This role owns the Intel pipeline and bookings target across Shield AI’s autonomy software and unmanned systems portfolio. You will drive opportunities from initial engagement through contract award, partnering with Intel/Space Force stakeholders and internal teams to convert operational needs into funded procurement. This is a quota-carrying role with significant upside tied directly to Intel/Space Force revenue growth.
The ideal candidate is a high energy seller who thrives in complex defense sales environments and is motivated by building pipeline, advancing opportunities, and closing deals that deliver real operational capability.
This role partners closely with Shield AI’s growth team which includes former senior military leaders who provide strategic insight, acquisition expertise, and access across the Intel/Space Force ecosystem.

- Identify, shape, and pursue new opportunities across Intel/Space Force program offices, operational units, and modernization initiatives.
- Build and maintain a qualified pipeline of Intel/Space Force opportunities from early engagement through contract award.
- Own the full sales cycle from initial engagement through contract award with accountability for closing revenue and achieving Intel quota targets.
- Work directly with Intel stakeholders to translate operational challenges into funded procurement opportunities that deploy Shield AI capabilities into the field.
- Operate with urgency to advance opportunities and accelerate the transition of Shield AI capabilities from evaluation to program of record.
- Develop trusted relationships with Intel program managers, operational leaders, and acquisition stakeholders.
- Partner with Shield AI growth advisors who provide Intel domain expertise, acquisition insight, and senior level access.
- Coordinate internal teams including engineering, product, program management, and capture resources to support opportunity execution.
- Lead opportunity strategy and deal progression including shaping customer requirements, developing capture plans, and supporting proposal efforts.
- Maintain accurate pipeline forecasting and revenue projections.
- Drive adoption of fielded capabilities that deliver immediate operational value to Intel customers.
