• Provide senior technical direction on Radar/RF phenomenology collection methodology mission processing and operational performance.  

• Perform enterprise-level requirements development definition decomposition traceability validation and technical closure activities.  

• Evaluate Radar/RF system capabilities across tasking command and control collection mission processing and dissemination.  

• Conduct architecture analysis trade studies and solution alternative assessments for GEOINT space and ground systems.  

• Analyze mission processing approaches designed to mitigate radio frequency interference and improve radar processing outcomes.  

• Perform RF engineering assessments related to system resiliency jamming resistance operational effectiveness and mission assurance.  

• Support user needs analysis capability gap assessments and solution alternative evaluations to inform Government investment and technical decisions.  

• Coordinate systems integration strategy readiness planning and end-to-end mission and services closure across complex mission systems.  

• Identify and resolve technical risks opportunities dependencies and enterprise-level impacts across programs and stakeholders.  

• Advise senior Government SETA FFRDC IC DoD and industry stakeholders on technical strategy mission impacts and engineering priorities.  

• Mentor multidisciplinary engineering teams and ensure the quality consistency and technical credibility of engineering products.
