  • Develop, revise, and manage technical documentation including test plans, capability assessments, program acquisition artifacts, technical assessments, engineering reports, cybersecurity documentation, and system descriptions.
  • Draft, edit, and format formal reports, briefings, and responses for Congress, ensuring clarity, consistency, and compliance with legislative requirements and DoD reporting standards.
  • Translate complex engineering or programmatic content into accessible, high-level executive summaries suitable for congressional stakeholders and senior government officials.

  • Ensure documentation meets the requirements for classified and unclassified handling, in accordance with current policy, and applicable cybersecurity protocols.
  • Collaborate with SMEs, program managers, and technical staff to gather source material and maintain version-controlled documentation across all project phases.
  • Support the preparation of briefing materials, white papers, decision memos, and capability development documents for internal and external dissemination.

Minimum Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience drafting or editing formal reports or responses for Congress or high-level DoD oversight offices
  • Familiarity with the DoD acquisition lifecycle and test & evaluation documentation processes

  • Proficient with Microsoft Office, Adobe Acrobat, and version control / document collaboration platforms
  • Experience working with classified documents and adhering to applicable markings and controls.
  • Active Secret clearance required

    • Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience supporting TRMC, DOT&E, OSD T&E, or defense test and evaluation organizations. Highly desired familiarity with T&E events, range operations and cyber test environments.
  • Familiarity with preparing materials in support of Congressional Justification Books (CJBs), Program Element Descriptions (PEDs), or Budget Exhibit narratives.
  • Understanding of federal acquisition documentation such as program plans, capability development documents (CDD), and system performance evaluations.
