Job description

iRocket (Innovative Rocket Technologies Inc.) is developing fully reusable, fully autonomous small launch vehicles to enable affordable and sustainable access to space. As we expand our programs and partnerships, we are seeking a Proposal Manager / Technical Writer to lead the development of compelling, compliant, and high-quality proposals for commercial and government opportunities.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives at the intersection of engineering, business strategy, and storytelling — helping translate complex technical work into winning proposals.

The Role :

  • Lead the preparation, coordination, and submission of proposals for NASA, DoD, and commercial contracts
  • Work closely with engineering, business development, and leadership teams to develop clear, persuasive technical narratives
  • Manage proposal schedules, compliance matrices, and submission requirements
  • Review solicitations (RFIs, RFPs, BAAs) and identify key requirements and evaluation criteria
  • Coordinate input from SMEs and technical contributors to ensure consistency and alignment
  • Maintain a proposal content library and ensure brand and message consistency
  • Support grant applications, white papers, and internal review processes
  • Track proposal metrics and develop process improvements for future submissions

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Communications, Business, or related field
  • 3–6 years of experience in proposal writing or management (aerospace, defense, or technology preferred)
  • Strong writing, editing, and organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail
  • Understanding of federal acquisition and funding mechanisms (NASA, DoD, SBIR / STTR, etc.)
  • Ability to manage multiple deadlines and coordinate cross-functional input
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite and Adobe tools; experience with proposal management platforms a plus
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-accountability environment
  • Benefits

  • Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
  • Retirement Plan (401k, IRA)
  • Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D)
  • Paid Time Off (Vacation, Sick & Public Holidays)
  • Family Leave (Maternity, Paternity)
  • Short Term & Long Term Disability
  • Wellness Resources
