Specifically, the position will be responsible for, but not limited to:

• Leading a team to support the government customer in the creation, review, and assessment of Weapon Systems Structure acquisition planning, cost, schedule, and performance, in order to meet Sentinel requirements and timelines.
• Validating and verifying infrastructure requirements, tracking status, and guiding teams through design.
• Advising the customer on infrastructure-related risks and opportunities that may influence strategic leadership decision-making.
• Supporting infrastructure project programming, planning, and design efforts by guiding the team to develop schedules, collect requirements, and gain project approval.

Who You Are

The Infrastructure and Deployment Branch is seeking an experienced engineer with a willingness to learn, contribute, and mentor in a fast-paced environment. You must possess high energy and be comfortable working with changing priorities. Some of the traits that make up an ideal candidate include:

• Being a collaborator who loves working with a team and receiving input from others.
• Constantly asking questions and loving to learn.
• Being willing and able to mentor junior Program Managers in Acquisition planning and execution.
• Being customer-oriented and always trying to anticipate customers' needs, working to exceed their expectations.
