We're hiring the lead price and proposal analyst supporting a high-priority DoD program office at Eglin AFB. This is the government-side evaluation seat: you analyze the price proposals that contractors submit, develop the program's negotiation positions, and act as the central coordination point for every proposal that comes into the program - tracking, routing, and shepherding each one through evaluation to award.

We're specifically looking for someone who has led price proposals from the industry side - at a prime or supplier - and can bring that insider perspective to evaluating them on behalf of the government.

This is a high-visibility role on a significant national-defense program, based on Florida's Emerald Coast - Destin-area beaches, no state income tax, and a close-knit defense community.

• Prepare and support price negotiation documentation (e.g., PNM inputs) and weighted-guidelines profit analysis
• Coordinate with DCAA, DCMA, technical evaluators, and contracting throughout source selection and negotiation
