- Monitor subcontractor progress, confirm required deliverables are submitted on time, and address issues that could affect technical performance.
- Partner with functional leads to develop estimate-at-completion projections and provide regular forecasting updates for leadership review.
- Lead performance reviews, evaluate program risks, and implement mitigation strategies to improve delivery outcomes.
- Contribute to capture efforts and proposal development for new opportunities within the defense portfolio.
- Work with leadership to support budgeting, staffing plans, and profitability tracking across assigned programs.
- Facilitate program management reviews, customer-facing discussions, and other contractual meetings to maintain clear communication and execution discipline.
- Advance the integration of operational and program data to improve visibility, decision-making, and audit preparedness.
- Coach project leaders and cross-functional team members to strengthen execution practices, accountability, and compliance standards.
