- Lead development and validation of NATO TTPs and SOPs covering ADOPT tools, data, and analytics, including integration with the UDL and GDM
- Serve as the operational bridge between U.S./JCO and NATO structures, translating JCO operational experience, procedures, and lessons learned into the NATO context
- Establish and maintain the maintenance process for NATO tactical procedures, ensuring CONOPS, TTPs, and SOPs remain current as ADOPT capabilities evolve
- Provide functional direction to the Operations Specialist, serving as the senior point of accountability for the operations integration team

About the Role
As the Operations Integration Lead, you guide the NATO Space Centre through the development of NATO-specific CONOPS, TTPs, and SOPs for the ADOPT solution, leveraging JCO operational experience to bridge U.S.-to-NATO integration. The role’s near-term focus is establishing NATO’s own operational procedures for ADOPT, spanning ADOPT, UDL, and GDM integration, and maturing them into an enduring organic capability, with continuing integration work as NATO’s commercial space enterprise grows.
Why This Role Matters
The Operations Integration Lead determines whether ADOPT arrives at NATO as an operationalized capability or merely as delivered software. By translating proven JCO operating concepts into NATO-specific procedures suited to the NATO Space Operations Centre, this position ensures NATO operators can employ commercial SDA capabilities within their own command relationships, battle rhythm, and doctrine from day one.
This role offers an opportunity to define how NATO conducts commercial SDA operations, directly shaping the CONOPS, tactical procedures, and U.S.–NATO operational relationships that will outlast the transition period itself.
