Acquisition Program Analyst, Senior

Job Description

Job Description

Who We’re Looking For (Position Overview):

Do you want your acquisition expertise shaping a Marine Corps command-and-control portfolio rather than sitting in a briefing binder? As a Senior Acquisition Program Analyst supporting PM MAGTF C2 at Quantico, you will advise the Portfolio Management and Solutions & Integration Teams on the principles, policies, and practices of systems acquisition under the DoD Adaptive Acquisition Framework. You will be the voice senior leadership turns to when a strategy has to hold up to Federal, DoD, and DoN scrutiny. Our team is built on giving experienced analysts real influence over portfolio-level decisions from day one.

What Your Day-To-Day Looks Like (Position Responsibilities):

• Provide advice and recommendations on systems acquisition and program management in the development and execution of the DoD Adaptive Acquisition Framework. 

• Gather, analyze, and measure the effectiveness, efficiency, and productivity of MAGTF C2 programs, including compliance with U.S. Code, FAR/DFARS, DoD, and DoN acquisition policy. 

• Plan, research, and assess MAGTF C2 acquisitions across development, production, and deployment; draft plans and recommend strategies that meet cost, schedule, and performance objectives. 

• Develop and revise acquisition reports and documents required by Federal, DoD, and DoN reporting requirements, in coordination with Government counterparts. 

• Support program management reviews and senior-level meetings, developing briefings and schedules of program status and acquisition tasks, and prepare Bi-Weekly SITREP inputs with an executive summary. 

What You Need to Succeed (Minimum Requirements):

• Demonstrated history of delivering acquisition strategy, documentation, and senior-level analysis for DoD ACAT programs — 12 years' relevant experience per the Staffing Matrix. 

• Bachelor's degree. 

• Active DoD Secret clearance with ADP-II/IT-2 (T-3) eligibility; able to obtain SIPRNet access. 

• Working command of the DoD Adaptive Acquisition Framework (DoDI 5000.02) and Federal/DoN acquisition policy. 

Ideally, You Also Have (Preferred Qualifications):

• Defense Acquisition Workforce certification (Program Management, Advanced) or PMP. 

• Prior support to a USMC or Navy program office, ideally within Marine Corps Systems Command. 

• Comfort operating inside a Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) portfolio — PI planning, epics, capability roadmaps. 

• The kind of writer who can turn a messy staff action into a clean decision brief.
