The opportunity

We build robots that find other robots and knock them out of the sky. At a time when air superiority can no longer be taken for granted, the Air Defense team provides mission critical capabilities to warfighters.

What you'll do

  • Partner directly with our business-line Program Managers, Engineering: Leaders, Strategic Growth personnel, and others to lead various strategic initiatives and special projects to establish scalable operations and forward progress across a portfolio of initiatives as we scale the Air Defense business line.

  • Workforce Planning: Own the staffing infrastructure for Air Defense — managing headcount planning, recruiting coordination with Talent Acquisition, demand/supply forecasting, and charge code governance. Build tooling and processes that enable efficient resource allocation as the organization scales.

  • Facilities Operations: Manage Air Defense’s facility strategy and execution, including 5+ US facilities and an rapidly expanding international footprint. This work will include neighborhood management, space planning, and seating coordination for organizational growth.

  • Define and evolve the Confluence information architecture for Air Defense,: driving adoption and content hygiene across stakeholders.

  • You will be handed ambiguous, messy problems with little prescription on how: to solve them. These could be across production, finance, growth strategy, hiring, real estate & facilities, or a multitude of other business needs. If this ambiguity & breadth does not excite you, this is not the role for you.

  • You will often act as the connective tissue: supporting design, development, and implementation of new processes, strategy, projects, and execution plans — across complex initiatives with multiple stakeholders and often ‘gray area’ scope.

What they're looking for

  • MBA or similar advanced degree.
  • Experience with Palantir Foundry, Looker/Tableau, or similar analytics platforms.
  • Experience administering or architecting Confluence (or similar knowledge management tools) at scale.
