Position Summary

The Enterprise Software Sales Director – DoD is a senior, quota-carrying sales role responsible for closing multi-year enterprise software agreements across U.S. Department of Defense organizations, with a current focus on the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, and U.S. Navy.

This role requires a proven enterprise sales professional with a military background who can navigate complex government acquisition environments, engage senior military and civilian leaders, and close high-value Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) software contracts. This is a pure enterprise sales role, not a business development or capture-only position.

Market Intelligence & Internal Collaboration

• Monitor DoD modernization initiatives, readiness priorities, and competitive dynamics.

What Success Looks Like (12–18 Months)

• A qualified enterprise pipeline across priority DoD accounts.

• Multiple closed multi-year software contracts.

• Recognition of 4C as a trusted readiness and decision-support platform within key DoD organizations.

• Strong understanding of SaaS/COTS platforms and enterprise technology sales.

• Established relationships or network within DoD or defense ecosystem.

• Executive-level presentation, negotiation, and proposal development capabilities.

• U.S. Citizenship required; ability to obtain a security clearance preferred.

Preferred Qualifications

• Former senior military officer or senior training/readiness leader.

• Experience selling to government, defense contractors, or federal agencies.

• Familiarity with readiness reporting systems, simulation tools, or C5ISR environments.

• Experience with Shipley capture processes and proposal management.

• CRM proficiency (Salesforce or equivalent).

• Active security clearance (Secret or higher).

What We Offer

• Direct ownership of strategic DoD enterprise accounts and revenue targets.

• High visibility with global leadership and product strategy teams.
