About Steve Baldwin

With nearly 30 years of experience in business development and government engagement, I apply a business development mindset and an understanding of Federal acquisitions (particularly in the SBIR/STTR realm) to accelerate innovation and technology transfer for the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Space Force. I plan, execute, and refine acquisition program requirements though multiple phases of the acquisition life cycle and develop Air Force-level strategy, guidance, and study documents. I develop acquisition planning documentation, statements of work, and requests for proposal documents, and evaluate contract deliverables for DAF acceptance. I drive business acceleration in areas which align with the Air Force Research Laboratory\'s (AFRL) technical directorates and maintain a Secret Clearance.Healthcare and Human Performance> Training> Adaptive Warfighter Interfaces> Bioeffects> Bioengineering> Aerospace & Operational MedicineAirframes and Propulsion> Aerospace Vehicles> Control, Power, & Thermal Management> High-Speed Systems> Rocket Propulsion> Turbine EnginesDirected Energy and Munitions> Laser Systems> Weapons Modeling> Simulation & Analysis> High Power Electromagnetics (HPEM)> Directed Energy & Electro-Optics for Space SuperiorityInformation Technology and Cyber> Processing & Exploitation> Connectivity & Dissemination Autonomy> Command & Control and Decision Support> Cyber Science and TechnologyMaterials and Manufacturing> Structural Materials> Functional Materials> Manufacturing Technology> Support of OperationsSensors> Radio Frequency (RF) Sensing> Electro-Optical (EO) Sensing> Specgrum Warfare> Trusted & Resilient Mission Systems> Multi-Domain Sensing Autonomy> Enabling Sensor Devices & ComponentsSpace> Advanced Space Resilience Technologies> Space Communication & Navigation Technologies> Space Awareness and Command & Control> Space Environment
