The TCP, the access decisions on ITAR-controlled data, and the annual program reports carry your signature , this is not an advisory function, it is the seat of record. What you'll do Own and govern the IFED Technology Control Plan end-to-end: policy, oversight, assurance, Board reporting, and annual attestation to the GSC under DCSA FOCI guidance. Carry the trade-compliance mandate under AECA and ITAR across IFED operations; ensure compliance with BIS and DDTC regulations and guidance, including classifications, export authorizations, exemptions and exceptions.

Working knowledge of information-security controls sufficient to review access-control matrices, audit logs and assurance evidence, and to challenge implementation where evidence does not meet the standard, directs verification, does not build tooling.
