TL;DR · Director of Maneuver Dominance & Maritime, International Trade Compliance

The Director of Maneuver Dominance & Maritime joins the Air Maneuver Dominance & Maritime team to lead international trade compliance for commercial dual-use platforms. This role involves developing and maintaining program controls for export-controlled technology, designing infrastructure to ensure engineering goals align with regulatory frameworks, and managing jurisdiction and classification determinations. The individual will partner with senior leadership to shape strategy, coordinate with external partners like the U.S. Government, and oversee export authorizations while providing training on ITAR and EAR regulations. Key responsibilities include developing classification heuristics, leveraging AI for risk-mitigated determinations, and managing multi-jurisdictional data repositories. The role requires expertise in international trade laws, hardware and software development principles, and navigating co-production projects across multiple countries to ensure compliance with U.S. export regulations while supporting the development of robotic systems and advanced autonomy algorithms.

What you'll do

  • Develop and maintain program controls for dual-use and export-controlled technologies for civil and defense customers.
  • Design and implement trade compliance policies and infrastructure to align engineering goals with regulatory requirements.
  • Provide strategic guidance on jurisdiction and classification determinations for global product lines.
  • Establish consistent export classification processes, heuristics, and methodologies across all global operations.
  • Oversee export authorizations to ensure compliance with license scopes, provisos, and associated conditions.
  • Coordinate with external partners and government agencies to align product roadmaps with internal compliance postures.
  • Provide training and guidance to staff regarding ITAR, EAR, and other international regulations.
  • Manage multi-jurisdictional data repository security for collaborative environments like GitHub.

What we're looking for

  • Must be a U.S. Person due to access requirements for export-controlled information or facilities.
  • Eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. Top Secret clearance.
  • Over 15 years of experience providing strategic advice on international trade regulations in regions such as the U.S., UK, EU, and Australia.
  • Over 10 years of experience in product development, defense technology, startups, or defense contracting.
  • Over 5 years of experience in trade compliance, international trade controls, or international contracts management.
  • Ability to travel up to 25% for the role.
  • Understanding of engineering concepts across software and hardware to develop policies segregating commercial and export-controlled technologies.
  • Ability to navigate complex regulatory roadblocks and manage multi-jurisdictional data repository compliance.
