Sales Engineer/Deployment Strategist | Government Technology

Herndon, VA | Hybrid: Tuesday–Thursday onsite

Active Secret clearance and US citizenship required

25–50% travel

$124,000–$206,000 OTE | 70% base / 30% uncapped variable

Enjoy figuring out what a customer needs—and getting the technology working?

EVONA is partnering with an established space and geospatial intelligence company to hire four Deployment Strategists supporting US Government customers.

You’ll connect government mission needs with practical software solutions, working across customers, sales, product and engineering. From discovery and demonstrations through integration and deployment, you’ll take ownership of helping customers put technology to work.

What you’ll do

• Work directly with government customers to understand mission challenges and uncover technical requirements.
• Design and demonstrate solutions that address customer needs.
• Configure, integrate and support software deployments.
• Partner with account executives to shape opportunities and support commercial discussions.
• Translate customer requirements into clear technical direction for product and engineering teams.
• Own technical problem-solving throughout delivery and help customers achieve meaningful outcomes.

What we’re looking for

• A strong technical foundation in software, systems, cloud or platform engineering.
• Hands-on experience building, configuring, integrating or deploying technical solutions.
• Experience working with US Government or defence customers.
• Familiarity with technologies such as APIs, AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, networking and integrations.
• The ability to explain technical concepts clearly and turn an unclear customer problem into a practical solution.
• Confidence working independently and collaborating with technical and commercial stakeholders.
• An active Secret clearance and US citizenship.

Around 2–4 years of relevant experience could be a strong fit, although we’re flexible on experience level. Technical aptitude, ownership and growth potential matter more than an exact title.

You might currently be a Solutions Engineer, Forward Deployed Engineer, Implementation Engineer, Technical Solutions Engineer , or a customer-facing Cloud or Platform Engineer .

Geospatial experience, coding or scripting skills, and TS/SCI clearance are advantageous. You don’t need to be a software developer, but you should be able to explain what you’ve personally implemented.

Why consider it?

• Work directly on government mission challenges.
• Own solutions from initial discovery through technical delivery.
• Gain exposure across a broad technology portfolio and multiple government accounts.
• Build your career at the intersection of engineering, customer strategy and commercial growth.

Compensation: $124,000–$206,000 target total compensation, comprising approximately $86,800–$144,200 base salary plus target variable compensation. The compensation mix is 70% base and 30% variable, with uncapped incentive potential.
