• Establish and control functional, allocated, and product baselines for hardware, firmware, software, and technical documentation throughout the system lifecycle.
• Ensuring compliance with DoD and Army standards (e.g., ANSI/EIA-649, MIL-HDBK-61A, DFARS technical data rights) while supporting rapid prototyping, experimentation, and fielding of mission-critical capabilities.
• Collaborating closely with software developers, systems engineers, and Army program offices to translate technical requirements into controlled, auditable configurations that support mission success.
• Maintain configuration status accounting records, including as-designed/as-built documentation, version control logs, traceability matrices, and configuration reports for program leadership and government stakeholders.
• Manage release and delivery of configuration-controlled items, ensuring proper versioning, labeling, archiving, and distribution in accordance with contract deliverables and CDRL requirements.
• Support rapid prototyping, experimentation, and fielding events by maintaining configuration control during iterative development, testing, and integration phases.
• Identify and implement process improvements to enhance CM efficiency, reduce risks, and align with evolving Army modernization priorities (e.g., digital engineering, Model-Based Systems Engineering).
• Conduct Functional Configuration Audits (FCAs) and Physical Configuration Audits (PCAs) to ensure implemented system conforms to approved specifications and documentation.
• Manage and maintain the program's CM tool suite for software, hardware, and all associated documentation.
