ABOUT CAPE Cape is America’s privacy-first mobile carrier. Our mission is to be a force for good in global wireless. Cape was founded in 2022 by people who believe privacy is a fundamental right, not a luxury to be traded away. Our journey began when our founder recognized a critical vulnerability in our modern world: everyone relies on the same stagnant cellular infrastructure and legacy systems that track our every movement, monitor and profile our connections, and lose and sell our personal data. Instead of accepting the status quo, we decided to fix it. National security professionals, journalists, parents, and everyone in between can stay connected and have privacy. We didn’t just build a layer on top of old tech; we built America’s most private and secure mobile carrier from the ground up. By building our own network from scratch, we are able to design and build a suite of privacy and security features that no other carrier on the planet can offer. Today, Cape provides our secure network to consumers, businesses, and government agencies alike. We closed our Series C in March 2026, and we are scaling rapidly, with the goal of giving people back control of their most personal information. THE TEAM At Cape, we are the architects of a privacy-centric movement that is just getting started. We are relentless builders, constantly innovating at the edge of what's possible in telecommunications. We operate on a foundation of high trust and high expectations. Our structure is flat, and collaboration matters more than hierarchy. As a member of our team, you will collaborate with world-class engineers, architects, and visionaries, and work across organizational lines to solve "impossible" problems and deliver mission-critical results for our users every single day. THE ROLE We are looking for a Government Operations Analyst to support our Product Operations team in support of fulfillment and customer service - an integral role in Cape's rapidly growing privacy-focused communications solutions. You will be a force multiplier - navigating key deliveries, forecasting product throughput, and solving high visibility issues for core government customers. The team you will join solves problems in a high tempo environment aligned with federal business opportunities in support of Cape's rapid growth. As a steward of Cape culture you will do excellent work with a bias for action, while respecting your team and the Cape customer.

You ensure every operational goal directly supports the end-user’s mission success in the field. * Tier 2 Technical Authority: Serve as the definitive technical subject matter expert (SME) for post-deployment issues. You resolve high-complexity technical hurdles through advanced troubleshooting and direct coordination with internal engineering or external mission partners. * Tactical Deployment & Fulfillment: Lead the operational rollout of hardware and specialized services across the portfolio. You ensure seamless delivery, integration, and operator onboarding for deployments where failure is not an option. * Operational Readiness & QA: Execute rigorous, end-to-end QA for weekly releases to validate compatibility across device, OS, and secure network layers.
