Infleqtion seeks a Vice President of Advanced Systems (Business Capture) to lead the business capture function within the Quantum Sensing Solutions (QSS) Business Unit. This is a strategic leadership role responsible for driving business capture excellence across the quantum sensing portfolio, spanning national security, civil, and select commercial markets. Key responsibilities include establishing and leading a high-performing Advanced Systems Manager (ASM) team, defining and enforcing the capture operating model with clear roles, responsibilities, gate criteria, and handoff expectations. You will own the QSS capture pipeline and opportunity portfolio forecast, directly leading capture strategy development for significant pursuits including win themes, competitive positioning, customer engagement strategy, and teaming approaches. The role requires managing the full business lifecycle from opportunity qualification through proposal submission, customer negotiation, and contract award. You will support bid/no-bid decisions, ROM estimates, and investment decisions within delegated authority. A critical responsibility is ensuring awarded programs transition to execution with documented technical, cost, schedule, contractual, staffing, and customer baselines. You will serve as the primary business growth and program development leadership interface within QSS, partnering with Business Area VPs, Program Managers, Engineering, Finance, Contracts, Legal, Supply Chain, and Quality to ensure proposal assumptions are executable and aligned with risk posture. This includes leading executive-level proposal reviews for strategic opportunities and representing QSS capture posture in internal executive reviews and corporate growth discussions. Additional responsibilities encompass managing the QSS business opportunity database, developing and maintaining monthly capture-phase opportunity forecasts, defining forecast data structures and reporting cadence, and providing inputs to annual operating plans and board-level reporting. You will drive capture lessons learned feedback loops and establish collaborative interfaces with the enterprise Business Development function under the Chief Revenue Officer. This is an extremely high-impact leadership role that directly influences QSS and Infleqtion's growth in the quantum sensing business.
