Mark Kirkman Email & Phone Number

I am a motivated, personable, and adaptable individual. I have experience in managing and executing flight test programs as well as leading integrated product teams. I am currently a mechanical systems engineer for the A-10 System Program Office broadening my career experience in the sustainment engineering realm. I am, however, transitioning to the end of my service commitment and want to return to my passion in integration and test.I truly enjoy flight test because I am involved in leading-edge technology that directly supports the warfighter and their duty of defending our country. I was a flight test engineer for 4 years at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, where I got to lead a 13-member team of test professionals that plan, execute, and report on the integration and testing of F-15C acquisition programs valued over $615M. Additionally, I managed the F-15C Infrared Search and Track (IRST) test program and utilized my communication and analytical thinking skills to expedite the test schedule by 4 months by providing an approval briefing to the Pentagon.I am ready to continue my career in integration and test and believe with my skillset and active TS/SCI security clearance that I can prove to be an asset to any test team.
