CWMD & Defense Capabilities Analyst – Pentagon Proposal

Overview

We are building a talent pipeline in support of an upcoming A10 contract proposal, with anticipated work beginning in August 2026. These positions will support mission‑critical efforts related to Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosives (CBRNE) operations, nuclear deterrence, counter‑WMD policy, medical/biological defense, and advanced modeling & simulation. Work will be performed on‑site at the Pentagon, pending award. Candidates must be eligible to obtain and maintain the appropriate security clearances required for each position.

Contract Type:
Proposal Pipeline – Positions contingent upon contract award.

Location:

Pentagon, Washington, D.C. (subject to award).
