Serve as the company-wide BD leader, owning pipeline governance, pursuit prioritization, and capture cadence across all markets while ensuring Huntsville remains the primary near-term growth engine.
Drive expansion beyond Huntsville, identifying and executing growth opportunities with additional DoD and federal customers aligned with Secmation’s technical strengths.
Own capture strategy and execution from qualification through award, including win themes, partner strategy, competitive positioning, bid/no-bid decisions, and executive-level pursuit reviews.
Build and scale the BD organization, establishing repeatable processes, metrics, and operating rhythm, and adding BD/capture resources as growth milestones are achieved.
Partner with executive and technical leadership to align customer needs with Secmation’s capabilities, while maintaining accurate forecasting and visibility into pipeline health.

Proven track record in business development capture activities and leading captures for programs valued at more than $10M.
