Program Manager - SOF RACER
Run the Machine Changing Defense Consortia
This month, USSOCOM launched SOF RACER — a new consortium that is free for the companies in it, pays its operators only to perform, and exists to move commercial technology to SOF operators in weeks instead of years. BMNT runs the human engine of that consortium: finding the companies, framing the problems, and preparing first-time defense vendors to compete and win. We need the person who runs it day to day.
You’ll be the working-level face of BMNT to USSOCOM, the engine-room chief for five (soon twelve) technology areas, and the reason a founder in Silicon Valley, Austin, or Boston puts hardware in an operator’s hands.
The program is funded, the clock is running, and the first competitions are coming. We’re not looking for someone to manage this program. We’re looking for someone to make it undeniable.
What you’ll actually do:
- Own BMNT’s execution across the consortium’s active Areas of Interest. Today, that’s battlespace awareness and autonomy; communications and cyber; precision effects; human-machine integration; and power and energy. There are at least seven more coming from seabed to space.
- Run the operating rhythm: problem-curation sprints with USSOCOM stakeholders, company
