About Shift5
Shift5 is building the data platform for onboard operational technology (OT). We deliver cybersecurity, predictive maintenance, and compliance capabilities that enable defense and commercial fleets to operate with greater readiness, resilience, and mission assurance.
About the role
We are seeking a strategic, mission-aligned Growth Operations & Enablement Manager to build and scale the operational infrastructure that enables our Growth organization to execute at the highest level.
This role sits at the intersection of Sales, Product, Engineering, Marketing, Government Affairs, Capture, Contracts, and Mission Delivery, serving as the operational backbone of the Growth organization. The Growth Operations & Enablement Manager will translate complex technical capabilities into compelling customer messaging, develop scalable sales processes, build enablement content, drive cross-functional initiatives, and ensure our customer-facing teams have the tools, insights, and operational rigor needed to accelerate pipeline growth and improve win rates.
This is not a traditional sales enablement role focused solely on creating collateral. It requires strategic thinking, operational excellence, and the ability to connect multiple organizations around a common go-to-market strategy while driving execution across the Growth organization.
