I’m Christine Miguel, a business professional with more than 15 years of experience at Jet Propulsion Laboratory (NASA/JPL) and Northrop Grumman. My background spans government contract pricing, proposal development, finance, project controls, and supply-chain procurement.
I’ve led cost volume development for multibillion-dollar missions—including Europa Clipper, SPHEREx, Mars Sample Return, and the Deep Space Network—coordinating engineers, scientists, and business teams to deliver accurate, compliant proposals. Known for analytical rigor and a process-improvement mindset, I streamline workflows, manage complex budgets, and build strong vendor and stakeholder relationships while maintaining full compliance with NASA and FAR/DFARS.
This blend of pricing, controls, and supply-chain expertise lets me deliver strategic value and practical solutions across aerospace and defense environments.
Outside of work, I recharge with my husband and our two daughters—swimming, cheering on weekend soccer games, bike rides around the neighborhood, and sampling every ice-cream shop we can find.
Jet Propulsion Laboratory (February 2016 through Present)
Pricing & Proposal Analyst | Government Contracts | Subcontract & Procurement Support
At JPL, I lead the cost volume strategy for NASA and non-NASA proposals—guiding engineers, scientists, and buyers in building compliant BOEs, analyzing risk, and negotiating subcontract inputs for multi-billion-dollar missions. I act as the team’s go-to resource for government-contract policy, process improvements, and day-to-day procurement support.
Northrop Grumman (May 2010 through February 2016)
Proposal Analyst | Business Management | Supply Chain Procurement | Project Controls
At Northrop Grumman, I drove end-to-end proposal pricing and supply-chain procurement: issuing RFQs, negotiating price and terms under FAR/DFARS, and building SAP cost structures that fed project controls and EAC reviews. The role gave me a 360° view of contracts, business management, and supplier performance on major aerospace and defense programs.
