Our client, a dynamic, fast-growing federal technology organization is seeking a high-impact, entrepreneurial Senior Growth & Business Development Technology Leader to drive the expansion of their rapidly scaling technology practice. This role is designed for a proven builder; someone who has taken a portfolio from hundreds of millions toward the billion-dollar mark and is ready to do it again with full ownership, autonomy, and executive support.
If you're obsessed with growth, energized by tech and looking for a place where your work can genuinely shape the trajectory of a $2B company looking to nearly triple it's revenue in 5 years, this role was built for you.
About the Opportunity
This is a pivotal executive leadership role responsible for defining and executing the growth strategy for a technology-focused federal contracting practice. You will own a portfolio of ~$300M with an aggressive path toward $1B+, leading strategy, business development, client solutioning, and market expansion.
The foundation is built.
Your mandate is to amplify it; to scale, strengthen, and shape what comes next.
What You Will Lead
Strategic Growth & Market Leadership
- Build and execute a long-term growth roadmap that accelerates the organization toward a billion-dollar technology practice.
- Identify emerging market needs, capability gaps, and acquisition targets that strengthen the company’s competitive positioning.
- Drive diversification across DoD, DHS, and civilian agencies, not a narrow or niche lane.
Business Development, Capture & Solutioning
- Lead the full BD lifecycle: shaping opportunities, win strategy development, teaming, capture, and proposal leadership.
- Create and maintain a high-quality, forward-looking pipeline aligned with strategic priorities.
- Operate as a solution-first executive arriving with ideas, strategies, and pathways to win.
Technology Influence & Vision
- Bring a genuine enthusiasm for technology; be able to credibly engage in conversations around cloud, cyber, AI/ML, data, software, and emerging tech.
- Partner with solution architects and delivery leaders to build modern, differentiated offerings.
Leadership & Practice Building
- Serve as the example of what a high-performing, growth-minded practice leader looks like.
- Roll up your sleeves; this is for a inspiring and involved leader with executive presence, not a distant overseer.
- Build, inspire, and mentor a team capable of supporting rapid and sustained growth.
Client & Partner Engagement
- Cultivate trusted relationships with key government customers, primes, partners, and technology ecosystem leaders.
- Position the company as a go-to technology innovator across the federal space.
Who You Are
A Proven Growth Architect
- 15–20+ years of success in federal technology growth, BD, capture, or practice leadership.
- A track record of taking organizations from ~$100–300M toward $1B, ideally within multi-agency technology contracting.
- Demonstrated P&L responsibility and experience driving aggressive, achievable growth plans.
Entrepreneurial to the Core
- High energy, grit, and a startup-like mentality - even inside a large, complex environment.
- Thrives with autonomy; if leadership “looked away for a year,” you’d return with measurable progress and clear wins.
- Loves to build: capabilities, practices, teams, and new paths to revenue.
Technology-Forward
- You may not be an engineer, but you're absolutely a technology lover who speaks tech with credibility and curiosity.
- Skilled at blending tech fluency with business strategy, BD, and capture expertise.
Cultural Fit
- Dynamic, grounded, collaborative; someone who lifts the energy of the room.
- Confident but not ego-driven; respected for follow-through, clarity, and integrity.
- Willing to be in Tysons Corner or Tulsa to engage closely with leadership and the practice you’re building.
Qualifications
- 15–20+ years in federal technology services, business development, capture, or P&L leadership (10 is too light; 25+ only works if you still love the doing).
- Demonstrated success scaling a tech capability or business from mid-market to enterprise levels.
- Bachelor’s degree required; advanced degree preferred.
Why This Role Matters
This role sits at the center of a company that is rapidly scaling, acquisition-minded, and deeply committed to becoming one of the most respected technology players in the federal market.
Your impact will be visible, measurable, and career-defining.
If you’re a builder who loves technology, thrives on growth, and wants to lead something meaningful and massive - we want to meet you.
