Manager, Strategic Learning & Training

Company Description

Govini transforms Defense Acquisition from an outdated manual process to a software-driven strategic advantage for the United States. Our flagship product, Ark, supports Supply Chain, Science and Technology, Production, Sustainment, Logistics, and Modernization teams with AI-enabled Applications and best-in-class data to more rapidly imagine, develop, and field the capabilities we need. Today, the national security community and every branch of the military rely on Govini to enable faster and more informed Acquisition decisions.

You must understand human-centric adult learning principles, care about national security, and have strong business acumen. You like people and are eager to find ways to help them succeed through immersive and engaging training that encompasses national security topics such as logistics and sustainment in contested environments, and the use of data, technology, and AI/ML to advance learning and decision-making.
