Ensure compliance with U.S. Government contracting requirements, including FAR and TINA.

Drive a data-driven operating rhythm (PMRs, ETC/EAC reviews, leadership updates) with crisp status, risks, and mitigation plans.

6+ years of progressive program/project management experience in aerospace or defense, including people leadership.

Strong program finance skills (ETC/EAC forecasting, program P&L, risk/opportunity estimation, and ASC 606 revenue recognition) with comfort using metrics and dashboards to drive decisions.

Experience building scalable program management systems (tools, templates, governance, reporting) and driving adoption across cross-functional teams.

Strong planning discipline, including integrated master schedules, clear critical-path thinking, and waterfall execution.
