Acquisition Transformation Lead

Acquisition Transformation Lead

The defense market is surging, but the data that drives it hasn't kept up. Companies, government, and investors are forced to perform heavily manual processes and piece together hundreds of disparate sources to make decisions. Obviant is building a data source of truth and AI tools for defense acquisition to solve this. We fuse information from thousands of sources structured + unstructured to provide a cohesive picture of budget, programs, the organizations running them, and much more. Whether it's a company navigating GTM or a program manager developing capabilities, we're providing all sides with the intelligence they need to execute effectively.

We're growing fast and backed by top funds and DoD / national security veterans.
