Job Description
Overview
Systems Planning and Analysis, Inc. (SPA) delivers high-impact technical solutions to complex national security issues. With over 50 years of business expertise and consistent growth, we are known for continuous innovation for our government customers, in both the US and abroad. Our exceptionally talented team is highly collaborative in spirit and practice, producing Results that Matter. Come work with the best! We offer opportunity, unique challenges, and clear-sighted commitment to the mission. Objective. Responsive. Trusted.
The AUKUS, Submarines, and Industrial Base Group (ASIG), within the Sea, Land, Air Division, provides timely, objective, analytic assessments that integrate technical, operational, programmatic, policy and business analysis to Director Submarine Program directorates and key stakeholders surrounding submarine platform construction. Director Submarine Program unifies submarine platform procurement activities, which includes the Columbia-class SSBN program (a Major Defense Acquisition Program and the Navy's top acquisition priority), the Virginia-class SSN program, the new SSN-X program (developing the next generation attack submarine), and the AUKUS Integration and Acquisition Office, to bring improved capabilities to our undersea forces. Analysts and Engineers supporting Director Submarine Program will continue SPA's decades of support to the SSBN force, as well as supporting oversight of cutting-edge attack submarine construction, assisting in developing the design requirements for the SSN platform of the future, and helping plan and execute new and innovative strategies to strengthen the critical submarine shipbuilding industrial base. These are high-profile, major acquisition and manufacturing programs of significant importance to the future capabilities of the US Navy in an era of renewed strategic competition.
Responsibilities
The candidate's primary responsibility will be serving as a program and maintenance requirements analyst providing direct contractor support for the trilateral security partnership between Australia, the United Kingdom (UK), and the United States (AUKUS). The primary focus of this role is heavily centered on analyzing, developing, and managing the submarine maintenance program requirements for establishing and sustaining the Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard Detachment Stirling (PDS) at HMAS Stirling in Western Australia.
The candidate will ensure that maintenance capabilities and infrastructure are fully prepared and scaled to support the Forward Deployed Naval Forces (FDNF) SSNs operating out of HMAS Stirling as part of the Submarine Rotational Force - West (SRF-W) initiative. This involves acting as the primary liaison working directly for U.S. Pacific Fleet (COMPACFLT) N43 Fleet Maintenance Officer to ensure Type Commander (TYCOM) requirements are satisfied. Furthermore, the candidate will be responsible for ensuring that all Joint Fleet Maintenance Manual (JFMM) requirements for the Fleet Commander are strictly adhered to throughout the maintenance lifecycle of deployed assets. Secondary responsibilities involve integrating strategic planning milestones (, IOS, FOS), supporting expeditionary docking demonstrations (SWARM), and establishing foundational environmental compliance frameworks for in-water services.
