This is a delivery-leadership role for a hands-on technical leader—someone who came up through engineering and mission delivery and can still evaluate an architecture, a data model, or a design decision, but whose primary job is now to build, develop, and get the best out of a high-caliber technical team.</p> <p>You will own the quality and success of federal delivery across a portfolio of accounts: hiring and coaching Federal Solution Leaders, setting technical standards and repeatable solution patterns, staffing the right people to the right missions, and stepping in on the hardest technical and customer challenges. You will be the senior technical face of the team to government executives, and the connective tissue back to C3 AI’s product and engineering organizations. This role manages a team of Federal Solution Leaders and reports into C3 AI’s Federal leadership.</p> <p><strong>Responsibilities:</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Lead and develop the team. </strong>Hire, coach, mentor, and manage the performance of a team of Federal Solution Leaders—growing their technical depth, mission fluency, and customer-leadership skills, and building a bench for the future.</li> <li><strong>Own delivery quality. </strong>Be accountable for the technical quality and mission impact of engagements across the federal portfolio, ensuring solutions are sound, secure, and delivered to production.</li> <li><strong>Set technical standards. </strong>Establish the architecture standards, delivery methodology, reusable solution patterns, and best practices the team works from, and raise the technical bar over time.</li> <li><strong>Staff the mission. </strong>Match the right people to the right accounts, balance capacity across engagements, and manage utilization and resourcing as demand shifts.</li> <li><strong>Stay technically credible. </strong>Remain close enough to the work to review architectures, pressure-test design decisions, and personally help unblock the hardest technical and data problems when the team needs it.</li> <li><strong>Engage government executives. </strong>Serve as a senior technical leader in front of government sponsors and mission owners—building trust, navigating escalations, and representing the team’s work at the executive level.</li> <li><strong>Own federal readiness. </strong>Ensure delivery across the portfolio meets federal security and compliance expectations (e.g., FedRAMP, DoD Impact Levels IL4–IL6, NIST 800-53/800-171, and applicable ATO processes) and that work is executed appropriately in classified and controlled environments.</li> <li><strong>Bridge field to product. </strong>Channel field learnings from across the team into C3 AI’s product and engineering organizations so the platform and the next deployment get better.</li> <li><strong>Support growth. </
