BMNT runs the human engine, framing the right problems, recruiting and preparing companies, and accelerating the impact. Soon, we may be managing a second consortium built on the same model for the maritime domain: undersea and seabed systems, littoral and expeditionary operations, mine countermeasures, and the autonomous and robotic systems. We need someone to run the day to day work.\nYou will be the person that a Navy program office calls when they have a problem and the reason a maritime robotics founder decides consortium membership was the best decision they made all year. You will be BMNT's first maritime domain lead.\nWhat you will actually do\nOwn the demand engine. Build and keep the relationships with the Navy program offices, labs, and operating units where maritime problems are born. Take them from \"we have this problem,\" to a problem statement the whole consortium competes on. \nOwn member value. Companies stay in the consortium because it's worth their time through rapid onboarding and member resources that you will help execute.\nTranslate in both directions. Turn operator and engineer language into problem statements that an entrepreneur can act on, and keep the government side confident that what they said was not lost in translation. \nFilter honestly. You will hear lots of problems. The job is finding the right ones: real users, real pain, someone with authority who cares, and the funding for prototyping.\nRun point on the moments that matter. Industry days, curation sessions, white paper workshops, demo events, and the follow-through afterward. \nWho thrives in this seat\nYou have lived in the maritime domain: undersea or surface unmanned systems, mine warfare, EOD or diving, expeditionary operations, naval test and evaluation, or industry. When you walk into a Navy warfare center, people assume you belong there.\nYou have worked government acquisition in the form of OTAs, consortia, SBIR, accelerators, or federal business development where your job was earning a program manager's trust.\nYou can brief a Navy leader in the morning and coach a seed-stage founder in the afternoon, and you genuinely like both conversations.\nYou do only 25 to 40 percent of the talking in a discovery conversation and treat what you learn as the product of your effort.\nYou are comfortable with autonomy and ambiguity, and you ask for help early and loudly when it affects the mission. \nClearance: active Secret preferred; you must be eligible for TS/SCI. U.S. citizenship required.\nWhy BMNT\nWe are the 40-person Silicon Valley company that has spent a decade proving commercial innovation methods work in national security. Our methods trace to the Army's Rapid Equipping Force, which our founder led; we run the Hacking for Defense program across 67 universities; and our pipelines have moved real technology, including ocean sensors, photonic navigation, and edge AI, into operational hands. We just helped end the consortium-fee model that taxed the defense industrial base for two decades, and we hope to bring that model to the water. We’re a small company with no layers, a national mission, and your fingerprints can be on all of it.\nThe details\nIn office or hybrid with monthly travel, especially wherever the government problem owners are. Compensation is between $105,000 to $165,000 and determined by location, level, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. \nBMNT is a certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and an equal opportunity employer.\nIf you are a self-starter with an obsession for outcomes, not activities and a history of achievements, and enjoy working on projects with collaborative and creative teams, this could be the right role for you!\n#innovation","description_format":"text","description_chars":3960,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":true,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Homeland Security","Management Consulting"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-26T21:56:03Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":5,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-01T06:10:25Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":165000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/bmnt-project-lead-maritime-consortium","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/bmnt-project-lead-maritime-consortium.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-02T00:10:07Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":301,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-03T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":670446},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=670446"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fbmnt-project-lead-maritime-consortium"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fbmnt-project-lead-maritime-consortium"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fbmnt-project-lead-maritime-consortium"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/bmnt-project-lead-maritime-consortium\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fbmnt-project-lead-maritime-consortium"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3296152}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"bmnt.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3296152},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
