Stacey Dixon, the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/intel-geoint\/2019\/05\/09\/ngas-new-deputy-director-is-a-familiar-face\/\"> deputy director<\/a> for the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, will also be nominated as principal deputy director at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ratner worked for Biden in the Senate, and later served as Biden\u2019s deputy national security adviser during the Obama administration; he has been expected to receive a top national security job. He joined the department as Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin\u2019s special assistant on China, and in that capacity has been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/pentagon\/2021\/02\/10\/biden-announces-new-pentagon-china-task-force\/\">leading a DoD-wide review<\/a> on military posture for countering Beijing.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/defensenews\/pentagon\/2019\/10\/01\/the-pentagon-has-created-a-new-office-solely-focused-on-china-is-that-a-good-idea\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/china_parade.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">The Pentagon has created a new office solely focused on China. Is that a good idea?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">The creation of a deputy assistant secretary of defense for China is supposed to help the Pentagon focus on its long-term competitor. But it could create more problems than it solves.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dixon has held a number of positions in the intelligence community since 2003. She worked on advanced satellite systems for the Central Intelligence Agency\u2019s directorate of science and technology from 2003 to 2007, and then went to work for the U.S. House of Representatives Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. In 2016, Dixon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/video\/2017\/09\/07\/iarpas-stacey-dixon-on-tech-priorities-and-continuing-resolutions\/\">joined IARPA<\/a>, the intelligence community\u2019s research arm, as their deputy director on a joint duty assignment before being named director in August 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ratner\u2019s nomination marks the 8th individual named as a nominee for DoD jobs in the last two and half weeks. It comes the same day as Colin Kahl, the administration\u2019s nominee to be undersecretary of defense for policy, moved in the Senate despite Republican opposition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On April 2, the White House announced Michael Brown, the head of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/interviews\/2021\/01\/11\/defense-innovation-unit-chief-on-keeping-the-office-relevant\/\">Defense Innovation Unit<\/a>, as the nominee for undersecretary for acquisition and sustainment, the Pentagon\u2019s top weapons buyer; Ronald Moultrie for the job of undersecretary for intelligence and security, the top civilian intelligence role at the Pentagon; and Mike McCord as the Defense Department\u2019s top financial official. McCord\u2019s nomination was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/pentagon\/2021\/04\/02\/mccord-expected-as-comptroller-nominee-sources-say\/\">first reported<\/a> by Defense News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then last week, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/breaking-news\/2021\/04\/12\/white-house-set-to-nominate-first-woman-secretary-of-the-army\/\">White House announced<\/a> Christine Wormuth for Army secretary, the first time a woman has been nominated for that role. Gil Cisneros was nominated to be undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness, while Susanna Blume was tapped to head the Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation office, known as CAPE. Days later, Mara Karlin <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/pentagon\/2021\/04\/16\/mara-karlin-selected-to-lead-pentagon-strategy-office\/\" target=_blank>was selected<\/a> as the assistant
