Uber AI Solutions is reimagining how the world moves by solving the hardest problems in autonomy, localization, and automation. Having built one of the world's most sophisticated AI-driven platforms, we are now extending our core capabilities-data labeling, map editing, and AI model validation-to the Public Sector. We help agencies accelerate their own automation journeys by providing the human-verified data and rigorous testing environments required to deploy AI with confidence and precision.
As a Lead Account Executive, Public Sector, you will be responsible for expanding Uber AI Solutions' footprint across the Federal Civilian and Defense landscape.

• *Agency Partnership: Serve as a "Trusted Advisor" to agency stakeholders, helping them bridge the gap between their current legacy systems and modern, scalable technology solutions.
• *Strategic Pipeline Management: Manage a multi-million dollar pipeline with high precision. You will be expected to forecast accurately by understanding agency fiscal years and funding availability.
• *Proposal & Contract Leadership: Lead the response for RFIs, RFPs, and RFQs, working closely with Legal and Finance teams to ensure all submissions are compliant, competitive, and technically sound.

• 8+ years of experience in B2B technology sales, with a focus on SaaS, Cloud Infrastructure, or AI/ML services with long-term sales cycles (6-18 months) and multi-stakeholder buy-in.
• Experience in Consultative Selling or Value Engineering, with the ability to draft complex Statements of Work (SOWs) and business cases that align technical capabilities (like data labeling or HITL) with specific customer outcomes.

Preferred Qualifications

• *Federal Acquisition Mastery: 5+ years of Federal experience with a deep understanding of the PPBE process and the "Color of Money" (O&M, Procurement, RDT&E); ability to guide customers on aligning their funding cycles with procurement timelines.
• *Relationship Capital: Demonstrated success in leveraging an existing network of agency leaders (GS-15/SES level) and Systems Integrator (SI) partners to accelerate market entry.
• *Contracting Acumen: Expert knowledge of FAR/DFARS and various contract vehicles (GSA, SEWP, NASA, OTA) to ensure seamless deal execution.
• *Technical Translation: Ability to convert technical requirements into a "Mission-First" narrative, including the management of Pilots and Po Cs to prove value before a full-scale award.
• *Customer-to-Product Loop: Proven ability to act as a "Voice of the Customer," synthesizing feedback on product features, data quality, and pricing models to influence internal Product and Engineering roadmaps.
• *Market Development: Demonstrated success in greenfield expansion and launching new products or penetrating untapped market segments where no established blueprint exists.
