• Lead the design of component-level solutions and ensure that abstract requirements are successfully translated into executable, traceable designs
• Oversee the integration of Python-based automation within the MBSE lifecycle to streamline data analysis and model validation
• Ensure all technical outputs align with client mission objectives and contractual milestones
• Manage team capacity and the allocation of engineers across various sessions and retrospectives
• Act as the primary technical point of contact for clients, translating complex modeling data into clear, actionable stories for non-technical leadership
• Directly supervise and coach early-career Solutions Engineers, providing guidance on technical tools and professional technical communication
• Conduct regular 1-on-1s, perform evaluations, and foster a culture of continuous learning and feedback

• Systems Thinking: Demonstrated ability to view problems through a holistic lens to understand how individual components affect the total system performance.
