Expert Level Zero Trust Integration Systems Engineer

Are you seeking a Systems Engineering challenge to enable NGA to achieve a mature Zero Trust framework by integrating system capabilities from the following seven pillars: user, device, data, application/workload, network/environment, visibility and analytics, and automation and orchestration? Look no further! As an expert systems engineer you will provide technical expertise and guidance to include articulating risks as NGA transforms to Zero Trust.

Expert Systems Engineers assist in leading engineering teams in taking a multi-discipline approach to requirements engineering, solutions engineering, scheduling, reliability, resiliency, services development, integration, test and evaluation, maintainability and analysis across the National System of Geospatial-intelligence (NSG), Allied System of Geospatial-intelligence (ASG) and Federal Agencies to ensure timely and accurate GEOINT.

Duties include:

• Provides expert advice to the Government in the areas of relating vision, strategy, plans, needs, requirements, and process and capability developments.
• Assists the Government in strategic technical planning, project management, performance engineering, risk management and interface design.
• Demonstrated knowledge of the current NSG/ASG and NRO enterprises.
• Assists the Government in the capture and translation of mission and customer requirements/needs into systems/capability requirements and solutions.
• Assists the Government in directing requirements engineering, solutions engineering, scheduling, reliability, resiliency, services development, integration, test and evaluation, maintainability and analysis across the National System of Geospatial-intelligence (NSG), Allied System of Geospatial-intelligence (ASG) and Federal Agencies.
• Assists with the planning, analysis/traceability of user requirements, architectures traceability, procedures, and problems to automate or improve existing systems and review cloud service capabilities, workflow, and scheduling limitations.
• Operates at the level of integrating multiple Major Systems Acquisitions across organizational, agency, department, and governmental/national boundaries.
• Supports the analyses and allocation of requirements to systems architecture components and executing programs.
• Assist in leading Analysis of Alternatives (AoAs), Course of Actions (CoAs), Trade Studies, and Engineering Assessments.
• Advises the Government on proposed changes to the solutions designs based on analysis of requirements and new technology.
• Assists the Government in performing systems integration activities.

Required:

• Experience engineering solutions using Cloud Based Technology such as: Service Orientated Architecture (SOA), On-demand self-service, Broad network access, Resource pooling, Rapid elasticity, Measured Service, Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).
• Master’s degree in Systems Engineering or in related technical or scientific fields such as engineering, physics, mathematics, operations research, engineering management, Computer Science, Information Technology, Management Information Systems, or related STEM degree program, or equivalent Expert level experience as a Systems Engineer.
• Experience engineering solutions using Automation, Augmentation and Artificial Intelligence technologies.
• 18+ years Expert working experience in government or industry in relevant work areas including: DoD/IC Acquisition Process, Requirements Process, PPBES Process or system engineering of large complex System of Systems or Service Oriented Architecture/Cloud environments.
• Extensive work experience in the field of geospatial intelligence.
• Experience with and strong understanding of systems engineering lifecycle.

Desired:

• Licensure as a professional engineer.
• Working knowledge of Model Based Systems Engineering, processes, tools and languages.
• Software Development Framework certification.
• INCOSE Expert System Engineering Professional (ESEP) certification.
• Doctorate in Systems Engineering or in related technical or scientific fields such as engineering, physics, mathematics, operations research, engineering management, Computer Science, Information Technology, Management Information Systems, or related STEM degree program.
• Experience integrating with cybersecurity services across any of the Zero Trust seven DoD ZT pillars: user, device, data, application/workload, network/environment, visibility and analytics, and automation and orchestration.
