatable growth operating rhythm
• DOE familiarity is a plus, but not required, and will be treated as secondary
