8–12+ years in defense business development or capture, with a demonstrated track record of won pursuits with local actors.
Deep, active network within the region defense ecosystem and relevant offices.
Strong working knowledge of regional defense procurement and decision-making dynamics.
Capture methodology competence: win strategy, win-theme development, gate reviews, competitive positioning, price-to-win modelling, teaming negotiation.
Compliance discipline: full adherence to our anti-corruption and export-control rules is a hard requirement — not a soft expectation.
Track record matters more than degree; technical, defense/security studies, or business backgrounds are all viable.
French and Arabic essential; working English required.
Familiarity with counter-UAS, UAS, ISR, or C2 systems is a strong plus.
Relevant military or [Client/Government Authority] background is a strong asset for credibility and access.
About Us
Harmattan AI is a next-generation defense prime building autonomous and scalable defense systems. Following the close of a $200M Series B, valuing the company at $1.4 billion, we are expanding our teams and capabilities to deliver mission-critical systems to allied forces.
Our work is guided by clear values: building technologies with real-world impact, pursuing excellence in everything we do, setting ambitious goals, and taking on the hardest technical challenges. We operate in a demanding environment where rigor, ownership, and execution are expected.
About the Role
As Capture Manager you own pursuit strategy and execution across our regional opportunity set — from customer and requirement shaping through to bid-ready state. You drive win strategy, competitive positioning, teaming with industrial partners, and price-to-win development, then hand off to the tender and proposal function.
You work in close coordination with the regional relationship owner.
Capture is driven end-to-end across both region and HQ: the region owns customer relationships and in-country access; HQ owns the capture process, gate reviews, and price-to-win sign-off; you drive the pursuit across both and carry the compliance mandate within HQ rules.
Responsibilities
•
Capture Ownership: Own capture plans, gate and milestone reviews, and win-theme development across the region pursuit set. Shipley-informed methodology, lean execution per our process.
•
Customer & Requirement Shaping: Build and maintain the customer picture; shape requirements and engagement ahead of formal procurement.
•
Win Strategy & Competitive Positioning: Develop and iterate win strategy, win themes, and competitive positioning in coordination with HQ.
•
Price-to-Win: Develop price-to-win models in coordination with HQ; ensure pricing strategy is grounded in competitive and customer intelligence.
•
Teaming & Local Partners: Manage teaming strategy and local industrial partner relationships, strictly within the compliance agreement and export-control rules.
•
Relationship Continuity: Sustain and develop customer engagement established by previous wins; maintain active relationships across relevant staff and local offices.
