Own the financial backbone of federal sales efforts by leading proposal cost volumes, structuring deals, and creating scalable processes for a rapidly growing aerospace company.
Astranis builds advanced satellites for high orbits, expanding humanity’s reach into the solar system. Today, Astranis satellites provide dedicated, secure networks to highly-sophisticated customers across the globe— large enterprises, sovereign governments, and the US military. With five satellites on orbit and many more set to launch soon, the company is servicing a backlog of more than $1 billion of commercial contracts.
Astranis is the preferred satellite communications partner for buyers with stringent requirements for uptime, data security, network visibility, and customization. Astranis has raised over $750 million from some of the world’s best investors, from Andreessen Horowitz to Blackrock and Fidelity, and employs a team of 450 engineers and entrepreneurs. Astranis designs, builds, and operates its satellites out of its 153,000 sq. ft. headquarters in Northern California, USA.
As Astranis’s Director of Sales Finance for U.S. Government Programs, you will own the financial backbone of our federal sales efforts. We are seeking to hire the best — a senior finance leader who has mastered government contracting, proposal pricing, and revenue forecasting, and who can build scalable processes to support our fast-growing business with the U.S. government.
You are an ideal candidate if you thrive at the intersection of government sales and finance: building compliant cost-volume proposals, modeling long-term revenue streams, and partnering with BD, contracts, and program management to ensure financial discipline on every deal. You should be as comfortable rolling up your sleeves to prepare pricing packages as you are presenting revenue forecasts and risk analyses to leadership. Most importantly, you should bring a builder’s mindset, designing scalable financial processes to meet the complexity of federal sales at a rapidly growing aerospace company.
Astranis is putting satellites into orbit — government contracts are central to our mission. If you thrive under pressure, operate with precision, and want to play a pivotal role in scaling a business-critical function, this is your opportunity.
