  • Ensure all written content is compliant with solicitation requirements and aligned with win strategies and evaluation criteria.
  • Participate in solutioning sessions, storyboarding, and content planning to frame responses around customer needs and pain points.
  • Support pink team and red team reviews, incorporating feedback and ensuring consistency, clarity, and quality of written materials.
  • Develop and maintain a library of reusable content and proposal writing tools/templates to improve efficiency and quality over time.
  • Stay current on industry trends, best practices in proposal writing, and customer mission areas.


Required Qualifications:
