Attend external test events (flight clearances, captive‑carriage, live‑fire) and perform the necessary setup, data acquisition, and post‑test activities.
Serve as the CAM representative, presenting cost, schedule, technical risks, and opportunities to senior leadership.
Perform software and programmable‑logic integration using spread‑bench, short‑round, and specialized test equipment; troubleshoot issues as needed.
Provide regular status updates and flag blockers to upper leadership to drive timely resolution.
