Job Description

We are seeking a PROGRAM ANALYST to assist the Department of the Navy (DON) Spectrum Relocation Fund (SRF) Program Officials in WASHINGTON, DC.

The Commercial Spectrum Enhancement Act of 2004 created a forward-looking spectrum clearing and reallocation framework for the federal government, converting several bands of spectrum previously used by federal agencies to commercial use. A component of the act, the Spectrum Relocation Fund (SRF), funded by auction revenues, serves as a centralized and streamlined mechanism for federal agencies to defray the costs associated with relocating to new bands or alternative technologies. The Spectrum Relocation Fund Office in Washington, D.C., supports a multitude of U.S. Navy programs which are impacted by the selling of federal spectrum. Some Navy systems include Aeronautical Mobile Telemetry, Shipboard Communication Systems, and RADAR systems. Through existing Engineering Support Services support provided to NAVSEA-05H, the VTG SRF Support Team assists Department of the Navy (DON) SRF Program Officials with monitoring various transition efforts, both vacating/relocating to another viable spectrum band, and maintaining spectrum access while implementing spectrum sharing. This support includes scheduling and attending meetings, providing technical support to the government customers in OPNAV and NAVSEA, tracking the program’s schedules and technical progress, and ensuring completion of efforts according to the delineated plans and within budget. Where do you want your future to take you? If it’s to making a difference, an impact, and your own personal contributions to excellence, come aboard!
