• Track deliverables, milestones, and compliance requirements across the program lifecycle.
• Identify financial and contractual risks and support mitigation planning.Coordinate across technical, finance, and program management teams to ensure operational transparency.
• Utilize Smartsheet, Excel, and reporting tools to manage workflows and financial tracking artifacts.

Minimum Qualifications

• U.S. Citizenship with the ability to obtain and maintain a Public Trust clearance.
