• Identify authoritative data sources, publishers, subscribers, and consumers within the tactical data enterprise.
• Develop future-state architectures to support new C2 capabilities, mission applications, and AI-enabled systems.
• Analyze the operational impact of adding, modifying, or removing TDL-connected nodes.
• Maintain Interface Control Documents (ICDs), connectivity matrices, and system interface documentation.
• Coordinate with government, contractor, and operational stakeholders to ensure consistent implementation of tactical data exchange architectures.
• Collaborate with USPACOM J6 stakeholders, service components, mission partners, and GDIT team members to resolve technical challenges.
