Senior Secure Facilities Program Advisor – MILCON Program Manager

Location: Wright-Patterson AFB, Dayton, Ohio

Employment Type: Full-Time

Clearance: Active Top Secret clearance with SCI eligibility/access required

Program: National Space Intelligence Center (NSIC)

Focus: DoD MILCON / ICD 705 Secure Facility Program Management

Position Summary

Cornerstone Signals & Cyber Technologies LLC has significant experience supporting the defense and intelligence communities and understands the specialized mission environment at Wright-Patterson AFB. Cornerstone is excited for the opportunity to support the National Space Intelligence Center (NSIC) as it expands its facilities and capabilities in support of U.S. Space Force intelligence mission requirements.

To support this effort, Cornerstone seeks an experienced Senior Secure Facilities Program Advisor – MILCON Program Manager at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio.

This position does not perform construction activities. The Program Manager represents the Government mission customer by translating operational requirements into actionable MILCON requirements, coordinating complex technical and programmatic issues, assessing risks, and ensuring facility decisions remain aligned with NSIC mission needs.

The Program Manager operates at both the technical project and senior executive levels and communicates complex engineering and MILCON issues in clear, concise terms.

• Apply detailed knowledge of USACE A/E and contracting processes throughout project planning and execution.
• Review program schedules, design milestones, construction progress, technical issues, proposed changes, and emerging requirements.
• Assess cost, schedule, performance, technical, security, integration, and mission risks and recommend mitigation actions.
• Evaluate the impact of design and construction decisions on NSIC mission capabilities and operational requirements.
• Facilitate requirements reviews, design reviews, project meetings, technical interchange meetings, and senior leadership reviews.
• Track technical issues, decisions, dependencies, risks, action items, and Government-directed changes through resolution.
• Coordinate secure-facility requirements with communications, IT, physical security, intelligence systems, mission systems, and other facility disciplines.
• Identify conflicts between facility, construction, security, and operational requirements and develop recommended courses of action.
• Translate complex engineering and technical information into clear language for Government leaders and non-engineering stakeholders.
• Develop executive-level briefings, decision papers, program assessments, schedules, risk analyses, and status reports.
• Brief and coordinate with base, MAJCOM, Headquarters Air Force/Space Force, Congressional, Government, and private-industry stakeholders as required.
• Maintain continuity and traceability between NSIC mission requirements, project decisions, and the capabilities delivered through the completed facility.
