Define and influence long-term technical roadmaps for software frameworks, reference architectures, interface architectures, data models, real-time execution approaches, modular reuse, and digital engineering practices across the relevant portfolio.
Drive technical strategy, trades, and risk-reduction plans across the engineering lifecycle—from concept exploration through design, development, integration, verification, test, certification, deployment, and fielding support.
Provide technical leadership on critical programs and captures, including solution development, technical differentiation, architecture maturity, and alignment to customer mission needs.
Establish and champion best practices for translating operational and systems-level requirements into robust software blueprints, interface definitions, open-architecture implementation strategies, and reusable implementation patterns for mission-critical environments.
Lead trade studies on open architecture, software partitioning, hosting strategies, latency, scalability, cybersecurity, fault tolerance, processor utilization, deployment topology, and lifecycle affordability in operationally relevant environments.
Requirements
Bachelor's in a relevant STEM degree
Master's in a relevant STEM degree
PhD in a relevant STEM degree
Nice to have: Advanced degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Software Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Physics
