About The Position

KBR is seeking an Acquisition Decision Support and Data Analytics Specialist to support acquisition decision-making and data analytics. The position is described as working with a high-performing multidisciplinary team supporting defense and national security missions. The posting's role description also discusses modeling, simulation, and analysis of emerging operational concepts, including mission engineering and kill chain and kill web analyses for combatant commands and Department of War stakeholders. The selected candidate will support study planning and execution, contribute technical recommendations, develop models and experiment designs, collect data, and produce analytical products and reports. The work includes characterizing architectures and concepts with military subject matter experts, instantiating combat systems, platforms, behaviors, kill chains, command-and-control relationships, and scenario-specific factors in simulation environments, and coordinating focused tasks across multidisciplinary teams.

The qualifications section requires knowledge of RFO principles and federal procurement cycles, at least five years of experience in contract administration, procurement assistance, or proposal preparation, and experience supporting multiple contract vehicles. The position is on-site, has standard working hours, and requires an active Top Secret clearance with SCI eligibility.
