SWE Boston May Professional Development Meeting
“Do what you like, like what you do”
Sponsored by:
The MITRE Corporation
SWE Boston invites all members to attend Deb Schuh’s insightful presentation on how to discover what motivates you - whether it’s in the work environment or outside- and how to use those experiences to build your skills in the work place. Deb will also share her personal experiences that led her to her current role, from a female STEM perspective. Ms. Deb Schuh is the Portfolio Director for the Air Force Material Command portfolio in the National Security Engineering Center of the MITRE Corporation. In this role, she is responsible for developing and executing a MITRE work program focused on interoperability, integration and cybersecurity across several procurement organizations within the United States Air Force. She is also responsible for international program development for air command and control and communications capabilities for United States foreign partners. In her spare time, Deb is the president of the New Hampshire Science and Engineering Expo.

About Our Speaker
Ms. Deb Schuh is the Portfolio Director for the Air Force Material Command portfolio in the National Security Engineering Center of the MITRE Corporation. In this role, she is responsible for developing and executing a MITRE work program focused on interoperability, integration and cybersecurity across several procurement organizations within the USAF. She is also responsible for international program development for air command and control and communications capabilities for US foreign partners.
Previously, Ms. Schuh has held roles ranging from oversight and execution of MITRE’s USAF Contract, consisting of more than 200 programs in support of the Air Force, to Chief Engineer of one of the USAF’s largest intelligence programs, the Distributed Common Ground System. She has developed expertise in tactical intelligence systems and processes, satellite communications systems, integrated intelligence and air operations, and most recently system security engineering and resilience.
Her interest in cross-domain issues between Intelligence and Operations led her to conduct operations research with “executable” architecture for assessing the performance of intelligence functions within the USAF Air Operations Center (AOC). This research not only verified the utility of the architectural approach, but also resulted in changes to USAF systems and processes used in today’s AOC.
Deb received her Masters of Science in Computer Engineering from Boston University in 1988 and her Bachelor of Science in Computer Science Engineering from Northwestern University in 1982.
