Credence has an immediate need for a Detroit Arsenal Liaison Officer (DTA LNO) to serve as the onsite representative for Project Manager Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PM PNT), providing integration support across the Detroit Arsenal enterprise.

Operating with a high degree of autonomy, the DTA LNO builds and maintains collaborative relationships with host-platform program offices, local prototyping facilities, technical teams, and senior leaders. The position is focused on accelerating capability fielding, reducing integration costs, identifying emerging risks, and resolving technical, schedule, funding, organizational, and process-related friction.

The successful candidate will be a proactive relationship-builder who can represent PM PNT's priorities, navigate complex acquisition and integration environments, and identify issues before they affect program cost, schedule, or performance.

• Represent PM PNT at applicable host-platform Configuration Control Boards, working groups, technical interchange meetings, integration meetings, and recurring program synchronization events
• Communicate PM PNT's technical, cost, schedule, and integration priorities to host-platform stakeholders
• Maintain awareness of host-platform decisions and activities that could affect current or future PNT integrations
• Ensure relevant decisions, risks, action items, and stakeholder concerns are communicated promptly to PM PNT leadership

• Identify unreported or emerging schedule delays, funding changes, technical risks, resource constraints, and stakeholder concerns before they reach formal reporting channels
• Evaluate the potential effect of identified risks on program cost, schedule, technical performance, and fielding objectives
• Provide clear, concise, and actionable risk information to PM PNT leadership
• Recommend appropriate mitigation strategies, leadership engagement, or follow-up actions

• Assess host-platform workflows, approval processes, integration activities, and coordination practices
• Identify process inefficiencies, unnecessary handoffs, duplicative efforts, and avoidable delays
• Develop targeted recommendations to reduce non-recurring engineering costs, improve coordination, shorten integration timelines, and accelerate capability delivery
• Support implementation and evaluation of approved process improvements

• Recognize situations in which unresolved friction or program risk requires O-5/O-6-level engagement
• Coordinate face-to-face discussions between…
