• Implement workflows, fields, and board configurations to support requirements development, design, integration, and test activities.

• Compile and deliver recurring status reports and metrics (e.g., backlog health, action item aging, burndown/burnup charts, milestone tracking) for program leadership and stakeholders.

• Lead process improvement initiatives for data management and task tracking, recommending and implementing enhancements to better support hypersonics development and test activities.

• Ensure documentation and data-handling activities comply with DoD security, data management, and information assurance requirements, including proper handling of CUI and FOUO data.

• Collaborate closely with engineering, test, logistics, and program management personnel to ensure data management practices directly support program execution needs.
