  • Provide feedback from the field into product management about feature priorities, use-cases, competitive threats and mission-specific requirements.

    • Enablement & Collateral

  • Develop and oversee sales enablement materials specific to the federal government market : agency use-cases, procurement / contracting cheat sheets, talking points around compliance, security, and competitive battlecards.
  • Train and support sales, partner teams on positioning the offering for federal buyers.

    • Procurement & Compliance Navigation

  • Possess a deep understanding of federal procurement mechanisms (FAR / DFARS, GSA, IDIQs, OTAs, BPAs), funding cycles, acquisition influences and how SaaS transactions are managed in the federal government market.
  • Ensure all deals align with compliance standards, and work with legal, contracts, and operations to clear government-specific constraints.

    • Metrics, Forecasting & Reporting

  • Define and track key performance indicators (KPIs) for federal SaaS sales : pipeline, bookings, win rate, deal size, average contract length, renewal rate, customer satisfaction / mission impact.
  • Forecast revenue for the federal segment, monitor deal progression through stages, and provide regular reporting to leadership.

    • Partner / Channel Development

  • Build and manage relationships with federal-focused partners, system integrators, reseller networks and government marketplaces (e.g., Carahsoft, AWS Marketplace, GSA e-commerce, DoD Tradewinds).
  • Define partner motions, enable partner sales teams, and co-sell / co-deliver when needed.

    • Customer Success & Expansion

  • Post-sale, work with customer success and operations to ensure strong adoption, renewal and expansion in the federal account base. Influence product adoption, upsell and lifecycle management.

    • Thought Leadership & Mission Alignment

  • Expertise in SaaS business models (subscription, multi-year contracts, renewals, expansions), metrics (ARR, churn, pipeline conversion), and go-to-market strategy.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills with ability to craft messaging for non-technical federal buyers, present to executive audiences, develop collateral and train sales teams.
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration skills working with product, marketing, sales, legal / contracts and operations.
