• Mission work: CBRNE detection, response, and protection
• You own the budget, the schedule, and the client, not a slice of someone else's plan
• A voice in proposal strategy, so you shape what the program becomes next
• 12 Month Assignment, Standard 40-hour week

• Build the work breakdown, then defend the budget and schedule you built
