The Opportunity

CACI is seeking an experienced, action-oriented SATCOM Strategic Analyst to join our team supporting the Army DCS, G-6, Network Command Control Communications, and Computers (C4) Services Integration (NC4SI) Directorate. In this high-visibility role, you will act as the bridge between strategic discussions and tangible execution for the Army's enterprise-level SATCOM initiatives. You will work directly with the customer to capture their intent, help architect strategic courses of action, and independently produce the high-quality staff work required to drive mission success. This position is designed for a "doer" who excels in a fast-paced headquarters environment. We are looking for a professional who can walk out of an executive-level meeting, distill complex challenges into clear strategies, and immediately draft succinct, decision-ready deliverables for leadership

Responsibilities

• Participate in high-level Army Staff, Joint, and DoD-level forums to capture strategic intent, understand mission objectives, and develop actionable IT/SATCOM strategies and courses of action (COAs).
• Translate strategic discussions into high-quality, actionable work products, moving beyond advisory dialogue to hands-on execution and technical product generation.
• Draft, refine, and finalize HQDA-level deliverables—including info and decision briefings, executive summaries (EXSUMs), and quantifiable metrics.
• Ensure produced deliverables are clear, concise, succinct, and tailored to the exact specifications and tight timelines of senior leadership.
• Present completed work products, COAs, and strategic briefings to General Officer (GO) and Senior Executive Service (SES) level leadership.
• Drive Army SATCOM modernization initiatives (including MILSATCOM/COMSATCOM integration and Commercial LEO/MEO hybridization), promoting alignment with Army SATCOM policies.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to support the strategic alignment of enterprise-level SATCOM services, verifying compliance with overarching DoD CIO and Army G-6 policies.
• Manage concurrent projects related to SATCOM while navigating the Army Staff Action process (ETMS) to ensure deliverables meet stringent quality standards.

Qualifications

• An active TS/SCI clearance.
• Bachelor's degree or higher in a technical, IT, or related field.
• Ability to thrive in a rapidly changing, fast-paced headquarters environment where priorities and tasks shift frequently.
• Minimum of 9 years of DoD-specific experience, with a strong background in DoD SATCOM (Narrowband, Wideband, Protected, Commercial) systems, enterprise architectures, and strategic priorities.
• Proven track record of capturing customer intent and turning it into polished, finished work products on tight deadlines with minimal rework.
• Ability to produce clear, concise, and succinct staff products. You must be able to translate technical concepts into actionable insights and present them confidently to senior leaders.
• Proven experience advising and collaborating directly with military leaders (O-6 and above) and SES personnel.
• Familiarity with Pentagon processes, Army tasking systems and staff action package coordination.
• Advanced proficiency in MS Office Suite, with emphasis on MS PowerPoint (for executive briefing design) and MS Excel (for data / budget analysis).
• Expertise in Enterprise Task Management Software (ETMS / ETMS2), with legacy knowledge of TMT or CATMS.

Desired

• Joint Staff, Army/Service Headquarters, or OSD experience at the O-3 to O-5 (or equivalent) level or above—specifically in roles requiring heavy staff work and brief production.
• Familiarity with the DoD Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution (PPBE) process, with specific experience assisting in Management Decision Package (MDEP) analysis, POM cycle inputs, or Army funding line track management.
• PMP, Scrum Master, Agile, CompTIA Security+.
