MTSI is seeking an Engineer SME to support AFLCMC/WA at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio. The successful candidate will provide engineering expertise in direct support of an Integrated Capabilities Team (ICT), a horizontally oriented team responsible for aligning, integrating, and synchronizing capabilities across multiple platforms. This role supports new and ongoing AFLCMC/WA Fighters and Advanced Aircraft projects and requires engagement across all aspects of the acquisition lifecycle, including technology development, engineering integration, program control, foreign disclosure, test and deployment, configuration management (CM), production and manufacturing, quality assurance, and logistics. The ICT environment requires candidates capable of applying strong engineering principles in a cross-platform, enterprise-focused context rather than traditional single-platform stovepipes. Ideal candidates will demonstrate mastery of the DoW acquisition process, as well as deep knowledge on current and future activities including studies and initiatives.
