Valinor is a new type of defense and government tech company focused on solving the problems others don't. Unlike others in the space who focus on flashy problems, Valinor exists to solve the quiet, unaddressed problems—the small but significant ones that lead to cracks in the country's strength, stability, and security. Our unique model of centralized go-to-market and decentralized engineering allows us to move with unparalleled efficiency to identify unmet needs, build right-sized solutions, and get products where they matter most: in the hands of users.
Backed by General Catalyst, Founders Fund, and Friends & Family Capital, Valinor was founded in 2024 and has established strategic partnerships with Palantir, Anduril, and Helsing. We are building the dream team, and we want you on it.
The Valinor Hub is growing its team to support our software-focused product companies. You will work at the intersection of customer engagement, product deployment, and operational strategy, helping our software products take root in complex customer environments and deliver measurable impact. These individuals will serve as the connective tissue between Valinor's Hub and our product companies.
In this role, you will embed with customers to understand their workflows, translate findings into product and deployment improvements, and ensure our software is being used widely and effectively enough to matter. This is a role for people who are intellectually curious, low-ego, and energized by the challenge of making hard technology actually work for real users.
This role requires the candidate to be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance (active clearance preferred). If you are passionate about working on problems that have a real-world impact, we'd love to hear from you.
Valinor is an equal-opportunity employer committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace. The team is made up of incredibly talented and unique individuals who are disrupting industry norms by creating new paths towards the future of defense and government technology. All qualified applicants will be treated with respect and receive equal consideration for employment without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, uniform service, Veteran status, age, or any other protected characteristic per federal, state, or local law.
We actively encourage members of recognized minorities, women, Veterans, and those with disabilities to apply. We work to create a welcoming and supportive environment for all applicants throughout the interview process, including those with a criminal history, in a manner consistent with the requirements of applicable state and local laws, including the CA Fair Chance Initiative for Hiring Ordinance.
We are a pro-mental health and pro-family company that encourages employees to spend time with themselves and their families. While we like to laugh and take care of each other, we also deeply respect the mission in front of us.
