The Opportunity

General Dynamics Mission Systems operates AI-enabled capabilities across multiple platforms, providers, applications, and security environments. As human and agentic usage expands, leaders and operators need timely, trusted visibility into consumption, capacity, performance, adoption, value, and financial investment.

The AI Analytics Technical Lead is a hands-on senior individual contributor who will connect governed source data, enterprise data platforms, semantic standards, and owner-approved metrics into consistent and decision-ready analytical products. The role leads technical delivery through a matrixed team without direct-report responsibility.

The role owns AI analytics integration, data contracts, shared transformations, quality controls, reporting-pipeline design, and analytical products assigned to Innovation & Engineering. It partners with, but does not replace, the teams that own Snowflake, the enterprise data warehouse, the enterprise ontology, source-application production, source systems, business metric definitions, and financial policy.

What You Will Do

• Translate AI investment and operational decision needs into phased requirements, integration architecture, interfaces, acceptance criteria, and a technical roadmap.
• Connect approved telemetry, usage, capacity, cloud billing, application, agent, identity, organization, program, and financial-reference data through governed interfaces to enterprise data platforms.
• Co-design and implement versioned data and telemetry contracts that preserve identity, application, project, program, requested and served model, provider, environment, consumption, and traceable investment inputs.
• Build analytics-ready fact models, transformations, lineage, quality controls, reconciliation, replay, recovery, and historical reproducibility on owner-approved enterprise platforms.
• Establish one governed reporting path across approved dashboards, reports, emails, extracts, alerts, and interfaces, with consistent results and visible data status.
• Implement and publish metric definitions approved by value-stream and business owners without creating conflicting local definitions or duplicate systems of record.
• Produce technical readiness evidence, including service objectives, monitoring, reconciliation, recovery tests, and rollback criteria, while source and platform owners retain production authority.
• Lead engineers, source owners, enterprise data teams, ontology owners, platform teams, security, privacy, Finance, and metric owners around a shared roadmap and evidence-based decisions.

First-Year Outcomes

• Baseline priority sources, reports, owners, definitions, interfaces, data quality, attribution coverage, reporting timeliness, and manual effort.
• Publish an approved integration roadmap, report catalog, interface requirements, acceptance criteria, and ownership map.
• Put priority integrations and reports into repeatable operation on approved enterprise platforms with automated quality, reconciliation, monitoring, and recovery evidence.
• Deliver a governed interface from an initial AI-enabled source application and reusable patterns for additional sources, with consistent operational and executive reporting across approved surfaces.

What We Are Looking For

You are a senior software, data-integration, and analytics technical leader who remains hands-on. You can build critical transformations and reporting components, lead across organizational boundaries, and explain evidence and tradeoffs to senior leaders. You know how to create a trusted path from source data to decisions while respecting platform, source, ontology, metric, privacy, and policy ownership.
