About Terranova
Backed by leading deep tech VCs, Terranova builds intelligent robotic systems to terraform the Earth itself - lifting land, restoring wetlands, and protecting critical infrastructure from floods. Our mission is to preserve the built environment, create new habitats, and usher in an era of abundance. Our work supports climate resilience, disaster recovery, housing development, and defense across the United States and beyond. We’re assembling a world-class team that wants to work on something real, physical, and civilization-scale. If you want your work to reshape the world (literally), this is the place to do it.
What to Expect
We are looking for a Government Programs & Proposal Lead to help turn Terranova’s technology into funded government programs, demonstrations, and contracts.
This person will own the proposal process from opportunity identification through submission, evaluation, negotiation, and follow-up. You will work directly with Terranova’s founders, engineers, field operators, and external partners to translate complex technical work into clear, persuasive, and compliant government submissions.
You will pursue opportunities across USACE, DARPA, DoD, DOE, FEMA, and other federal programs through vehicles including Commercial Solutions Openings, BAAs, OTAs, SBIR/STTR programs, grants, white papers, concept briefs, and full proposals.
This is not a role for someone who only edits documents after the strategy has already been decided. You will help determine which opportunities Terranova pursues, shape the technical and commercial argument, define the proposed program, and drive the submission to completion.
The upside is meaningful ownership and the opportunity to help establish Terranova as a major government technology and infrastructure partner.
Key Responsibilities
- Identify and evaluate government funding, contracting, and partnership opportunities aligned with Terranova’s technology and mission.
- Own proposal development from solicitation review through final submission, including schedules, compliance matrices, writing assignments, reviews, and supporting materials.
