• 5+ years of federal channel, partnerships, or business-development experience, with a proven track record of building and monetizing reseller, systems-integrator, or teaming relationships.


• A strong track record of originating partner-sourced pipeline and driving it to closed federal business.


• Deep understanding of how resellers, SIs, and prime contractors operate — their business models, buying processes, and how they win in the federal market.


• Fluency in federal contract vehicles and teaming mechanics (GSA MAS, GWAC/IDIQ, NASA SEWP, ITES-SW2, OTAs, and prime/sub teaming structures).


• Experience negotiating and executing teaming agreements and channel partnerships.


• The ability to balance strategic leadership with hands‑on execution — a conceptual thinker who also does the work.


• Excellent relationship-building skills across all levels, from partner sales and engineering teams to senior partner leadership.


• Strong cross‑functional coordination skills, working across sales, proposal, product, and marketing.
