Capture Portfolio Analyst, X-BAT Family of Systems (FoS) (R6011)

Job description

As a core member of the X-BAT FoS Capture team, you will partner closely with the X-BAT FoS Capture Organization to maintain a high-confidence view of the current and future opportunity pipeline and assist in driving decisive action across the portfolio. You will turn pipeline data into actionable insights that inform prioritization, resource decisions, revenue planning, and long-term growth strategy.

This role owns the integrity and quality of X-BAT FoS portfolio pipeline information in Salesforce and related reporting tools and will establish the standards, review the data for completeness and credibility, identify gaps or inconsistencies, and drive corrective actions across the portfolio.

Job responsibilities

  • Maintain an integrated view of the X-BAT FoS opportunity pipeline across near-term, mid-term, and long-range pursuits.
  • Analyze opportunities using criteria including timing, estimated value, probability of win, market attractiveness, strategic relevance, expected revenue contribution, and resourcing requirements.
  • Partner with the X-BAT FoS Capture Organization to identify priority opportunities, inform portfolio trade-space decisions, and recommend actions to strengthen the pipeline.
  • Track changes in opportunity value, timing, stage progression, probability of win, customer funding, and other factors that affect forecast confidence.
  • Identify pipeline gaps, timing shortfalls, concentration risks, single-point dependencies, and opportunities that lack sufficient capture activity or next steps.
  • Recommend actions to create pipeline resilience, including alternate pursuits, adjacent customers, related mission areas, acquisition pathways, partner opportunities, and additional sources of demand.
  • Maintain a forward-looking view of the X-BAT FoS opportunity space across a multi-year horizon and help identify and track actions needed to mature early opportunities into successful capture efforts.
  • Serve as the X-BAT FoS Capture organization’s lead for pipeline-data integrity, reporting standards, and Salesforce opportunity-management discipline.

Job requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree with 8+ years of relevant experience, Master’s degree with 6+ years of relevant experience, or PhD with 3+ years of relevant experience.
  • Experience in business development, capture, sales operations, program management, finance, consulting, or another analytical operating environment.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, including the ability to evaluate incomplete or changing data and develop clear, actionable recommendations.
  • Experience using Salesforce to analyze opportunity data, maintain pipeline visibility, develop reports or dashboards, and support business-planning decisions.
  • Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint, including development of concise analyses, trackers, dashboards, and briefing materials.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage data quality, establish reporting standards, and coordinate updates across multiple record owners or stakeholders.
  • Experience evaluating opportunities based on timing, value, probability, customer funding, strategic relevance, and expected business impact.
  • Experience leading and delivering cross-functional deliverables, decision points, and follow-up actions across multiple concurrent efforts.
