The Site Technical Director of the Laboratory Capabilities Integration and Transition (LCIT) Team partners with the assigned Laboratory to facilitate transition of promising technologies to meet Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC) and other AF requirements. In this role the Site Technical Director works with Lab directorates, to include the Lab Technology Transition Office, on behalf of AFGSC. The Site Technical Director is the primary interface between AFGSC and the assigned Lab to identify technologies which could close warfighter capability gaps and facilitate technology transition to meet AFGSC's highest priority requirements. This position will support the Small Business Consulting Corporation mission at the assigned Laboratory. This role will supervise supporting hires for assigned locations and will coordinate across a widely geographically dispersed selectively-manned SBCC team for assistance and coordination in helping to connect promising laboratory capabilities directly with requirements when able. The Site Technical Director will also identify and facilitate transition partners, within both small business networks and broader defense contractor base, and mature cooperative opportunities to develop technology roadmaps (TRL development plans) which help close defense capability gaps. Beyond simply being a liaison, this role will additionally serve as a Subject Matter Expert and spokesman for the MAJCOM to the laboratory, as an action officer and facilitator of related solutions (part technical expert, part project manager), as an Acquisition Program Management advisor, and as an ambassador to regional businesses with whom SBCC seeks to build business relationships as we serve USG customers.
