About Epirus

Epirus is a high-growth technology company dedicated to overcoming the asymmetric challenges inherent to the future of national security. Epirus' flagship product, Leonidas, is a software-defined system built using intelligent power management techniques that allow power-hungry systems to do more with less.

Job Summary : The Vice President, Growth will drive Epirus’ expansion from $50M to over $1B in annual revenue, building and leading a world-class global sales organization that spans defense and commercial government markets. Reporting to the SVP of Growth & Government Affairs and working closely with the CEO, CFO, and senior leadership, this executive will align strategy and execution across product sales, defense contracting, and commercial government channels. This is a highly visible, results-driven role that demands both strategic vision and operational precision. The ideal candidate will translate congressional budget appropriations into actionable revenue streams, position Epirus as a dominant player in the emerging “Neo Prime” ecosystem, and lead growth in the rapidly evolving counter-drone and directed energy markets.

Responsibilities :

  • Revenue Growth & Strategy

Develop and execute a multi-year growth strategy to scale revenue from $50M to $1B+, with a balanced portfolio across defense and commercial government sales.

  • Systematically translate congressional appropriations and defense budget allocations into targeted sales opportunities.
  • Position Epirus as a leader in the Neo Prime space and leverage emerging DoD procurement reforms to maximize market share.
  • Leadership & Team Building
  • Lead, grow, and mentor a high-performance global sales organization, including direct reports, regional leads, consultants, resellers, and channel partners.

  • Build cross-functional alignment with Finance, Programs, Engineering, and Operations to ensure a single, unified operating picture for the company.
  • Serve as a key coordination layer between strategic planning and day-to-day tactical execution.
  • Market Development
  • Deepen Epirus’ presence in SHORAD mission areas and with key customers including the Army’s PEO Missiles and Space in Huntsville.

  • Expand domestic and international market share in drone and counter-drone solutions.
  • Maintain deep customer intimacy with U.S. DoD stakeholders, allied defense ministries, and commercial government buyers.
  • Partnerships, M&A, and Ecosystem Engagement
  • Identify and manage strategic partnerships, including OEMs, primes, integrators, and emerging tech firms.

  • Support mergers, acquisitions, and strategic investments to accelerate growth.
  • Drive competitive positioning in the evolving directed energy market by clearly articulating Leonidas’ capabilities and limitations.
  • Customer & Stakeholder Engagement
  • Act as a senior executive interface with customers, congressional stakeholders, and industry partners.

  • Represent Epirus at key trade shows, industry events, and high-level meetings with U.S. and allied defense leadership.
  • Basic Qualifications :

  • Proven track record leading growth for both product companies and defense contracting sales organizations.
  • 15+ years of progressive sales leadership experience, with significant time in U.S. DoD and commercial government markets.
  • Deep familiarity with U.S. Army acquisition processes, SHORAD mission sets, PEO Missiles and Space (Huntsville), and drone / counter-drone solutions.
  • Strong understanding of directed energy systems—able to clearly communicate what weaponized HPM is and is not.
  • Demonstrated ability to convert congressional budget lines into targeted sales campaigns and measurable revenue.
  • Experience operating in a hyper-growth environment and scaling a company toward $1B+ revenue.
  • Familiarity with the emerging Neo Prime ecosystem and new DoD procurement models under the current administration.
  • History of managing complex partner ecosystems, including resellers, consultants, and strategic alliances.
  • Strong business acumen with M&A exposure.
  • Exceptional leadership, communication, and strategic thinking skills.
  • Willingness and ability to travel extensively ~50% if based in DC; ~75% if outside of DC
  • For the state of California only, the range of starting pay for this role is : $257,800 - $346,400

    For Washington D.C. only, the range of starting pay for this role is : $268,200 - $322,800

    ITAR REQUIREMENTS :

  • To conform to U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) you must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State. Learn more about the ITAR here.
  • At Epirus, you’ll work with technical peers and great people—and get first crack at some of the defining technology challenges of our time. Here, “impossible” is just a challenge. We're a diverse, fast-growing team of change-makers fueling the future of energy with revolutionary solutions. Join us and rewrite the rules.

    As required by the Equal Pay Transparency Act, Epirus provides a reasonable range of minimum compensation for roles that may be hired. Actual compensation is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, and specific office location.
