Reporting to the executive leadership team, you will shape the multi-year business development strategy, leverage ACET’s existing contract vehicles, and expand our positioning in core capabilities: aviation maintenance/modifications, C5ISR systems integration, technical program management, and advanced IT/Cyber solutions.
Responsibilities:
- Identify, qualify, and win high-value federal defense opportunities, actively managing the lifecycle from early market intelligence through capture strategy to final proposal submission.

- Collaborate closely with ACET’s technical divisions to align corporate offerings in hardware/software system engineering, uncrewed systems, and logistics with the changing mission requirements of the modern warfighter.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, Aviation Management, or a related field.
- 10+ years of successful government contracting business development and capture management experience, with a demonstrable win record in the defense or intelligence space.
- Deep familiarity with federal procurement processes, Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), and explicit, pre-existing relationships within NAVAIR or broader DoD entities.
- Broad working knowledge of C5ISR electronics integration, military aviation mod/retrofit programs, or technical IT infrastructure support.
- Active DoD Secret clearance is required; an active Top Secret/SCI is highly preferred.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience expanding a Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) or navigating transitioning out of small business size standards.
- Background or certification in formal capture methodologies (e.g., Shipley).
- Active engagement within industry groups like NDIA, AFCEA, or AAAA.
