MATLOK Innovation is seeking a Digital Transformation Lead to provide Systems Engineering and Technical Assistance (SETA) support to a Department of War (DoW) customer. This role will lead the planning and implementation of organizational digital transformation, combining technical expertise with the ability to guide teams, improve mission processes, and deliver measurable results. This position is contingent upon funding and customer authorization.

Working directly with government leadership and technical teams, you will translate a multi-year transformation roadmap into prioritized initiatives, achievable milestones, and practical technical solutions.

This position requires active technical and team leadership. You will coordinate work across disciplines, clarify responsibilities and dependencies, resolve technical challenges, and communicate progress and recommendations to government decision-makers. You will also help personnel adopt new tools and ways of working through practical guidance, training, and collaboration. Success will be measured by capabilities that are implemented, used, and demonstrably improve mission execution.

We are looking for candidates with substantial relevant professional experience or a combination of relevant experience and technical education. Candidates should demonstrate both the ability to deliver technical improvements and experience leading teams or coordinating complex technical efforts. Strong engineering judgment, clear communication, and the ability to guide organizational change are essential.
