Additionally, you will work to improve coordination with DoD combat support agencies and interagency partners, while aligning nuclear surety capabilities to address various threats in theater alongside regional and international counterparts.

As a key contributor to the CBRN defense and nuclear policy team, you will provide expert advice and guidance on nuclear, CBRN defense, and arms control matters, leveraging your experience advising senior military officers. You will facilitate the creation and implementation of nuclear surety and policy initiatives, analyze deterrence and defense issues to enhance force posture and readiness, and contribute to nuclear operations planning.

Your role will involve strengthening strategic deterrence posture through multinational, multi-command, and joint coordination, while developing frameworks to onboard new partners and stakeholders into existing policies and programs.

Additionally, you will support certification and training processes related to nuclear surety, provide insights to inform senior-level decision-making, and collaborate with diverse teams to achieve shared objectives. You will also develop and review technical reports, security plans, and policy documents, ensuring compliance with federal, state, local, and NATO regulations, while staying informed on advancements in nuclear technology, policy, and security.
