Doug Rubinchak

Doug Rubinchak is the owner and CEO of LEAD Endeavors LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business in Augusta, Georgia. Doug is a U.S. Army veteran and has supported the United States Intelligence Community as a Federal Government contractor since 2004. During that time, he has served as an intelligence analyst and reporter, subject matter expert, instructor, task lead, project manager, and small business owner. Doug holds a Master of Business Administration degree with an emphasis on Cybersecurity Management, a PMP certificate from the Project Management Institute, and a Top Secret SCI security clearance with full scope polygraph.

Doug founded and organized LEAD Endeavors in 2017. He has led LEAD Endeavors to overcome experienced competitors and win prime contracts with the Federal Government and secure multiple additional subcontracts in the industry space. He oversees daily operations, business development efforts, staffing and employee experience, cybersecurity and information assurance, finance and accounting, and industrial and personnel security, among other efforts. Prior to this, Doug helped lead and manage the Georgia-based technical task orders for a large DoW technical intelligence analysis and reporting contract.

Prior to working as a federal contractor, Doug was a U.S. Army Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) collector and analyst stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He is a graduate of the U.S. Army Airborne and Advanced Airborne schools and, as the Non-Commissioned Officer in Charge of a collection and analysis team, he deployed to multiple hostile locations in support of military operations. His dismounted mobile collection team was charged with early warning and force protection duties as well as briefing intelligence updates to commanders and assisting with the coordination and placement of brigade collection assets.

Doug lives in Appling, Georgia, with his wife, two children, and two English Springer Spaniels–all of whom he loves dearly. In his spare time, he enjoys hiking, landscaping, and bourbon.
