clearance.\n\nPreferred Qualifications\nMaster's degree in a relevant technical, engineering, analytical, or business discipline.\n\nExperience supporting Department of Defense logistics, sustainment, supply chain risk management, defense industrial base, or contested logistics missions, including familiarity with relevant DoD data environments and enterprise systems.\n\nExperience architecting solutions that leverage modeling and simulation, optimization, graph analytics, supply chain risk intelligence, digital twins, or AI-enabled decision-support capabilities.\n\nDemonstrated success developing technical solutions that contributed to federal contract wins, customer expansion, technology adoption, or the development of repeatable commercial or government offerings.\n\nExperience with technology product development, platform integration, technical roadmap planning, and collaboration across distributed engineering, product, and program delivery organizations.\n\nTarget salary
