Scientific Systems is hiring a Senior Growth Operations and Business Development Manager to bring structure, discipline, and rigor to how the Growth team runs pipeline and forecast management, reporting, compliance tracking, and execution support for the Business Development team. This is a deliberately hands-on role: given SSCI's size, the Sr Growth Operations and BD Manager will move fluidly between strategic work (forecast rigor, reporting, process design) and tactical execution (trade show logistics, meeting prep, budget tracking). The role reports directly to the Chief Growth Officer and carries the CGO's explicit backing to hold opportunity owners accountable for accurate, timely pipeline data. The Sr Growth Operations and BD Manager will build the operating rhythm, tools, and reporting that let the Business Development team remain forward-facing and focus on winning business.

- Compile and format the Growth Report for distribution to leadership.
Compliance & Contract Support

- Track action items and deliverables from external engagements through to completion.
Trade Show & Event Management
- Own trade show and engagement schedule, including read-ahead materials for attendees.

- Represent SSCI as a consistent booth presence at select shows (first in, last out) including booth build and teardown.
