Enable the Mission: Provide on‑site enablement, technical integration support, and use‑case demonstrations within customer facilities in Chantilly, VA, Southern Maryland, and the greater DC metropolitan area.

Exceptional Communication: Mastery of "technical diplomacy"—the ability to listen actively, negotiate complex requirements, and convey technical concepts with empathy and integrity to stakeholders. Independence: A self‑starter mindset with the ability to conduct solo client visits, perform deep‑dive technical discovery, and manage projects from inception to completion. Nice to Have Crypto Expertise: Understanding of cryptocurrency ecosystems (mining, DeFi, smart contracts, tracing). Advanced Tech: Experience with Generative AI or Open Source Intelligence (OSINT). Certifications: Specialized finance or security certifications such as CAMS, CCAS, CGSS, or CFE.
