  • Conduct capability-gap, dependency, and portfolio analyses that identify actionable integration or acquisition choices.
  • Synthesize technical and operational evidence into concise decision products for senior stakeholders.
  • Support cross-functional teams addressing mission, capability, integration, and transition problems.

Required Qualifications
  • 7+ years of relevant mission decomposition, mission-thread, operational-effects, capability-analysis, gap-analysis, or portfolio-review experience.
  • Demonstrated ability to connect analysis to real funding, acquisition, implementation, integration, or transition decisions.
  • Strong structured analytical, written, and stakeholder-communication skills.
  • United States citizenship is required.
  • Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a Top Secret security clearance.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to produce concise, decision-ready technical products.
  • Applicants must provide specific examples of their personal technical delivery, including the mission or operational problem, their technical role, and the outcome.

What Makes an Application Stand Out

Show how you personally converted a mission or operational need into an integration, test, transition, fielding, or acquisition decision. Name the problem, your technical role, the stakeholders you worked with, the evidence you produced, and the operational outcome.
