About The Position

Erias Ventures was founded to serve its customers with an entrepreneurial mindset. We value creative problem-solving , open communication , and empowering our employees to make decisions and put forth new ideas. Our staff includes technical experts working across multiple disciplines, bringing diverse perspectives to every project. We are seeking engineers who wish to grow their careers and want to become part of a technically strong and growth-oriented company focused on bringing innovative solutions to the difficult mission problems facing our customers. Description We are seeking a versatile, detail-oriented Staffing & Operations Associate to join our small team. This is a hands-on role where you will do much more than just find candidates; you will be a central part of our day-to-day operations. Working directly with senior leadership, you will help to drive efficiency and growth across the organization. You will manage the full talent lifecycle—from initial sourcing to the technical nuances of the government contracting (GovCon) lifecycle. This role is ideal for a proactive professional who thrives in a small-business environment where "that’s not my job" doesn't exist. You will gain exposure to business operations, HR processes, and contract support, making this a premier opportunity for someone looking to master the GovCon ecosystem. You will manage everything from recruiting and formatting resumes to assisting with HR and security paperwork. Because this role involves coordinating between leadership, candidates, and partners, we are looking for someone with strong communication skills who can represent the company professionally. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, likes to learn new things, and wants to see how a small government contracting business operates from the ground up. This position allows telework.
