@josefgreen
I lead defense installation and modernization programs, aligning cyber, infrastructure, and stakeholders to deliver mission-ready outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I’m a defense program and installation leader with 15 years of experience delivering mission systems from planning through execution, testing, acceptance, sustainment, and closeout. I manage multi-site work valued at approximately $1M each, translate technical and schedule requirements into aligned stakeholder action, and keep operations moving by resolving installation issues, synchronizing sustainment, and tracking milestones and dependencies.
In recent roles, I’ve served as lead networking and cyber security support for UK mission efforts, integrated resilient replacements for legacy electronic security components using Agile and Scrum, and maintained IDS/ACS/TASS/Vindicator equipment to contract requirements in overseas environments. I’m known as a trusted liaison across commanders, government stakeholders, OEMs, contractors, and technical teams—bringing budget-conscious planning, risk/resource management, and documentation discipline to modernization and cyber/infrastructure outcomes.
