Company Overview
Metrea delivers effects-as-a-service to national security partners across five domains and more than a dozen mission areas—including airborne ISR, electronic warfare, secure communications, aerial refueling, special mission aviation, aerial firefighting, and advanced simulation.
Wherever we operate, we build vertically integrated full stacks of capability—designing, building, and operating turnkey solutions that let customers scale capacity while benefiting from continuous cycles of innovation. With operators and engineers under one roof, we close the gap between lab and field—what we call connecting design with effect.
Metrea’s solutions are built for elegance: effective, efficient, and evolving. This approach enables our partners to do more with less and achieve outsized, asymmetric advantage against rapidly evolving threats.
Headquartered in Washington, DC, Metrea has facilities across the United States, the United Kingdom, Europe, and beyond. This role sits within the Electromagnetic and Cyber Group of Metrea.
Electromagnetic and Cyber Group (EM&C) is responsible for developing flexible and survivable advanced electronic warfare and secure communications equipment while providing the industry’s leading signals intelligence, electronic warfare, and cyber experts. Metrea specializes in signal classification, direction finding, advanced geolocation techniques, and waveform development including waveforms for MANET and LPI/LPD applications. Metrea also develops special purpose radios for government customers and licenses DF and geolocation solutions to multiple OEMs.
Position Summary
As the Senior Mission Manager, you will serve as Metrea’s senior on-site representative and primary liaison to mission partners, integrating directly within customer operational and intelligence environments to support the planning, coordination, and execution of mission activities. Acting as a trusted advisor to both external partners and internal leadership, you will facilitate operational synchronization between customer objectives and Metrea capabilities while ensuring effective communication and coordination across the broader enterprise. This role requires the ability to build and maintain trusted relationships with senior leaders, operational personnel, and technical teams across both government and industry organizations while representing Metrea in sensitive operational environments.
Operating within a dynamic and evolving mission environment, the Senior Mission Manager will provide operational awareness, mission advocacy, and strategic coordination in support of ongoing and emerging activities, ensuring Metrea leadership remains informed of operational priorities, partner requirements, and developing opportunities. This position demands sound judgment, discretion, initiative, and the ability to operate effectively with limited oversight while supporting key strategic objectives and facilitating operational and technical progress across supported efforts in coordination with H/STO and Head/Electromagnetic & Cyber.
