Lead continuous improvement and modernization initiatives, including AI adoption, DevOps, and verification and validation (V&V).
Evaluate and promote engineering tools, techniques, and technologies that improve quality, execution, and competitiveness.
Support the identification, escalation, and mitigation of significant technical, operational, and organizational risks.

Business Leadership

Coordinate software engineering participation in proposal development, bid reviews, customer engagements, and strategic pursuits to align technical solutions and cost estimates with customer needs and business strategy.
Partner with engineering, program, product development, operations, and business development leadership to align priorities, resource requirements, and technical capabilities.
Manage assigned operating and overhead budgets, support annual forecasting, and recommend spending priorities and capital investments.
Oversee the facilities, engineering tools, and infrastructure used by the team, and develop and recommend business cases for capability improvements.
Support the protection of intellectual property, including patents, trade secrets, and proprietary information.
Contribute to departmental strategic priorities, objectives, and performance metrics, and lead team-level transformation initiatives
