Vannevar Labs supports people on the front lines by building tools that deter and de-escalate conflict with America's adversaries. We build software and hardware for this mission that enable our customers to maintain maritime vigilance, disrupt misinformation, and collect non-traditional intelligence. In strategic competition, the intelligence and actions that shape conflict occur well before war itself. We build tools to win this fight now.
This mission has become urgent. The US and our allies are fighting a war of deterrence with woefully outdated technology. As a team, we believe in public service and that our democracy and government improve only if we put serious, collective effort into improving them, including the technology our government uses.
Since our founding in 2019, we have grown to support a wide range of missions and capabilities across all U.S. service branches, multiple combatant commands, partner nations, and the intelligence community. We have been profitable since 2021, and are backed by investors including General Catalyst, DFJ Growth, Point72, Costanoa, and Felicis.
We are looking for a Government Relations Manager to work directly with our VP of Public Policy and Strategy to advance Vannevar’s public affairs objectives, where you can have an outsized impact and drive significant growth at a national security startup. You would partner with our VP on developing legislative strategies that result in policy, authorities, and multi-year program funding outcomes, and lead engagements with key stakeholders on Capitol Hill. You would also work closely with our Mission team (strategy, success, and business development) to understand our relationships with program offices and technology deployment goals, and support by analyzing budget justification books, congressional testimony and other relevant government documents to understand our customer’s requirements and resources to shape go-to-market strategies.
The salary range for this position is $150,000-$190,000 + equity + 401K match. Within the range, individual pay is determined by experience, relevant education, and/or training.
