Our mission is to be the technology backbone for strategic competition against peer adversaries. These missions – including intelligence, information operations, special activities, and perception management – are happening today and their success or failure will determine if we go to war tomorrow.

We've been on the front lines of these missions since 2019, and have grown to support a wide range of missions across all US service branches, multiple combatant commands, partner nations, and interagency stakeholders. We deploy both hardware and software products to support people on the front lines that span collection, planning / assessments, and effects.

We've grown from $3M in run-rate revenue in 2021 to $80M in run-rate revenue today. We've been profitable since 2022 and have raised $91M in venture capital funding through Series B. We're valued at $1.5B as of 2025.

About The Role

This role will be the 0-to-1 owner for high ops priorities and other special projects for the executive leadership team. It will be shaped depending on your skillset. Over the last few years, we’ve experienced a lot of growth, >25xing our revenue and ~5xing our customer base. You will be critical to building the foundation needed to support this growth.

What You'll Do

Build our security ops function (e.g., SCIF facilities)
Enable new business “bets” and corporate development opportunities by conducting hypothesis-driven research, analysis, and expert interview
Own a set of executive-driven initiatives, including culture and communications projects, Board and investor engagement, and strategic recruiting projects

What We Look For

What We Offer

The salary range for this position is $150,000 - $170,000 cash + equity + 401K match. Within the range, individual pay is determined by experience, relevant education, and/or training.

On equity, our valuation has tripled from ~$500M in 2022 to $1.5B in October 2024; with our defense prime aspirations, we hope to 15x this. We also recently did our first employee secondary around for people at Vannevar >3 years so they had the option to liquidate some of their equity, and hope to facilitate this every 1-2 years.
