About Armaments Research Company   

Armaments Research Company (ARC) is a technology company dedicated to bringing real-time situational awareness and battlefield logistics capabilities to the warfighter. You will be an integral part of the ARC team managing program execution in support of our innovative and powerful IoT devices to enhance national security.   

Our core offering is the ARC AI-Enabled Weapons Sensor (AEWS), which collects and transmits real-time tactical data to the cloud.

ARC technologies were initially developed in partnership with DARPA and the National Science Foundation and leverage internet-of-things (IoT) technology and machine learning to derive actionable insights and transform operational responses. This novel technology will be deployed at scale to enhance safety, decision-making, and sustainment for the warfighter at the tactical edge. 

What You'll Do
ARC is looking for a sharp, organized Sales Operations Associate to help run the engine behind our growth. You will support ARC’s growth team by keeping our pipeline, contracts, and customer data accurate and visible, so leadership can make fast, informed decisions about where to focus.
This is an ideal first role for a recent graduate who loves structure, data, and problem-solving and wants to learn how defense technology is sold, funded, and fielded. You will see the full path from first customer conversation to contract award to delivery, and you’ll have real ownership from the start.
