Federal Business Development Director Department of Defense and National Security Markets

Qwaltec is in the business of ensuring mission control, ground segment, launch, and spacecraft operations are safe, efficient, and cost effective. We are an established women-owned small business making a difference with our commitment to the mission, our customers, and our team members. Qwaltec provides a great working environment for self-starters looking to learn, innovate, and grow with the company. Our core values of integrity, respect, excellence, teamwork, and agility guide our business practice.

Qwaltec has an immediate opening for a full-time Business Development Director to lead growth across Department of Defense and national security markets, with particular emphasis on space-related missions. The ideal candidate brings established DoD customer knowledge, relationships, and capture experience. Candidates whose backgrounds also include NASA or other civil space agencies are encouraged to apply. This leader will shape capture strategy, expand customer and industry relationships, and build a disciplined, repeatable growth engine for a mission-focused small business.

We are looking for someone who is:

• An accomplished federal business development and capture leader with demonstrated success pursuing DoD opportunities; experience in defense space or national security space is especially valuable.

• Experienced in translating customer missions and acquisition priorities into qualified opportunities, effective capture plans, strong teaming strategies, and competitive proposals.

• Able to strengthen Qwaltec’s business development systems, CRM discipline, pipeline reporting, capture processes, and executive-level opportunity reviews.

The Business Development Director will contribute immediately to opportunity identification, customer engagement, capture planning, teaming, and proposal positioning across DoD organizations, including the U.S. Space Force, U.S. Air Force, Space Systems Command, and other defense and national security customers. Experience and relationships within NASA or other civil space agencies are also welcome when paired with the ability to lead and grow a DoD-focused pipeline.
