Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems, (On Loan Integration and Test) Program: US Patriot Crypto-Comms, Aug. 2012 – Dec. 2016, System Engineering Manager Responsible for integrate and sell-off the US Patriot Crypto logical Communication upgrades which replaces decommissioned encryptors by NSA. This effort includes updating the PIDS, identifying applicable requirements, developing the requirement verification metrics, developing sell-off approaches, collaborating with the engineering disciplines to develop sell-off artifacts, identifying test equipment, conducting hardware integration, developing test procedures, dry-run and baseline test procedures, conduct IR8 and TRR, conduct sell-off testing, develop and submit sell-off report. I’ve contributed across all areas, with a focus on the requirement the verification matrix, supporting hardware integration, and test procedures development and dry-run. I developed eight test procedures, which have been peer reviewed and blessed by the customer (LTPO). They continued to be dry-run and refined in preparation for sell-off.

Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems, Systems Engineering Sr Manager Program: UAE Patriot BMC4I Sell-Off, Aug. 2011 – July 2012 Responsible for working in a highly diverse team environment with a focus on developing Verification Summary Sheets (VSS) and obtaining internal (Technical Lead and SME) and external customer

(LTPO approval on a short timeline. This effort included using analyzing existing data/information to develop verification approaches, filling in the gaps with follow-on testing, resolving requirement issues, developing deviation and waivers, and resolving Run and customer action items. This task often required the team to close action items from the previous blitz while developing VSS for the next blitz. As an analyst and an integrated member of this team, my contributions were essential to the success of the team (e.g., rectifying hardware and requirement incompatibilities). We consistently exceeded expectations and our processes were documents in a Six Sigma project. Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems, Sr Program Manager (On Loan Department Staff) Program: Special Projects – Missile Defense Center (MDC) Aug 2010 – Feb 2012 Staffing Management

Leveraging off the existing infrastructure, I developed concepts to effectively identify track and communicate existing and needed staffing resources the Missile Defense Center’s (MDC) “By-Name” staffing requirements. Collaborating across multiple functional organizations and Programs Office, I was able to refine the existing infrastructure to meet the MDC staffing organizational requirements. These concepts significantly reduce the time require by the department / section manager to allocate and accurately track their staff’s work assignments, durations, and transition plans to new assignments. Eventually, a “Missile Defense Staffing Summary” report was used to support QBARs and PMRs. Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems, Sr Program Manager Program: DD(X), Information Operations (IO) July 2003 – Aug. 2010 System Integrator I organized and lead the development of the IO Critical Concept of Engagements (CCOEs) with the primary goal of developing the shipboard IO operational consistent with the CONOPS and the incremental verification of the system / subsystem architecture system/subsystem requirements, and provide supporting analysis. I collaborated with internal and external customers and resources to facilitate the development of CCOEs: (1) developed text narratives to ensure consistency w/ CONOPS,

(2) developed CCOE-to-Segment requirement (3) then decompose and allocate these requirements to corresponding subsystems within each segment. Throughout this effort the system design was in a state of flux as the CONOPS and the system specification changed (dynamics in customer’s requirements),

(4) perform requirement functional and performance analysis to determine requirement achievability, and (5) provide ongoing analysis to identify insufficiencies and opportunity to improve the DDX mission effectiveness analysis. “DOORS” OOD activity and sequence diagrams were used to document and communicate IO design for insertion into program’s design records and to facilitate ongoing analysis leading to a successful PDR.

LOCKHEED MARTIN, Syracuse NY, Airborne Radar Program Management Program: Radar Modernization Program, E-2C Hawkeye, May 2001- June 2003 Program Manager

This was a two phase multi-billion dollar program with NGC Bethpage to modernize the E-2C’s radar. As the program manager, I lead contract negotiation totaling ~$28M with prime contractor and two subcontractors, and lead program execution from proposal development (Sole Source) through Phase I completion. The first phase (12 month PoP) focused on supporting NGC in the development in the radar portion of the Weapon System and Radar Segment Specification, and the radar segment system engineering design. This effort included baselining the program in MPM schedule and corresponding budget, and tailoring the exiting policies and procedures to track and manage program cost, schedule, technical, & risk. Program’s key Formal Reviews consisted of Program Kick-off, IBR, PMRs, SRR, & Program Close-out. Periodically, Program Directives were developed, and internal and external PMRs conducted to report Cost/Schedule/Technical/Risk progress. Technical requirements maintained in DOORS, EVMS in MPM, Schedule in MS Project, and Risk in Risk Radar. At contract completion, the program was rated green technical, cost, and schedule, and approved for Phase II initiation. LOCKHEED MARTIN, Syracuse NY, Electronic Warfare Systems Engineering Program: AIEWS /AN/BLQ-10, Dec 1998 – April 2001 Unit Manager As the Functional Manager for Electronic Warfare, I regularly meet with program management to identify staffing shortfalls and skill deficiencies. I hire, manage, evaluate, and influence the professional development of 21 EW systems engineers, and I participate in salary, unit succession, and business strategic planning activities. I work with several internal organizations to identify, develop and secure the necessary resources (e.g., training, engineering tools, etc.) for each employee to be successful in their assignment(s). I provide leadership over the course of their assignments, and I frequently meet with senior management to exchange information on the latest EW program events, business policies and procedures, engineering improvement initiatives, and organizational changes. In addition to my technical assignments, I encourage and promote high performance & positive behaviors, ensure adequate & sufficient engineering resources, address staffing availability, and embrace & share the value of professional development.

MOTOROLA, Phoenix Arizona, Space and Systems Technology Group Program: Government Satellite Systems, May 1996 – Nov. 1998, Lead I&T Engineer As the lead I&T engineer, I planned, organized, implemented, and coordinated subsystem and system I&T activities among a core staff of fifteen engineers and technicians.
