Company info

  • Array Labs is building space-based sensing systems for missions that require timely, reliable understanding of the physical world. Government and commercial customers increasingly need sensing capabilities that can operate across wide areas, through clouds, day and night, and at the speed required for real-world decisions. Many of these capabilities have historically depended on large, expensive, and slow-moving programs. Array is building a different path. We design and build satellites, radar payloads, sensing architectures, and software solutions end-to-end. Our systems are designed to support mission-critical applications including moving target indication, wide-area monitoring, 3D geospatial intelligence, infrastructure resilience, disaster response, and other operational sensing needs. Array's goal is to make it dramatically easier to understand what is happening across the physical world - what changed, what moved, and what requires action - so that government and commercial organizations can act with greater speed, confidence, and precision. About the Job Array is building space-based sensing systems for missions where timely, reliable information is critical. As government customers seek faster and more cost-effective ways to field advanced capabilities, Array is focused on transitioning new technology into funded programs, prototype efforts, and operational deployments. We are looking for a Government Capture and Proposal Manager to help make that happen. In this role, you will help convert government interest, customer needs, and Array's technical capabilities into clear, compelling, and executable pursuits. You will work across Array's business, technical, and program teams to shape opportunities, develop proposals, organize technical and cost volumes, and present Array's capabilities clearly and credibly to government customers. This is a hands-on role with significant ownership. You will not inherit a large capture organization
  • you will help build the operating system for how Array pursues and wins government work, from pursuit plans and proposal rhythms to compliance discipline, technical storytelling, and award handoffs. The right person will be excited to operate close to the technology, close to the customer, and close to the mechanics of how government opportunities become real programs. As Array grows, this role will help turn strong technical ideas into funded programs that deliver real capability to mission users.
