  • Follow established configuration control, documentation workflows, and quality processes in accordance with AS9100 and ISO 9001 practices.

  • Develop illustrations, diagrams, and supporting artifacts to enhance the usability and clarity of technical publications.

  • Develop workbooks and work procedures for obsolescence repair support and mitigation.
  • Edit and format final deliverables for consistency, grammar, and compliance with Army style guides (e.g., DA PAMs, MIL-STDs, TM formats).

  • Protect all sensitive information in accordance with non-disclosure and security requirements.

Minimum Education & Experience Requirements
  • Bachelor of Science in a relevant field of study (e.g., Technical Writing, Engineering Technology, Communications, or related discipline).

  • Eight or more years of experience in general business, technical composition, or documentation development.

  • Ten years of experience in military technical writing with demonstrated knowledge of Army technical manual standards, formats, and sustainment processes.

Additional Required Qualifications
