Technology Evaluation & Assessment Lead

The Technology Evaluation & Assessment Lead is a full-time position supporting Command Post Technologies development integration operation and continuous evolution of the Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) Pilot Site at Camp Shelby Mississippi and distributed environments.

This position provides analytical technical operational and programmatic support to the MDO leadership team. The role serves as the lead evaluator for emerging technologies mission command systems and system-of-systems capabilities responsible for planning executing and assessing technology integration events interoperability evaluations operational demonstrations and capability assessments.

Operating in an agile environment with evolving requirements the individual helps translate operational needs into measurable objectives develop evaluation methodologies assess emerging capabilities and support execution of priority initiatives. The position requires the ability to objectively assess system performance identify technical and operational gaps evaluate interoperability and provide evidence-based recommendations to support capability development modernization and acquisition decisions.

The Technology Evaluation and Assessment Lead evaluates how systems perform both independently and as part of a larger operational architecture. This includes assessing mission command systems intelligence systems tactical networks sensors communications systems electromagnetic spectrum capabilities and emerging technologies across air land maritime cyber space and electromagnetic spectrum operations.

The position combines operational assessment methodologies test and evaluation principles data analytics and decision-support functions to enable rapid capability development and informed decision-making. The primary focus of this position is evaluating and assessing technology performance interoperability and operational effectiveness. While the position works closely with operators and stakeholders it is not primarily a training fielding or instructional role.
