From humble beginnings as an intern, to becoming a champion, mentor, and coach for emerging engineering talent, Lisa Chamberlain's career is a true inspiration.
Over a span of two decades she has progressed through various technical and management roles at Lockheed Martin.
Currently, she is a systems engineering manager with Lockheed's Rotary and Mission Systems (RMS), formerly known as the Mission Systems and Training (MST) business unit.
The RMS portfolio features hundreds of programs, including helicopters, integrated air and missile defense, littoral warfare, undersea warfare, radar, electronic warfare, command, control, communications, computers (C4) Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), cyber solutions, and training and logistics systems.
Lisa leads the training and learning management system on F-35 as the integration project team lead and is also a first line manager for RMS Integrated Engineering.
She excels at delivering products while mentoring and coaching emerging engineering talent. Due to her success, Lisa has been selected to coach two integration project team leads in an adjacent market segment.
Recently, Lisa led an initiative to transform her team into a T-Shaped engineering model, which resulted in a four-fold increase in productivity and performance.
This was achieved by identifying each team member's core and adjacent technical strengths and developing a visual model to show their growth paths.
Lisa has been a champion for Agile development methods and digital transformation, leading initiatives that introduced new technology and generated cost and schedule savings.
