About Dominion Dynamics
Dominion Dynamics is building Canada’s first modern defence prime: software-defined, attritable, and sovereign.
We believe tomorrow’s military power won’t hinge on exquisite platforms, but on the seamless coordination of adaptable, AI-driven capabilities across every domain. We’re building that family of systems, fielded with operators, sovereign by design, and accountable to Canada’s democratic values.
We move fast, deploy with the CAF, especially in the Arctic, and operate with uncompromising respect for Canadian law, treaty obligations, and the CAF community.
Our founding team includes former operators from Anduril, Google, Amazon, and the Canadian Armed Forces. We’re building hard tech in hard places, and we're looking for system-level thinkers who thrive at the intersection of autonomy, aerospace, and national security.
Why This Role Matters
Canada is entering a re-armament and modernization cycle (NORAD, Arctic, C4ISR, autonomy). To win, we must shape the narrative around sovereign, attritable, software-heavy capability, and turn real field results into market demand, partner pull, and program momentum. We build → show → sell. We need a marketing leader who can translate deployments into clear positioning, measurable demand, and sustained brand authority across Canada and Five-Eyes/NATO.
