Description

Who we are: Fuse builds innovative communications, networking, and computing solutions that improve the sharing of information, video, text, and voice among operators distributed throughout the airborne, maritime, and ground environments. We are a technology firm creating in-house software, network and hardware solutions that support our noble cause of advancing warfighter capabilities with elegant, user-focused communications, networks, and software systems. About this role: Fuse is a small, fast-moving secure BLOS (beyond-line-of-sight) communications company seeking an experienced veteran who combines operational Air Force bomber experience (preferably former bomber aircrew) with inside knowledge of acquisition/requirements/program offices. This person will open doors to decision makers, translate warfighter needs into credible programmatic proposals, and shepherd initial technical integrations to demonstration—establishing trust and partnerships that accelerate adoption of our capability. This is a part-time role, initially estimated around 250 hours annually. What you’ll do: Serve as the company’s primary internal/external subject matter lead for all US bomber platforms and missions (B-52/B-1/B-2 family of missions, tactics, architectures). Translate operational capability gaps into Fuse products and capabilities and feed those to engineering for rapid prototypes/demos. Build and maintain relationships with acquisition program offices, requirements offices, operational command staff, test centers, and warfighter SMEs to secure briefings, demo opportunities, and integrated trials. Consult on programmatic engagement plans (pilot demos, DT/OT support, planning conferences, mission trials) to validate our BLOS products on bomber platforms. Advise on acquisition strategies (other transaction authority, FMS, COTS + integration paths) and help draft acquisition-friendly materials (OV-1/OV-2 style briefs, demos, test plans). Mentor junior BD/technical staff on engagement messaging and aircraft/mission realities. We are looking for: Military bomber experience: aircrew experience on a US bomber (preferred) or 5+ years working inside bomber program/requirements offices with deep mission knowledge. Deep familiarity with bomber mission sets, avionics/communications architectures, installation constraints (power, EMI, weight, form factor), and typical aircraft change control processes. Track record of high-level stakeholder engagement — program offices, requirements authorities, operational commanders, test centers. Strong understanding of DoD acquisition lifecycle and how industry gets fielding opportunities (demo/OT, test, milestones). Active or prior U.S. government security clearance (Secret minimum; TS/SCI preferred) — or the ability to obtain one quickly. More about Fuse: Founded in 2010, Fuse is a veteran-owned, rapidly growing small business. Our San Diego-based company has earned recognition as an emerging leader in airborne, maritime, and ground networking. Placing the warfighter at the center of every design process, Fuse delivers intuitive, agile, and resilient products that go beyond national security requirements—providing lasting utility and game-changing results. We take pride in our brilliant and talented team as well as our dynamic environment and collaborative, creative, environment. We build cutting-edge hardware and software products that solve complex national security challenges for our warfighters at the tactical edge. 40 hours of paid sick leave per year
