Job Description:

Job ID: 711829BR Date posted: Dec. 10, 2025 Description: The Lockheed Martin Artificial Intelligence Center (LAIC) is looking for a Technical Program Manager who will oversee Program Control, Portfolio Staffing, Capture Management, and Business Development for a team of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning engineers. The ideal candidate will possess a background in conceptualizing, building, testing, and maturing AI systems. The technical program manager (TPM) will work under the direction of the technology portfolio principal investigator (PI) to ensure flawless execution of the portfolio's strategy and programs. The TPM will have the following key responsibilities: 1. Program Control: The TPM will be responsible for monitoring technical, cost and schedule aspects for all programs in the portfolio. The TPM will coordinate with technical leads to establish plans, monitor program execution, and make adjustments in a highly dynamic research and development environment. The TPM will be responsible for all reporting requirements on programs and must develop a strong technical understanding of program content to facilitate reporting and to be the lead representative of the portfolio in meetings with internal and external stakeholders. 2. Portfolio Staffing: The TPM will be a key stakeholder in program staffing. As such, the TPM will develop an understanding of the specific technical skills and career goals of all members of the team. The TPM is not responsible for direct management of the staff, rather the TPM's knowledge is needed to ensure staffing decisions maximize a contributor's abilities and career trajectories. Maintaining strong staff retention is a key metric for the portfolio leadership team, including this role. 3. Capture Management: The TPM will manage the capture process for the portfolio. This task requires working with the BA capture team, attending capture meetings, developing LAIC cost volumes, supporting technical writing and ensuring all LAIC work products meet the highest standards. Most technical writing will be performed by technical experts on the team with the TPM responsible for ensuring work products are completed and integrated with the overall proposal. Similarly, the TPM will work with technical leads to develop statements of work, costing and bases of estimate. The TPM will own most of the cost side of proposal development. 4. Business Development: The TPM will support the development of new opportunities within the portfolio through internal and external business development. Initially, the TPM will concentrate on working to capture internal corporate and Business Area (BA) IRAD funds. This includes identifying opportunities and working the internal fund owners. The TPM will monitor government sites for relevant opportunities. As the TPM's knowledge of the portfolio deepens, tasking to meet with and shape external customers in the S&T or PoR domains will be assigned as appropriate.
