Program Overview

About The Role

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:

Come join a flexible and responsive IT environment to quickly meet evolving and changing mission priorities for an IC customer. Mission operations supported include strategic and tactical intelligence analysis and integration; screening, vetting, and watchlisting; situational awareness; and strategic planning. Operate and maintain the IT environment, integrate new systems into the environment from separate developers, design, develop, and implement enhancements to the IT environment that will provide the stability and flexibility required to meet mission needs and support other mission partners. Follow a DevSecOps execution model that integrates services, hardware, software, and data support; incorporates new sources; maintains ingestion services as formats/schemas change; improves throughput and efficiency; develops and deploys self-service tools to exploit and use data more quickly, thoroughly, and robustly; and manages compliance requirements as may be necessary to satisfy service, application, tool, data, and other IT mission needs. Though the majority of applications have been migrated to the cloud, there are multiple independent on-premises networks. Maintain hardware and network connections inside the enclaves and other external mission partners; most of all servers are virtualized.

Applicant will:

• Analyzing user's requirements, concept of operations documents, and high-level system architectures to develop system requirements specifications
• Analyzing system requirements and leads design and development activities
• Guiding users in formulating requirements, advising alternative approaches, and conducting feasibility studies
• Providing technical leadership for the integration of requirements, design, and technology. Incorporates new plans, designs and systems into ongoing operations
• Developing technical documentation
• Developing system Architecture and system design documentation
• Guiding system development and implementation planning through assessment or preparation of system engineering management plans and system integration and test plans.
• Generate alternative system concepts, physical architectures, and design solutions
• Define the methods, processes, and evaluation criteria by which the systems, subsystems and work products are verified against their requirements in a written plan
• Develop system design solution that satisfies the system requirements and fulfills the functional analysis
• Review and provide input to program and contract work breakdown structure (WBS), work packages and the integrated master plan (IMP)
• Participate in the development of system engineering documentation, such as System Engineering Plans, Initial Capabilities Documents, Requirements Specifications, and Interface Control Documents
• Participate in interface definition, design, and changes to the configuration between affected groups and individuals throughout the life cycle
• Derive, from the system requirements, an understanding of stakeholder needs, functions that may be logically inferred and implied as essential to system effectiveness
• Derive lower-level requirements from higher-level allocated requirements that describe in detail the functions that a system component must fulfill, and ensure these requirements are complete, correct, unique, unambiguous, realizable, and verifiable
• Participate in establishing and gaining approval of the definition of a system or component under development (requirements, designs, interfaces, test procedures, etc.) that provides a common reference point for hardware and software developers
• Develop derived requirements for Information Assurance Services (Confidentiality, Integrity, Nonrepudiation, and Availability); Basic Information Assurance Mechanisms (e.g., Identification, Authentication, Access Control, Accountability); and Security Mechanism Technology (Passwords, cryptography, discretionary access control, mandatory access control, hashing, key management, etc.)
