This is an onsite role based in Huntsville, AL.

What You Will Do

• Define, document, and deploy software engineering execution processes, workflows, and guidance artifacts that ensure technical rigor, traceability, and alignment with engineering lifecycle requirements.

• Develop and maintain software release compliance artifacts—including Software Development Plans (SDPs), Command Media–aligned process enablers, and engineering execution controls—to ensure releases meet required technical and procedural standards.

• Analyze software engineering performance data using quantitative methods to identify systemic issues, execution bottlenecks, risk indicators, performance gaps, and optimization opportunities; translate findings into technically actionable recommendations for engineering leadership.

• Support the design, implementation, and sustainment of manual, tool-enabled, and automated data collection solutions that improve metric accuracy, data repeatability, engineering observability, and statistical validity across programs.

• Architect engineering performance dashboards, scorecards, analytics pipelines, and leadership reporting products that transform raw engineering data into high-fidelity technical insight for decision-making and continuous improvement.

• Facilitate technical working sessions with engineering teams, process owners, and stakeholders to establish precise metric definitions, operational thresholds, calculation methods, data governance rules, and standardized reporting expectations.

• Support engineering process and metric governance by ensuring operational definitions are technically sound, auditable, and scalable; contribute to process change control, configuration management, and cross-program engineering process alignment.

• Perform all responsibilities onsite to enable direct technical engagement, collaboration, and hands-on interaction with engineering and program teams.

What You Will Learn

• Accelerate your understanding of end-to-end engineering lifecycle execution — and see firsthand how disciplined processes directly shape cost, schedule, technical performance, and product quality across cutting-edge programs.

• Develop high-value engineering metrics and performance indicators that are practical to collect, scientifically defined, and tightly aligned with engineering and leadership objectives.

• Transform ambiguous or complex engineering challenges into clear processes, structured data flows, and repeatable decision frameworks that improve technical accuracy, reduce friction, and elevate execution maturity.

• Build strong partnerships across software engineering, functional organizations, and program teams — gaining experience influencing stakeholders, clarifying expectations, and aligning groups around shared engineering objectives.

• Enhance your ability to communicate engineering performance in compelling ways by creating dashboards, scorecards, and briefings that translate complex technical data into insights leaders can act on.

• Grow as a process-driven engineering professional, gaining exposure to governance, compliance frameworks, change management, and organizational improvement that strengthens long-term career development.

Qualifications You Must Have

• Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 8 years of prior relevant experience unless prohibited by local laws/regulations.

• Experience in software engineering, systems engineering, engineering operations, or software process/metrics roles.

• Experience developing, documenting, or maintaining software engineering processes, workflows, SDPs, or other engineering compliance artifacts.

• Experience performing quantitative analysis of engineering or technical performance data (trend analysis, statistical methods, root‑cause analysis).

• Experience creating dashboards, scorecards, or reporting products using tools such as Power BI, Tableau, or similar.

• Experience with metrics including calculation, operational thresholds, or data governance requirements.

• Experience leading or facilitating technical working sessions with engineering teams or stakeholders to align processes, metrics, or reporting expectations.

• The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued interim secret security clearance is required prior to start. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance.

Qualifications We Prefer

• Experience in software engineering or engineering operations within aerospace, defense, or highly regulated environments.

• Experience working with Command Media, process change control, engineering governance, or compliance frameworks.

• Hands‑on experience designing or supporting automated or tool‑enabled data collection solutions for engineering metrics.

• Experience architecting analytics pipelines or engineering performance dashboards for leadership decision‑making.

• Background in configuration management, quality engineering, or process improvement frameworks such as CMMI, AS9100, or Lean.

• Experience performing statistical analysis using Python, R, MATLAB, or JMP.

• Strong ability to communicate complex engineering data through technical briefings, dashboards, and leadership reports.
