Head of Growth and Corporate Strategy at Stratom — Washington, DC
Full job description
Stratom, Inc. is a mission-driven engineering company building autonomous and uncrewed off-road vehicles and related robotic systems. Our systems operate in demanding real-world environments, where performance, reliability, and engineering discipline are essential. Integrating advanced autonomy with rugged industrial hardware for austere conditions. Our work spans the full lifecycle of complex systems, from early concept and prototyping through fielded deployment. With multiple working prototypes in hand, we are transitioning these platforms into production.
What You’ll Get to Do:
This is the inflection point and our opportunity. This role exists to turn that momentum into sustained, scalable growth. You will work directly with the CEO and company leadership to identify and pursue Stratom's highest-value opportunities, build the customer relationships that generate them, and see pursuits through from concept to contract. Success in this role means you've mapped the growth landscape, established credibility with key customers and partners, and closed or are actively executing new business within your first year. You won't have a large BD machine behind you; you'll be building it. The ideal candidate has done this before at a company that couldn't afford to wait for opportunity to come to them. Therefore, we are actively searching for a driven Head of Growth professional to drive substantial growth and play a strategic role in delivering capable systems to federal and military customers at scale
Location Preference: This position is ideally based in the National Capital Region (Washington, D.C./DMV) or the Detroit metropolitan area to support collaboration with key customers and strategic partners. Exceptional candidates located in other U.S. regions may be considered based on business needs and leadership approval.
