How can I utilize my system engineering and program management skills to further your business goals?

Experience:
I have over thirty years of experience in life-cycle systems engineering and program management on diverse and complex programs. I have twenty-five years of direct support within the Intelligence Community across multiple SIGINT disciplines including COMINT, FISINT and ELINT.  I have significant experience with definition, design, development, integration, testing and deployment of SIGINT systems built using signal processing frameworks (including MIDAS), with system/subsystem deliveries to over twenty different locations worldwide. I have an active TS/SCI clearance with current CI polygraph.

I have applied my systems engineering and program management skills across spiral/agile and traditional design methodologies, with significant experience in the development of rapid prototypes and proof-of-concept capabilities.

I have senior management experience as the Chief Technical Officer for a small business supporting the Intelligence Community. In addition, I have served as the lead system engineer across a number of Intelligence Community programs. In these capacities, I have interacted with senior Government customers, end users, contractors and corporate management.  

I have experience in all aspects of proposal generation including opportunity qualification, pursuit and capture. My proposal generation capabilities include proposal management, requirements analysis, design synthesis, proposal writing, review coordination/participation and costing. I have participated in a number of team proposal efforts 
with both small and large businesses.
