Federal Operations Associate

ABOUT GOVSIGNALS FEDERAL

The people who buy for the U.S. government spend most of their time buried in paperwork, disconnected systems, and administrative overhead. Contracting officers and program managers have some of the most consequential jobs in the federal government, but their tools force them to be paper-pushers instead of decision-makers. We are changing that.

GovSignals is the acquisition AI platform that is fundamentally transforming these roles from administrative and process-driven to action-oriented, delivery-focused, and outcome-driven. We are deployed inside the Department of War and trusted by over 1,000 enterprise users including some of the largest defense companies in the world. We make government contracting 85% faster. Work that used to take months gets done in hours.

The Department of War is in the middle of the largest acquisition reorganization in a generation. Hundreds of billions of dollars in activity is being restructured, and there is no legacy system in the way. This is a greenfield moment, and GovSignals is the platform being built at the center of it.

ABOUT THE ROLE

The Federal Operations Associate works directly with the CEO and GovSignals Federal Team to build and run the go-to-market engine for GovSignals. Your primary focus is supporting our federal business development team: researching opportunities, preparing materials that help our BD representatives win, coordinating conference and event strategy, supporting proposals, and keeping the operational rhythm tight across the team.

This is not a back-office role. You will produce deliverables that directly influence pipeline decisions and revenue. You will learn how federal procurement works, how enterprise sales cycles move, and how a startup turns strategy into closed deals. You are building this function from scratch alongside the founding team.
