• Producing the deliverables that develop the technology advantage enabler.
• Analysing how it supports each named line of development.
• Updating the vision documents so there is one shared understanding of it.

• Supporting the definition of initial and full operating capability.
• Building the community of interest and the stakeholder engagement around it.
• Reporting to the project manager and sponsor on progress against the action plan.

• Experience judging how future technology applies in a military environment.
• The ability to work analytically on technology documentation and build practical adoption examples.
• Comfortable with office tooling and open-source research.
