Job Type

Full-time

The Technology Evaluation & Assessment Lead is a full-time position supporting Command Post Technologies' development, integration, operation, and continuous evolution of the Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) Pilot Site at Camp Shelby, Mississippi, and distributed environments.

This position provides analytical, technical, operational, and programmatic support to the MDO leadership team. The role serves as the lead evaluator for emerging technologies, mission command systems, and system-of-systems capabilities, responsible for planning, executing, and assessing technology integration events, interoperability evaluations, operational demonstrations, and capability assessments. Operating in an agile environment with evolving requirements, the individual helps translate operational needs into measurable objectives, develop evaluation methodologies, assess emerging capabilities, and support execution of priority initiatives.

The position requires the ability to objectively assess system performance, identify technical and operational gaps, evaluate interoperability, and provide evidence-based recommendations to support capability development, modernization, and acquisition decisions. The Technology Evaluation and Assessment Lead evaluates how systems perform both independently and as part of a larger operational architecture. This includes assessing mission command systems, intelligence systems, tactical networks, sensors, communications systems, electromagnetic spectrum capabilities, and emerging technologies across air, land, maritime, cyber, space, and electromagnetic spectrum operations.

The position combines operational assessment methodologies, test and evaluation principles, data analytics, and decision-support functions to enable rapid capability development and informed decision-making. The primary focus of this position is evaluating and assessing technology performance, interoperability, and operational effectiveness. While the position works closely with operators and stakeholders, it is not primarily a training, fielding, or instructional role.

Key Responsibilities Assessment Planning and Execution

• Support the planning, execution, and evaluation of technology integration events, interoperability assessments, operational demonstrations, and capability evaluations to determine system performance, suitability, operational effectiveness, and mission utility.
• Develop assessment plans, evaluation criteria, Measures of Performance (MOPs), Measures of Effectiveness (MOEs), success metrics, and data collection methodologies to objectively evaluate system performance.
• Develop operational scenarios, evaluation objectives, and assessment frameworks designed to validate requirements, stress system capabilities, evaluate interoperability, and identify performance limitations under operationally relevant conditions.
• Coordinate assessment activities with operators, engineers, developers, vendors, government stakeholders, and mission partners to ensure evaluation objectives are achieved.
• Support rapid prototyping, experimentation, and iterative capability development efforts through continuous assessment and performance evaluation.

Technology Evaluation and Analysis

• Evaluate system interoperability, data exchange, network performance, mission command integration, and information flow across military, government, commercial, and emerging technology systems.
• Analyze technical and operational data to assess system performance, identify capability gaps, determine root causes of deficiencies, evaluate mission impacts, and develop recommendations for improvement.
• Assess systems individually and as part of a larger system-of-systems architecture to determine operational effectiveness and integration readiness.
• Collect, analyze, and integrate data from multiple sources to support objective performance assessments and evidence-based decision-making.
• Validate system performance against operational objectives, user requirements, and intended mission outcomes.
• Support verification, validation, and operational utility assessments for technologies progressing toward operational employment.

Reporting and Decision Support

• Prepare formal assessment reports,…
