Apogee is seeking a COMSAT Analyst to provide Engineering and Analytical support to the US Space Command (USSPACECOM). Support includes planning, definition, implementation, and operational management of global communications systems to yield more effective and flexible global SATCOM support.

Program: The Department of Defense’s SATCOM Enterprise is essential to global military operations and all U.S. Space Command missions, providing secure, resilient communications across air, land, sea, space, and cyber domains. It integrates Military Satellite Communications (MILSATCOM) and Commercial Satellite Communications (COMSATCOM), combining DoD-owned and commercial assets to ensure worldwide connectivity. This “system of systems” includes satellites, ground stations, and gateways, enabling mission-critical coordination in any environment. Together, these capabilities deliver the communications backbone for joint force operations and national defense. 

This is a full-time opportunity located at Peterson SFB in Colorado Springs, CO.

• Provide assistance with developing, coordinating, and executing operating concepts to protect and defend COMSATCOM systems
• Provide support for systems engineering studies, analyses, and activities, and provide support to simulations and activities to define and optimize system interoperability, security, and standardization
• Engage with the COMSATCOM Community of Interest to support EMI monitoring, detection, identification, reporting, characterization, and geographic location for current and emerging electronic warfare threats to SATCOM systems
• Support activities to maintain situational awareness of COMSATCOM capabilities available for EMI monitoring, detection, characterization, and geolocation that can be employed effectively for military operations. Provide support to analyze new capabilities to monitor, detect, characterize, and geolocate EMI in support of Space Operations
• Assist with the Government's planning and requirements definition for COMSATCOM systems and assessing satellite movements, reconfigurations, and operational impacts on current and future operations and plans related to EMI effects on COMSATCOM operations and management
• Assist in the Government's revision of plans, policies, and documentation to account for EMI operations and management requirements in support of Government operational decisions
• Provide support for coordination activities with Combatant Commands and other SATCOM users to assess availability of SATCOM resources to support operations and optimization of SATCOM resources in response to EMI activities and events
• Provide support to develop strategies to identify, characterize, geolocate, and mitigate non-hostile and hostile EMI in collaboration with the intelligence community and other COIs to ensure freedom of action in the space domain
• Document and provide statistical trends and reports on EMI events related to Commercial SATCOM
• Provide support to integrate detection and characterization capabilities into a COMSATCOM/EMI common operation picture (COP), facilitating SATCOM spectrum situational awareness, streamlining identification and reporting processes, and improving COMSATCOM interference resolution services
• Assist in the development of CONOPS, CDD, and CPD; and provide analysis, engineering, and administrative support for Annual Joint SATCOM Working Groups
