About Catherine Collier

I’m currently a Project Engineer supporting Lockheed Martin’s Enterprise Business & Digital Transformation (1LMX) — a sweeping, company-wide modernization effort that’s reshaping how Lockheed Martin operates across every business area. In this role, I help enable the transition to next-gen digital systems, data continuity, and model-based processes that will define the future of aerospace and defense.I came to Colorado to work on missions to Space — and now I’m helping modernize the digital backbone that gets us there.Before joining Lockheed Martin, I worked as a Quality Engineer in high-volume medical device manufacturing at Aptar CSP Technologies, where I owned end-to-end product quality across raw materials, production, inspection, and final shipment decisions. In a fast-scaling environment, I led root cause investigations, implemented statistical controls, partnered with operations and suppliers, and ensured product met both regulatory and customer requirements. That experience built my foundation in data-driven problem solving, cross-functional leadership, and lifecycle accountability.I’m driven by complex problems, high-impact work, and engineering that moves organizations — and people — forward.
