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.
As Dominion Dynamics scales, leadership leverage becomes critical. The Chief of Staff is a force multiplier for the executive team ensuring priorities are clear, execution stays tight, and the organization moves forward without friction.
This role sits at the center of the company, connecting strategy to execution. You’ll help leaders focus on the highest-impact work while you drive follow-through, solve problems, and keep the business operating smoothly. If things are getting done, aligned, and moving fast, you’re doing your job well.
This is a high-trust, high-ownership role for someone who thrives in fast-moving startup environments. You’ll be the right hand to the CEO and COO, anticipating needs, driving initiatives forward, unblocking issues, and stepping in wherever required.
No two days will look the same. You might be running leadership meetings, coordinating cross-functional work, tightening internal operations, supporting the office, or handling an urgent problem that just landed. You’ll need to be comfortable with ambiguity, able to operate with little direction, and motivated by making the entire organization more effective.
This is an on-site role based out of our Kanata office and is critical to how Dominion Dynamics operates day to day.
