Head of Federal Sales

WireScreen is a fast-growing Series A startup bringing clarity to one of the world's most complex business landscapes. We're building the go-to intelligence platform for navigating global supply chains and China-related risk-revealing the networks, relationships, and financial ties behind companies so our customers can see connections, remove obstacles, and make confident decisions.

Backed by Sequoia Capital and Harpoon Ventures, our team includes a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and senior engineers from Google, Twitter, and Oracle. We launched just three years ago and already have strong traction with top-tier government customers-and we're just getting started. If you're excited to make global systems more transparent and secure, now's the perfect time to join us.

Check out this blog from our CEO on how WireScreen traced DeepSeek's origins back to 2023-well before it went mainstream in 2025.
