Mr. Privitera was the lead engineer for several integrated flight test events as part of the Ground-Based Midcourse Defense (GMD) system engineering group. He led teams to develop system solutions on technical and non-technical critical path issues, ranging from test schedules to component integration. He achieved balanced system solutions by analyzing model and simulation results, element capability requirements, and test requirements. He conducted analyses and developed alternate program execution plans when necessary to maintain test objectives, test schedule, knowledge points and milestones.Mr. Privitera produced the integration strategy and technical objective products for GMD systems engineering.
