The Indo-Pacific Regional Operations Department (N554) works with the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) and the Military Service Components on-island to inform warfighter requirements and Concepts of Operation (CONOPS), and provides Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence (C4I) systems acquisition, engineering, and integration support to the Department of War (DOW) and U.S. Allies in the Pacific Theater.

N554 is a dynamic and forward leaning organization that provides direct connections to warfighters. These direct connections allow staff to monitor and participate in current operations and exercises. A key output of this access is the ability to inform technology innovation and capability analysis with operational domain expertise. N554 operational depth and warfighter access has generated considerable expertise in the development and analysis of CONOPS, mission threads, use cases, and operational requirements.

The Department establishes links between DoW sponsors and Coalition Partner development activities. N554 is on the cutting edge of current operations and is a major thought leader in force modernization.

Roles and Responsibilities:

The Indo-Pacific Regional Operations Department (N554) is seeking to fill a Lead Logistics Systems Engineer position for MITRE's project with U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) in Honolulu, Hawaii.
