Create Interface Change Proposals when appropriate to address shortfalls found in the MIL STD due to test and evaluation analysis.
• Review newly drafted versions of MIL STDs (with incorporated changes) and find incorporation errors and provide correct bit level formats, verbiage, or notations to achieve intended objectives. Draft MIL STD versions are released on average, every three years.
• Draft Technical Information Design Plan-Test Edition (TIDP-TE) documents for new TDL capabilities, that provide a basis for formal US MIL STDs, STANAGs, ATDLPs or APPs. Draft TIDP-TE documents are produced on average, once every five years.
• Review Information Support Plans (ISPs) posted to the JASM web site, to verify the correct MIL STD references are noted. Coordinate with USAF requirements and program offices to provide technical TDL expertise to facilitate TDL integration into USAF platforms and systems. Participate in reviews and development of operational concepts and architectures that use existing and emerging capabilities to achieve USAF platform
  objectives. May include Integrated Product Teams (IPTs) and other working groups to address specific technical and operational issues. Review and comment on documents submitted to ACC/A5J for coordination.
• Research and gather information to develop Background Papers, staff studies, Talking Papers, or presentation materials as assigned by the Government

• EDUCATION: Master's degree from an accredited university
• EXPERIENCE LEVEL: At least five (5) years' experience working with Tactical Data Link (TDL) Military Standards in support of integrating a TDL onto a platform.
• OTHER: A rated Fighter pilot or EWO/WSO. Experience as a TDL System software developer or engineer implementing TDL Military Standards on systems is beneficial - AF Operational Experience as an AFSC 1C5 or 13B will also enhance a candidates value to the customer.
