  • Provide forward-looking perspectives on how markets and competitors are evolving
  • Identify, screen, and prioritize growth opportunities using structured frameworks
  • Lead analytical efforts to validate early-stage opportunities, including market sizing, demand analysis, and risk assessment
  • Partner with Business Development to refine pipeline strategy and focus resources on the highest-value pursuits
  • Support development of business cases for new investments, partnerships, or capability expansion
  • Integrate internal and external data sources to identify patterns, trends, and strategic insights
  • Build models, dashboards, and visualizations that enable ongoing decision support
  • Apply advanced Excel and, where applicable, BI or data tools to improve analytical rigor and scalability
  • Leverage AI-enabled tools to accelerate research, synthesis, and insight generation
  • Develop executive-level briefings that clearly translate analysis into recommendations and trade-offs
  • Support strategic planning cycles, including long-range planning and growth initiatives
  • Support cross-functional stakeholders in shaping growth strategies
  • Enable leadership with fact-based perspectives on where to invest, partner, or compete

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, Economics, Data Analytics, or a related field
  • 3–5 years of experience in cross-functional project roles, business analytics, or information systems.
  • Demonstrated ability to independently structure complex problems, conduct analysis, and deliver clear, actionable insights.
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint.
  • Proven ability to communicate insights to senior stakeholders and influence decisions
  • Experience working in cross-functional, matrixed environments

Nice-to-haves

  • Experience in aerospace, defense, or other regulated/government markets
  • Familiarity with U.S. defense budgeting, acquisition processes, and customer landscape
  • Experience with BI/analytics tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau) or programming (Python, SQL)
  • Exposure to AI-enabled analytics or automation tools
  • Experience supporting strategy development, portfolio management, or growth initiatives
  • Understanding of competitive intelligence methodologies and frameworks

Benefits

  • Flexible Work Schedules
