  • Support grant applications, white papers, and internal review processes
  • Track proposal metrics and develop process improvements for future submissions

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Communications, Business, or related field
  • 3-6 years of experience in proposal writing or management (aerospace, defense, or technology preferred)
  • Strong writing, editing, and organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail
  • Understanding of federal acquisition and funding mechanisms (NASA, DoD, SBIR/STTR, etc.)
  • Ability to manage multiple deadlines and coordinate cross-functional input
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite and Adobe tools; experience with proposal management platforms a plus
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-accountability environment

Benefits

  • Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
  • Retirement Plan (401k, IRA)
  • Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D)
