  • Have 2+ years of experience leading technical teams, engineering efforts, or cross-functional initiatives.
  • Have 2+ years of experience mentoring, coaching, or developing engineers, technical professionals, or cross-functional team members.
  • Have experience translating customer requirements and mission objectives into executable technical roadmaps and deliverables.
  • Possess strong knowledge of software development lifecycles, systems engineering principles, and technical program execution.
  • Have experience managing technical schedules, dependencies, risks, and stakeholder expectations.
  • Are comfortable working across engineering, product, cybersecurity, program management organizations, including embedded subcontractor and white-badged team environments.
  • Have experience operating in Agile development environments and coordinating multiple concurrent priorities.
  • Possess strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to engage both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Have experience supporting mission-critical systems in secure or classified environments.
  • Have familiarity with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) concepts and methodologies.
  • Hold an active Secret clearance and be eligible to obtain and maintain TS/SCI access.

Bonus points if you have:
  • Experience with satellite ground systems, command and control, mission planning, mission operations, or space-domain awareness platforms.
  • Experience working with software-intensive mission systems supporting defense, intelligence, or space programs.
  • Experience supporting cloud-based architectures, distributed systems, or modern software platforms.
  • Experience with Agile program execution, DevSecOps practices, or software delivery pipelines.
  • Experience applying MBSE tools and methodologies in operational programs.
  • Familiarity with interface management, requirements traceability, and systems integration activities.
  • Experience supporting Authority to Operate (ATO), RMF, cybersecurity accreditation, or compliance efforts.
  • Experience supporting proposal development, capture efforts, or customer technical engagements.
  • Experience coordinating execution across multiple engineering organizations and external partners.
  • Familiarity with open architecture standards such as OMS, UCI, or similar frameworks.
