Hackathons - Team Lead (FedD068)

Role Description:

As a Team Lead at Defense Unicorns , you will serve as the technical backbone of our hackathon program: setting the architecture, integration patterns, and technical guardrails every event runs on. You'll work across the team to design, plan, and execute large-scale, community-facing hackathon events throughout the year, moving fluidly between technical strategy and energizing a room full of mission heroes, operators, and builders.

You'll evaluate and integrate the right mix of partner technologies (cloud providers, Defense Unicorns ' own platform and tooling, and the broader defense vendor ecosystem) into a durable reference architecture that works within controlled environments. You'll serve as a credible technical voice with government stakeholders and industry partners, ensuring every hackathon is built on a foundation that sets participants up to succeed and produces outcomes that can transition to production.
