* Interpret customer requirements, communicating these needs to the development team to influence product roadmaps.
* Manage the business development process with specific attention to ARSOF opportunity identification, screening, forecasting, and capture across strategic and tactical levels.
* Participate in internal product testing and technical experiments (TEs) to ensure features are optimized for Airborne environments and ruggedized SOF use cases.
* Support trade shows, technical experiments, industry days, and customer engagements by showcasing AT's advantages in the tactical communications space.
* Engage key ARSOF-aligned organizations and partners including SOCPAC, DTRA-Germany, Capability Development and Innovation (CD&I, formerly IWTSD), and others as relevant to the portfolio.

* Exceptional interpersonal skills with the ability to navigate the unique culture of the Special Operations community-from 4-star headquarters to tactical ODA teams.
* Must be technically savvy with the ability to bridge the gap between company technical capabilities and complex operator requirements.
