Olsen serves as a Contracting Specialist within the FA4427 60 Cons Lgc unit of the Department of the Air Force, where he manages the acquisition of specialized medical, technical, and demonstration equipment critical to air force training, medical readiness, and public engagement missions. His portfolio centers on procuring electromedical instruments, surgical supplies, analytical laboratory systems, and aeronautical instrumentation, ensuring operational units are equipped with mission-critical capabilities.
