TL;DR · Senior Capture Manager

As the Senior Capture Manager within the Channel & Alliances organization, you will serve as the vital link between federal systems integrator partners and internal federal sales teams. You will lead joint capture strategies for a portfolio of priority federal programs, managing each effort from early shaping through to acquisition. Your daily responsibilities include developing documented capture plans, identifying requirements, resolving channel conflicts, and coordinating with distributors like Carahsoft and Vertosoft to ensure pricing consistency across GSA Schedule and SEWP vehicles. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to manage RFIs, shape response strategies, and advance qualified pursuits through customer discovery and architectural inclusion. The role requires expertise in federal technology sales, cloud infrastructure, observability, cybersecurity, and DevSecOps concepts to navigate the complexities of public sector procurement and multi-partner teaming environments effectively.

What you'll do

  • Develop and manage joint-capture strategies for a portfolio of priority federal programs 12-24 months before RFP release.
  • Act as the primary liaison between federal systems integrators (FSI) and internal federal sales teams to ensure alignment.
  • Create and maintain detailed capture plans covering mission, stakeholders, funding, and acquisition paths for each program.
  • Identify and resolve channel conflicts where partner-led and direct-led pursuits overlap on the same accounts.
  • Coordinate with distributors to ensure consistent pricing, SKU naming, and quoting across GSA and SEWP contract vehicles.
  • Manage teaming strategies with FSI partners and identify potential most-favored-nation or pricing consistency issues early.
  • Lead the strategy for RFIs and sources-sought responses in collaboration with cross-functional internal teams.
  • Advance qualified pursuits through discovery and architectural inclusion before transitioning them to account executives for execution.

What we're looking for

  • 8 to 10+ years of experience in capture management, channel/alliances, or business development within U.S. federal technology sales.
  • Experience bridging channel/alliance partners and internal direct sales teams in a partner-liaison or joint-capture role.
  • Working knowledge of government contract vehicles such as GSA Schedule and SEWP.
  • Knowledge of how pricing, SKUs, and quoting flow through public sector distributors like Carahsoft and Vertosoft.
  • Established relationships with or experience working alongside major federal systems integrators and primes.
  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure, observability, cybersecurity, or DevSecOps concepts to represent the technical category credibly.
  • Ability to resolve channel conflict diplomatically and align partner-side teams with internal federal teams.
  • An active U.S. government security clearance is preferred.
