Identify, assess, and manage technical risks, opportunities, issues, assumptions, and dependencies that may impact engineering execution, technical maturity, cost, schedule, or program milestones.

Manage technical dependencies associated with customer-furnished information, source data, system interfaces, requirements maturity, supplier deliverables, and other inputs required to support engineering execution.

Coordinate across Software Engineering, Specialty Engineering, Product Support, Cybersecurity, Product Lifecycle Management, Program Management, suppliers, and other stakeholders to ensure alignment of technical activities and program objectives.

Ensure engineering specifications, architecture artifacts, interface documentation, requirements baselines, verification artifacts, test documentation, and other technical deliverables meet contractual, customer, DoD, and organizational requirements.

Serve as a primary engineering interface with customers and stakeholders, communicating technical status, risks, requirements, design maturity, integration strategy, and corrective actions.

Support supplier and subcontractor technical management, including requirements alignment, technical reviews, deliverable assessments, integration planning, and resolution of technical issues.
