Responsibilities
- Execute obsolescence analysis and remediation planning for existing ground-based systems supporting operational satellite networks.
- Analyze complex networked systems to identify root causes, dependencies, technical constraints, and viable remediation paths.
- Perform technical analysis, system design, and architectural evaluation to resolve obsolescence issues across integrated hardware, software, processing, and networking environments.
- Develop effective and efficient solutions for obsolescence problems that balance mission impact, technical performance, cybersecurity, sustainment, cost, and schedule considerations.
- Make strategic recommendations and remediation decisions in coordination with engineering, supply chain, program management, and other stakeholders.
- Communicate analysis results and remediation decisions to internal and external stakeholders with clarity, confidence, and technical rigor.
- Prepare engineering technical scope, estimates of cost and schedules for remediation activities that define the path forward through completion of implementation.
- Coordinate with system engineers, network engineers, software teams, suppliers, and program leadership in support of mitigation strategies.
- Monitor component and system lifecycle status through manufacturer notices, coordinate software and hardware support for lifecycle maintenance, and identify supply chain risks.
- Support change management, configuration control, documentation updates, and verification activities related to remediation implementation.
- Mentor less experienced team members and contribute to the continuous improvement of obsolescence and lifecycle management processes.
