Job description
Who we are
Neros is a defense technology company rebuilding America’s drone industrial base. We design and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are tested in combat, iterated at startup speed, and built at massive scale. Our team culture is fast, hands-on, and obsessed with closing the gap between design and deployment.
As drones transform the character of warfare, Neros is delivering the systems the West needs to compete on the modern battlefield and deter the adversaries of democracy. We’re hiring engineers, operators, and builders who want to move fast, take on extreme ownership, and get capability into the hands of warfighters in months, not years.
What you will be doing
Build and manage relationships with US Marine Corps units to accelerate drone and Interceptor adoption on the modern battlefield. You'll own the full sales cycle from initial contact through contract execution and thus coordinate complex field demonstrations, navigate DoD procurement processes, and work cross-functionally with engineering, operations, and finance to deliver capability at speed.
You should have the following
5+ years in defense business development, program management, or military operations
Active TS/SCI clearance or ability to obtain one
Direct experience working with USMC units, programs, or operations
Strong technical fluency with unmanned systems or defense hardware
Willingness to travel as needed to military bases and field locations
Exceptional communication skills with military and civilian stakeholders
Comfort working across sales, product, operations, and leadership teams
High ownership, strong judgment, and a mission-first mindset
Nice to have
Prior USMC service
Proven track record closing DoD contracts ($500K+)
Experience with DoD procurement vehicles
Experience with SOCOM or Marine Special Operations
Relationships within USMC acquisition or requirements community
FAA Part 107 remote pilot certificate
Experience running field demonstrations or training events
Knowledge of spectrum management and DoD frequency coordination
US Salary Range
$110,500 - $154,500 USD
The salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only. Actual salary may vary based on (but not limited to) work experience, education and/or training, critical skills, and/or business considerations. Highly competitive equity grants are considered part of Neros' total compensation package.
We’re an equal opportunity employer. We welcome all applicants without attention to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran or disability status.
