What Success Looks Like Establish credibility and trusted relationships across Army customer stakeholders within the first 90 days. • Drive measurable improvements in customer engagement, adoption, and mission success outcomes. • Improve visibility into operational requirements, customer priorities, and deployment readiness. • Identify and influence expansion opportunities across Army programs and operational environments. • Contribute to scalable deployment and customer success processes as Shift5 continues to grow across defense markets. What We’re Looking For • Experience in customer engagement, client relationship management, product management, mission operations, or related roles within defense or government environments. • Deep understanding of the defense sector and operational military environments. • Strong communication, interpersonal, and operational problem-solving skills. • Ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including senior military leadership. • Demonstrated strategic thinking, proactive ownership, and customer-focused mindset. • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Business, Marketing, or related field, or equivalent operational experience. • Eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. TS/SCI security clearance. • Prior military experience or direct experience supporting Army programs strongly preferred. • Experience supporting deployments, demonstrations, mission operations, or operational technology environments preferred.
