Deployment Strategist

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING
Lead on-site discovery and operational workflow mapping to translate Unified Network Operations (UNO) / Tactical Network Operations (TNO) SOPs, TTPs, and Operations Orders (OPORDs) into executable engineering briefs. Identify high-value opportunities for Generative AI and low-code/no-code dashboards to streamline operational planning and mission-dependent network visualization. Partner with Forward Deployed Engineers and subcontractor teams to coordinate the ingest, federation, and data modeling of specialized initialization data (IRIS), spectrum allocations (JRFL), and satellite authorizations (SAA/GAA). Validate and deploy scalable software architectures and secure multi-echelon agent infrastructures (LNCC, DIV, BCT, and BNs) optimized across SBU-E, XLESS, and SIPR enclaves. Lead high-impact training and unit installation support directly with operational forces, ensuring rapid adoption during major validation milestones and tactical exercise environments. Present compelling demos, briefings, and technical proposals to audiences ranging from junior analysts to senior executive leaders. Partner with senior stakeholders to assess opportunities for product development and employment against operational requirements.

WHAT YOU HAVE DONE
Applied systems engineering or technical coordination processes to map Statement of Need (SoN) requirements into agile product development, user stories, and system architecture artifacts . Hands-on operational experience with network management, tactical communication frameworks, and command and control interoperability tools, including MAVEN, NGC2, INB2, Terminus, and Tactical Assault Kit (TAK). Ability to solve open-ended problems in unstructured environments with a low-ego, mission-first mindset. Proven track record authoring technical documentation, embedded system help, and configuration guides that enable novice operators to successfully install and maintain complex network software nodes.

EVEN BETTER
Advanced AI and technical skills, including experience with agentic workflows, RAG, vector databases, and model orchestration in air-gapped environments. Prior military service as a senior NCO, Warrant Officer, or Commissioned Officer (especially in a technical leadership position at a DIV/BCT or higher level).
