• Systems and Equipment Readiness: Support installation, configuration, and validation of payloads, communications equipment, and ground control systems. Track equipment status and readiness.
• Customer and Partner Liaison: Serve as a technical point of contact for government customers, vessel and sensor manufacturers, and partner organizations. Coordinate requirements, schedules, and technical issues across multi-organization teams.
• Documentation and Standards: Develop SOPs, setup guides, CONOPS inputs, test logs, field reports, and briefings. Build repeatable processes so capabilities can be sustained and transitioned.
• Mentorship: Provide technical guidance and training to junior integrators and operations staff.
• Business Development Support: Support proposals, technical write-ups, and quarterly reporting. Identify opportunities to expand capabilities for current and new customers.

Required Qualifications:

• Active SECRET clearance (or ability to reactivate).

• Ability to understand operational requirements and translate them into practical solutions.
• Proven ability to work with government customers, partners, and multi-organization teams.
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to adapt in fast-paced, changing environments.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including briefing technical and non-technical audiences.
• Ability to lead tasks independently and mentor others.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint).

Desired Qualifications:

• Experience with unmanned systems (USV, UUV, or UAS) operations or integration.
• Experience with Navy programs, test events, or fleet experimentation.
• Familiarity with command and control (C2) and common operating picture systems.
