About Us
At Harmattan AI, we are a next-generation defense prime building autonomous and scalable defense systems. Driven by rigorous engineering developments of new defense products based on recent robotics and AI developments, we are on a steep growth trajectory. If you are interested in a career in a highly technical environment, thrive on pushing boundaries, and want to achieve ambitious goals, we would love to hear from you.
About the Role
We are seeking an experienced and driven U.S. Army Business Developer to lead our efforts within the Army ecosystem and help convert our growing traction into long-term programs.
With nearly $1 billion allocated to UAS/C-UAS initiatives and new DoD directives enabling tactical-level purchasing, the Army is entering a new era of rapid procurement and innovation. This role is critical to positioning Harmattan AI as a trusted partner in that transformation.
You will be responsible for identifying and capturing opportunities, managing senior relationships across Army PEOs, PMs, and units, and leading demonstrations of Harmattan AI’s autonomous defense solutions. This is a hands-on, high-impact position for someone ready to shape the next generation of Army capabilities.
Responsibilities

Develop and execute tailored go-to-market strategies to achieve measurable growth in revenue and market share.
Maintain a robust opportunity pipeline using market insights, budget tracking, and competitor analysis.
Convert early traction and RFI activity into funded wins and long-term programs.
2. Sales & Client Engagement
Implement a comprehensive sales strategy aligned with the company’s Army objectives.
Build and maintain relationships with acquisition offices, primes, and program managers.
Deliver compelling product demonstrations and presentations showcasing Harmattan AI’s technologies and mission impact.
Provide structured reports and forecasts to the leadership team on Army market activity, wins, and risks.
3. Stakeholder & Government Relations
Cultivate relationships with operators, decision-makers, and senior Army officials.
Represent Harmattan AI at key Army and defense industry events, trade shows, and government meetings.
Coordinate with internal teams (R&D, Product, Program Management) to ensure operational alignment and delivery readiness.
Candidate Requirements
Experience: 3+ years in business development or defense sales within the U.S. market.
Background: Prior experience working with or selling to the U.S. Army or DoD ecosystem.
Technical Understanding: Familiarity with defense technologies such as UAS, C-UAS, autonomy, or advanced sensors.
Sales Skills: Proven ability to navigate complex procurement environments and close multi-stakeholder deals.
Strategic Acumen: Strong understanding of Army procurement processes, OTA/IDIQ pathways, and DoD acquisition cycles.
Communication: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills; able to engage senior military and industry stakeholders with clarity and credibility.
