Vantor is seeking a uniquely qualified and highly experienced Specialist for Spectrum Strategy and Operations with a minimum of SECRET clearance. This hybrid role requires an individual who can both orchestrate large-scale, national-level spectrum policy initiatives and simultaneously provide hands-on, tactical spectrum management to ensure U.S. space superiority and decisive combat power.

They will be a central hub for navigating the intersection of federal agency requirements, commercial interests, and regulatory policy.

On an operational level, they will be responsible for the expert planning, coordination, and management of the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) to support space-based systems, joint military operations, and critical national security objectives. They will work in a fast-paced environment to ensure our forces have assured access to the radio frequency spectrum, free from harmful interference, enabling them to execute missions effectively across all domains.

• System Integration and Supportability:
  Manage the spectrum supportability lifecycle for new and existing systems by processing applications and certifications through the End-to-End Supportability System (E2
  
  ESS).

• Compliance and Regulation:
  Ensure all spectrum-dependent systems and operations comply with national (NTIA), international (ITU), and Department of War (DoW) regulations and policies.

• Secure Operations:
  Conduct all necessary planning, coordination, risk assessment, and data management tasks on secure networks to support classified missions and operations.

Required Qualifications

• Security Clearance: A minimum of an “active”
  SECRET security clearance is required.

• Minimum of 7-10 years of combined experience in large-scale program management and/or military electromagnetic spectrum management.

• Must have current and authorized access to SIPRNET.

• Tool Proficiency:
  Demonstrated, hands-on experience with the following spectrum management tools:
