What You’ll Get To Do:

Serve as the project lead of the Condition-Based Maintenance Plus Prognostics Analytics Toolset (CBM+ PATS) team.

The individual will be responsible for applying data science and engineering principles to develop a data architecture in support of several flavors of predictive maintenance models on hundreds of unique WS components with potentially thousands of serialized instances of each component. The individual will coordinate closely with the Reliability and Maintenance-Cost (RAM-C) team in support of CBM+ architecture delivery by WS Critical Design Review (CDR), and predictive model delivery on Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) selected components by System Quality and Verification Review (SQVR). In addition to applied data science principles, the individual is expected to have a strong background in project management, project execution, strategic planning, and both customer and executive-facing presentation skills.

Some key responsibilities will be to:
 - Develop a data architecture in support of predictive modeling for a large-scale WS designed to operate for 40+ years.
 - Conduct a literature review to become a primary CBM+ PATS Point of Contact (POC) for the program.
 - Refine the CBM+ roadmap up through WS CDR and SQVR (currently slated for 2028 and 2032 respectively). 
 - Ensure project execution is mapped to the Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) and Integrated Master Plan (IMP).
 - Assign and manage tasking of a team of 5+ data scientists, data engineers, and software engineers to meet critical program milestones.
 - Refine CBM+ project requirements in the Sentinel Statement of Work (SOW) and Weapon System Specification (WSS).
 - Collaborate with DE data scientists to define a common data architecture across SDS.
