Solutions Engineer – Federal Law Enforcement & Counter-Terrorism – U.S. Go-to-Market

About Airis Labs

Airis Labs delivers AI-powered visual intelligence solutions that enable law enforcement, intelligence, and security agencies to analyze massive volumes of video and image data. With proven success in international markets, we are now establishing our U.S. federal presence – targeting federal law enforcement agencies, homeland security components, and counter‑terrorism organizations that require AI‑enabled visual intelligence at mission speed.

Role Summary

The Solutions Engineer is the technical backbone of Airis Labs’ U.S. go-to-market across two verticals – federal law enforcement & counter‑terrorism, and state/local law enforcement & civilian federal. You will own the pre‑sales technical cycle end-to-end: discovery, demonstration, proof of concept, RFP response, and handoff to delivery – translating Airis Labs’ platform into compelling technical narratives for government buyers.

Key Responsibilities

Technical Pre‑Sales Execution

• Own the end-to-end pre‑sales cycle: discovery, demo, POC design and execution, and technical Q&A
• Build and deliver tailored product demonstrations for federal law enforcement audiences – FBI, DHS components, DEA, ATF, USMS, NCTC, JTTFs, and fusion centers
• Design, scope, and execute POC engagements and translate outcomes into compelling operational business cases
• Author technical sections of RFPs, RFIs, and federal evaluation responses

Product & Solution Expertise

• Maintain deep expertise across the full Airis Labs platform: video analytics, object and face detection, LPR, geospatial search, and multi-source data fusion
• Serve as the bridge between Sales and Product – capturing field requirements from law enforcement buyers and surfacing them into roadmap conversations
• Build and maintain demo environments, use‑case narratives, and technical battle cards aligned to each vertical

Cross‑Vertical Support & Market Intelligence

• Coordinate pre‑sales activity across both sales verticals – managing engagement sequencing and handoffs
• Synthesize buyer feedback from demos and POCs into actionable product insights for the HQ team
• Represent Airis at key industry events alongside the Sales Directors (IACP, ASIS, AFCEA Homeland, DHS and FBI industry days, etc.)
• Advise on compliance frameworks: CJIS, FedRAMP, ICD 503, and agency‑specific data governance requirements

Required Qualifications

• 4 years in a pre‑sales, solutions engineering, or technical sales support role – ideally in AI/ML, video analytics, computer vision, biometrics, or investigative technology
• Proven track record designing and running product demos and POC engagements for federal law enforcement or enterprise buyers
• Experience authoring technical sections of government RFPs, RFIs, or capability questionnaires
• Familiarity with U.S. federal law enforcement buyer contexts – FBI, DHS, DEA, ATF, and DOJ components
• Exceptional demo and presentation skills – able to adjust technical depth on the fly based on the audience
• Awareness of compliance frameworks: CJIS, FedRAMP, ICD 503

Preferred / Nice‑to‑Have

• Prior pre‑sales experience targeting FBI, DHS operational components, DEA, ATF, USMS, NCTC, JTTFs, or fusion centers
• Background in AI‑enabled video intelligence, biometrics, LPR, or OSINT tooling for law enforcement
• Experience with on‑premise, cloud, and air‑gapped deployment environments
• Prior experience at companies selling to federal law enforcement (Palantir, Axon, Cellebrite, Verint, or similar)
