Fielded Force Analyst
About The Position
KBR is seeking a collaborative, analytical, and emotionally intelligent Fielded Force Analyst to bridge complex astrodynamics and engineering analyses with strategic force design. The analyst will gather and synthesize studies from across the space enterprise, identify operational gaps in the fielded force, and develop clear, actionable recommendations for senior U.S. Space Force leaders. The role emphasizes building trusted relationships and influencing the future design and integration of the Space Force, in addition to analyzing data. The analyst will serve as a central point for turning analytical findings into operationally relevant insights. This includes assessing differences between the current fielded force and the planned programmed force across key USSF mission areas, coordinating with military, mission partner, and international staffs, and communicating complex technical and modeling information through briefing slides, decision memoranda, and recommendations. The position is on site, requires minimal travel, and has standard 40-hour workweeks. Candidates joining KBR's Mission Technology Solutions business before its planned spin-off are expected to transition to Trinzic when the separation is complete without needing to reapply.
