• Facilitate secure delivery and testing of AI-enabled training systems for C2BMC users
• Provide weekly status updates and collaborate with infrastructure personnel to maintain progress

Required Skills/Experience:

Desired Skills:

• Experience supporting missile defense, C2BMC, or classified training systems
• Exposure to GPU-backed AI/ML workloads and containerized model deployment
• Knowledge of the MDA Software Assurance process and EMASS documentation handling
