• Interface directly with Materiel Leaders, Chief Engineers, Foreign Military Sales (FMS) organizations, and other senior-level stakeholders to analyze program requirements and challenges, identify cross-program dependencies, and recommend actionable solutions to drive enterprise alignment across the international portfolio.

• Collaborate with government, industry, laboratory, and operational stakeholders to analyze technical alternatives and promote alignment across programs and mission areas.

• Assess technical risks, integration challenges, dependencies, and engineering tradeoffs associated with the development, integration, and transition of capabilities that support international partners and defense cooperation initiatives.

• Support the development of technology roadmaps, integration strategies, and modernization approaches that improve interoperability and support exportable architectures.

• Develop and brief technical products, engineering analyses, and decision support products that inform the directorate’s Capability Trade Council (CTC) activities and senior leader decision-making.

• Analyze emerging threats, operational needs, technology trends, and international capability requirements to identify capability gaps and inform long-term modernization and investment strategies across the portfolio.

• Ability to travel up to 10% (CONUS).

To be successful in this role, you will have:

• An active TOP-SECRET security clearance with the ability to obtain and maintain Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) and access to Special Access Programs (SAP) and have a background investigation current within the past 5 years or under Continuous Vetting

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering with a minimum of 15 years relevant engineering experience in the Department of Defense/Department of War (DoD/DoW), other government agency, or DoW contractor
