We are seeking a high-impact Senior Account Executive to spearhead revenue growth within the U.S. SATCOM market. This role targets both government and commercial sectors, managing the full sales lifecycle for high-performance RF hardware. As the primary customer interface, you will navigate complex technical environments to secure "design-ins" for LEO/MEO/GEO spacecraft and ground terminals.


Key Responsibilities

  • Business Development (The Hunt): Proactively identify and close new opportunities in the SATCOM payload and ground station markets.

  • Channel Management: Collaborate with U.S. Sales Representative firms through active customer engagement and pipeline reviews to scale bookings.

  • Strategic Account Growth (The Farm): Develop long-term account plans for existing customers, ensuring our mmWave and RF systems are the preferred solution for future programs.

  • Technical Consultation: Partner with internal engineering and product teams to deliver tailored hardware solutions (filters, phased arrays, multiplexers) that meet strict performance metrics.

  • Contract & Revenue Management: Lead high-stakes negotiations on pricing and terms; maintain rigorous CRM data and sales forecasting to drive predictable growth.


Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Industry Expertise: Proven success in RF/Microwave sales, specifically within SATCOM payload hardware (filters, diplexers, waveguide components, or mmWave assemblies).

  • Technical Proficiency: Strong grasp of RF performance trade-offs, including insertion loss, isolation, and thermal/packaging constraints for space and airborne environments.

  • The 60/40 Mindset: An entrepreneurial "self-starter" who thrives on hunting new programs while possessing the patience to navigate long-cycle commercial qualifications.

  • Collaboration: A team player capable of bridging the gap between customer requirements and internal manufacturing/engineering capabilities.

  • Travel: Ability to travel 30–50% domestically to engage with customers and Rep firms.
