- Release & Airworthiness Management: Drive the planning, technical documentation, and execution necessary to secure Software Safety Releases, Urgent Materiel Releases (UMR), and flight/test safety approvals for test launches and operational fielding.
- HWIL & Software Testing Oversight: Guide Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) simulation development, software test plans, test execution, and verification across classified and unclassified environments to validate system readiness.
- CONOPS & Architecture Alignment: Participate in Concept of Operations (CONOPS) formulation and ensure software architecture, interface control documents (ICDs), and message formats align with overall launcher and missile system requirements.
- Contractor Delivery & Technical Oversight: Monitor and evaluate contracted software development deliverables, technical milestone progress, and integration risks, ensuring contractor activities support Product Office schedule and technical objectives.
