Senior Manager, Strategic Contract Initiatives

You are an experienced contracts professional who thrives in complex, high-visibility environments where thoughtful execution, sound judgment, and strong partnerships directly influence customer success and business outcomes.

You understand that successful contract management is about more than compliance—it requires anticipating risk, enabling informed decisions, and helping cross-functional teams deliver on critical commitments.

You have managed the post-award execution of complex government contracts and understand how contractual requirements intersect with program delivery, customer relationships, financial performance, and organizational priorities.

You're equally comfortable discussing contract strategy with executives, collaborating with program managers and customer success teams, or working directly with government stakeholders to resolve issues and maintain productive relationships.

You know when to escalate concerns, when to drive consensus, and how to balance contractual obligations with practical operational realities.

As a people leader, you develop high-performing teams by setting clear expectations, creating operational discipline, and empowering contract professionals to grow in responsibility and ownership.

We are a distributed team of builders from military, operational, and technology backgrounds who care deeply about improving how important work gets done. Some team members work remotely, while others work directly alongside customers in operational environments around the world.
