  • Cross-organization technical integration - Coordinate technical discussions with SMEs and stakeholders to define future space and ground capability needs and shape system-level decisions.
  • Mission architecture planning - Conduct technical trade studies, evaluate emerging technologies, and recommend future software service architectures.
  • Performance & risk assessments - Evaluate performance, cost, schedule, and risk impacts to existing and emerging GEOINT ground-system implementations.
  • Acquisition engineering - Develop systems engineering artifacts for Statements of Work, RFPs, and acquisition documentation; support proposal evaluations.
  • Vendor evaluation - Review technical reports, design artifacts, and program plans to ensure feasibility, compliance, and alignment with mission needs.
  • Dependency management - Identify, analyze, and track technical and acquisition dependencies across programs and organizations.
