  • Partner with engineering and product teams to translate complex technical capabilities into clear technology-security and foreign-disclosure strategies.

Interagency Engagement & Policy Shaping

  • Build trusted relationships across DoD, State, NSC staff, military departments, combatant commands, and other stakeholders involved in technology security, foreign disclosure, and international defense partnerships.
  • Represent Shield AI in policy discussions concerning the international release of autonomous systems, AI-enabled capabilities, and next-generation aircraft.
  • Develop persuasive policy positions, white papers, and senior-level briefings that demonstrate how Shield AI technologies advance U.S. national security, coalition, and partner objectives.
  • Anticipate emerging policy issues surrounding autonomous and AI-enabled technologies and help shape government approaches to their international release.

Security Cooperation & International Strategy

  • Help position Shield AI capabilities within U.S. security cooperation and security assistance frameworks.
  • Advise international campaigns on interagency decision-making, partner requirements, regional considerations, and technology-release strategy.
  • Align international opportunities with U.S. defense and foreign policy priorities and allied capability requirements.
  • Coordinate across Policy, Business Development, Legal, Engineering, Product, and Programs to establish unified strategies for priority international opportunities.
Required qualifications:
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience.
  • 12+ years of experience in national security policy, technology security, foreign disclosure, security cooperation, security assistance, international defense policy, or related government engagement.
  • Significant experience working in or with the U.S. national security interagency.
  • Strong understanding of U.S. Government decision-making around international defense partnerships, technology release, security cooperation, and security assistance.
  • Demonstrated ability to navigate complex interagency processes and build trusted relationships with senior government, military, technical, and operational stakeholders.
  • Strong strategic communication skills, including development of persuasive policy narratives, senior-level briefings, and decision materials.
  • Ability to understand sophisticated defense technologies and translate technical capabilities into policy and national security considerations.
Preferred qualifications:
  • Experience serving in a U.S. Government security cooperation, security assistance, technology security, foreign disclosure, or international defense role.
  • Experience as a Foreign Area Officer (FAO), Security Cooperation Officer, Defense Attaché, Country Director, Foreign Disclosure Officer, or in a comparable regional or international security role.
  • Experience working with DoD, State, DSCA, military departments, combatant commands, NSC staff, or U.S. embassies.
  • Familiarity with Foreign Military Sales, security cooperation, technology security, and foreign disclosure processes.
  • Experience influencing U.S. Government policy concerning the international release of advanced defense technologies.
  • Experience working with allied and partner governments on defense capability development or technology release.
