  • Lead and support Government/Contractor Working Group meetings-by developing briefings, leading discussion, and writing minutes-to address/resolve risks, issues, and action items
  • Review proposed changes to the technical baseline for impacts to enterprise capabilities and to cross-stakeholder integration concerns
  • Conduct trade studies, engineering analyses, and technical assessments to develop and evaluate alternative solutions for complex integration and architecture challenges; assess technical, cost, schedule, and performance impacts of recommended solutions.
  • Facilitate technical reviews of program documentation, including requirements specifications, interface control documents (ICDs), verification artifacts, engineering analyses, and design products; provide technical comments and adjudicate resolutions with stakeholders.
  • Serve as a subject matter expert to assess technical issues and to prepare briefings to U.S. Space Force program office personnel and other stakeholders; provide courses of actions to support Government decisions
