The position provides technical leadership, independent engineering judgment, and quality assurance across the full acquisition life cycle, including requirements verification, test planning, resourcing, execution, analysis, reporting, and readiness assessments. The engineer will establish and lead the program's T&E strategy and processes; develop test plans, requirements, procedures, schedules, and technical reports; and plan and execute CONUS and OCONUS flight-test events for all CAML munition types. The position integrates government, developer, range, and test-organization activities; translates senior-leadership requirements into executable test programs; and delivers executive briefings addressing progress, results, readiness, risks, deficiencies, and recommendations. Responsibilities include independently developing and executing test scripts and procedures; compiling, documenting, and running automated and regression tests; validating that system capabilities satisfy business and technical requirements; developing and maintaining test-control databases; managing test data and ensuring its integrity and currency; tracking defects through resolution; and communicating test plans, issues, and results to analysts, developers, programmers, government stakeholders, and leadership. The engineer will provide quality assurance for system changes and software releases, support release-management activities for changes to the baseline IT infrastructure, and ensure compliance with established processes throughout the project lifecycle. The position will document existing processes, recommend improvements, update process documentation, and communicate process changes to affected stakeholders. The engineer will also support training and publications teams by providing accurate technical content informed by system requirements, test results, and verified system performance. The successful candidate will independently perform all assigned functional duties, resolve complex technical and programmatic challenges, establish effective T&E processes within a newly formed project office, and produce defensible assessments that support acquisition decisions, system readiness, and future releases. This senior position may oversee the work of less senior personnel and may be responsible for the performance of all staff assigned to a specific task or project. The position requires frequent application of technical standards, principles, and theories and supports high-visibility or mission-critical aspects of the CAML program. ## Related Videos - [Are Classical Automation Frameworks Dead?
