Electrosoft

Electrosoft Services, LLC is an award-winning company that provides comprehensive technology-based solutions and services to federal customers.

What sets us apart from all other contractors is the sense of  teamwork our employees feel – and the knowledge that outstanding effort is recognized and rewarded.  The camaraderie we share emanates from Lunch & Learn sessions where we explore new ideas together, fun group activities ranging from escape rooms to miniature golf, and much, much more. If we’ve described you and your dream workplace, please apply and share in the many benefits and opportunities we offer.

  • Coordinate gate reviews and ensure opportunities progress through the business development lifecycle.
  • Collaborate with technical, operational, pricing, contracts, and proposal teams to develop compelling solutions.
  • Shape opportunities through customer engagement, teaming strategies, and discriminator development.
  • Manage teaming agreements, partner relationships, and subcontractor coordination.
  • Conduct black hat sessions, SWOT analyses, and competitive assessments.

Proposal Support

  • Support proposal development activities including solutioning, win themes, compliance reviews, and color team reviews.
  • Ensure proposal responses align with customer requirements, evaluation criteria, and corporate strategy.
  • Assist in development of staffing approaches, management plans, transition strategies, and technical narratives.

  • 5+ years of Federal Business Development and/or Capture Management experience.
  • Proven track record supporting or leading captures resulting in contract awards.
  • Strong knowledge of Federal procurement processes, FAR, and contract vehicles (e.g., GSA MAS, GWACs, BPAs, IDIQs).
  • Experience with CRM and pipeline management tools such as Salesforce.
  • Excellent communication, presentation, and relationship management skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple pursuits simultaneously in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong analytical, organizational, and strategic planning capabilities.

The actual base salary offered will be determined based on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the candidate’s relevant years and depth of experience, skills and qualifications, education, certifications, internal equity, and the specific requirements of the position. Candidates should not assume they will be offered the top of the posted range, as compensation is based on the individual qualifications and overall fit for the role.

In addition to base salary, this position may be eligible for a performance-based bonus or incentive opportunity tied to individual and/or company production and results. Bonus eligibility, targets, and payouts are subject to the applicable incentive plan and are not guaranteed. Total compensation may therefore exceed the stated base salary range based on performance and achievement of applicable goals.
