Be the voice of the team, collaborate with Govt and SETA mission leadership to recruit, interview, and apply staff to critical acquisition, SE and SME roles across multiple satellite missions, and implement PM guidance to execute the program.
Develop decision briefings for senior leadership reflecting deep analysis of alternative views and options. Facilitate meetings with SMEs across the program to collect input and develop selectable options.
Liaise with Prime Developer leadership to maximize information flow with Government leadership. Communicate Government priorities and concerns to Developers. Respond to help needed requests from Developers to cultivate win-win relationships.
Foster communication and alignment among team members to identify challenges and corresponding solutions.
Identify and manage risks throughout the acquisition and systems engineering lifecycle by conducting risk assessments, developing mitigation strategies, and monitoring potential impacts on mission objectives.
