We provide clients with large business opportunities and training within our small business agility and people first culture. You will be joining a dynamic and highly motivated team with one goal: "Get quality and secure solutions in the customers hands as soon as possible".

The ideal candidate will be a strategic and results-oriented leader with a deep passion for Government contracting and a proven ability to drive growth in the defense sector, particularly within the Space domain (including USSF, MDA, NASA, SDA, and other space stakeholders). The ideal candidate is a collaborative innovator who thrives in dynamic environments, excels at building high-trust relationships with federal stakeholders and strategic partners, and is committed to advancing Sabel Digital Engineering initiatives.

You should be a pro‑active problem solver with a strong understanding of Space missions, priorities, and procurement processes.
