role, you won't just track data; you will own the narrative of the global drone and counter-drone (cUAS) landscape. You
will be the single point technical, operational, and commercial developments, translating complex market noise into
clear picture, insights and recommendations that drive will contribute and influence our Product and Sales strategies.

Market Mastery & Monitoring: Maintain real-time, comprehensive expertise in the drone and cUAS domains.
Monitor global news, emerging technologies, operational shifts, and regulatory changes across multiple
verticals.

Strategic Analysis: Go beyond data collection to provide "deep-dive" analysis. Synthesize information on
competitors (direct and indirect), market trends, and regional business climates to identify threats and
opportunities.

Business Enablement: Act as a strategic partner to the Product Management, Sales, and Marketing teams. Your
insights will directly influence the product roadmap, sales pitches, and go-to-market strategies.

Tooling & Intelligence Infrastructure: Manage and optimize information-gathering tools. Focus on filtering
signal from noise to generate high-quality, actionable intelligence reports for executive leadership.

company (tech that serves both commercial and military markets). You must understand the difference between
a consumer drone and a military-grade drone/loitering munition.

Education: Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Economics, Engineering, or International Relations. An
MBA or relevant Master’s degree is an advantage.

Competitive Analysis: Experience building SWOT analyses, battle cards, and competitive landscape maps.

Technological Fluency: A strong technical aptitude. You don't need to be an engineer, but you must be able to
understand technical specs (e.g., RF sensors, radar systems, kinetic vs. non-kinetic mitigation, cyber basics) and
translate them into value propositions.

Financial Forensic: Analyze competitor 10-Ks (where applicable), funding rounds, and burn rates to identify
who is" buying growth" versus who is truly efficient. Analyze financial data to understand the weaknesses,
focus, and targets

Win/Loss: Lead an objective, high-touch Win/Loss program. Analyze our "lost" to identify if we lost on

Self-Starter: The ability to work independently with minimal supervision, setting your own research agenda
based on company goals and specific tasks.

Deep Domain Expertise: You have to demonstrate passion for and profound understanding of the uncrewed
aerial systems (UAS) and counter-UAS ecosystem. You will have to develop the intelligent tools and to grab,
store and analyze valuable data, knowledge and reports.

Analytical Storytelling: You will take raw data and turn it into a compelling business case or strategic
recommendation.

Proactive Curiosity: You don’t wait for news to find you; you actively hunt for the "next big thing" in defense
and airspace security.

Commercial Acumen: You understand how technical shifts impact business bottom-lines and can speak the
language of both engineers and sales leaders.
