About the Company All the relevant skills, qualifications and experience that a successful applicant will need are listed in the following description. The Brydon Group recently acquired a services and software platform serving the government contracting (GovCon) market. The platform combines deep domain compliance services across finance, contracts, and talent with a growing, mission-critical SaaS compliance product providing critical cybersecurity compliance to the defense industrial base (DIB). Technology sits at the center of this next phase of the platform’s growth.

This role owns engineering, infrastructure, security, and internal systems, with responsibility for technology across both SaaS and services, which both support GovCon clients.

This is a key leadership role with broad scope – balancing product needs, automation requests, security and compliance requirements, and platform-level technical decisions.

Personally own core architectural decisions across application, data, and cloud infrastructure layers. Manage and scale a lean, high-output engineering team with the mandate to scale as the platform grows.

Own infrastructure, cloud architecture, and compliance initiatives, including positioning our infrastructure to support future FedRAMP and IL4 compliance as DIB customer requirements evolve. Protect customer and company data, ensuring a strong cybersecurity posture. Drive automation and AI-assisted tooling in high-volume consulting workflows—improving delivery speed, profitability, and service differentiation. Partner closely with the CEO and VP of Product on platform strategy, prioritization, and execution.Evaluate the technical posture of potential acquisitions and lead post-acquisition technology integrations. Make pragmatic build, buy, and partner decisions that support growth without over-engineering. Bring clarity and focus to technology decisions, balancing speed, risk, and long-term scalability. You Might Be a Fit If You Have 10+ years of progressive technology leadership and engineering experience, including significant time as a hands-on engineer and engineering manager in GovCon or other regulated B2G environments. Have personally designed, built, and operated secure, production systems handling sensitive data. Have experience supporting or building GovTech SaaS platforms. Are deeply familiar with security, compliance, and data protection requirements in regulated markets. Have led cloud and infrastructure decisions where reliability, auditability, and trust are non-negotiable. Are comfortable operating across product, services, and internal systems – not just external-facing software. Bring a bias for execution and pragmatism, critical for a fast-growing, PE-backed environment. Can operate as a true business partner to the CEO, translating technical decisions into business impact. Success in This Role Looks Like The platform operates securely, reliably, and compliantly as it scales. Internal systems and automation materially improve consulting delivery efficiency and margin.
