Responsibilities :

• Use your expertise in federal procurement law to help the Business Development and Engineering teams efficiently capture new contracts, grow existing ones, and set up follow-on opportunities for future business.
• Work on all legal aspects of Beehive's legal work, from negotiating agreements, to handling disputes, to managing intellectual property, compliance, and employment matters. Beehive expects its attorneys to contribute in all areas where they have (or can develop) skills.

• Provide legal counsel on the entire acquisition lifecycle.
