Lead development and integration of products and technologies within intelligence systems programs for government and industry partners.
О компании
- Intelligence Systems (AIS) is focused on positioning as a lead provider of specialized engineering and products for Intelligence Community (IC) customers. We work within the IC to understand their requirements, shape their concepts of operation, and deliver exquisite capability across their problem set. We aim to develop and deploy critically needed capabilities that address our customers’ most pressing national security requirements. ABOUT THE JOB As an AIS Technical Program Manager, you will lead the development and/or integration of products and technologies with various government and industry partners. These projects will be diverse in nature and require you to be organized and flexible to adapt to changing situations. On one project, you may be working with the customer to clarify how each of its mission requirements can be met through 's core products, including the plan, scope, and work required. In another situation, you may be helping to craft a vision with the customer or participating in technical working groups with a collaborative set of engineers to transform that vision into an operational reality. During all this, you must be able to successfully work with both external and internal stakeholders, communicate plans clearly to all parties, and support and coordinate across teams to achieve the desired end state. Success in this position also hinges on two key facets: 1) systems and engineering mindset—the ability to understand and
- In AIS, our TPMs are high-agency leaders who bridge the gap between complex engineering and mission execution. Operating at the intersection of hardware and software, TPMs do not just track tasks—they actively drive the development, testing, and deployment of cutting-edge technologies at insane speed. Day in and day out, we expect our TPMs to act as force multipliers vice passive coordinators. They possess a deep technical baseline that allows them to challenge engineering assumptions, speak the language of developers and hardware designers, and relentlessly focus on delivering our life-saving capabilities to the warfighter. Our TPMs own the following core responsibilities: Drive Cross-Functional Execution:
- Orchestrate the end-to-end path to flight/fielding, driving alignment across structural, electrical, GNC, autonomy, and payload teams from blank-sheet architecture through Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) testing and range operations.
- Act as the connective tissue across deep domain experts; aggressively uncover and resolve interface mismatches, boundary disputes, and integration gaps before they become program-halting blockers.
- Bridge the gap between disparate engineering cycles—aligning rapid, iterative software sprint releases with long-lead mechanical fabrication, PCB spins, and integration milestones to ensure continuous delivery.
