Systems Engineer – Level 3 (TJSE2/3-JV100-009)
We are seeking a Software Engineer – Level 3 to lead the development of comprehensive SOA solutions and provide technical direction for complex system architectures. In this role, the candidate will be responsible for designing, optimizing, and integrating advanced software and hardware systems in alignment with DoDAF standards and mission-critical requirements.
The candidate will conduct end-to-end system trade analyses, develop system design alternatives, and use validated models, simulations, and prototyping to mitigate risk and reduce development costs. Additionally, you will play a key role in configuration management, ensuring effective control over evolving system components and documentation throughout the lifecycle.
As a subject matter expert, you will participate in Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) efforts, recommending optimal solutions based on technology feasibility, life-cycle cost, and risk assessment. They will also monitor risks using earned value management (EVM) data, ensuring projects stay on track with strategic objectives.
This role requires strong leadership, deep technical expertise, and a proactive problem-solving mindset to drive system performance, integration strategies, and interoperability. The candidate will work closely with cross-functional teams to define interfaces, enforce industry standards, and enhance overall system efficiency.
Job Description:
Tasks Performed:
• Develop comprehensive SOA solutions
• Develop operational view, technical standards view, and system and services view for architectures using applicable DoDAF standards
• Conduct and/or approve end-to-end system trade analyses to optimize system operations over its life-cycle through the proper balance of non-functional system performance areas
• Use validated models, simulations, and prototyping to mitigate risk and reduce cost of system development
• Ensure effective, periodic review and control of the evolving configuration of a system, both hardware and software components and associated documentation, during the life of the system
• Serve as a member of the CCB
• Develop system design alternatives that consider life cycle cost, reuse, complexity, risk, system expansion, and growth
• Develop alternative courses of action, workarounds, and fall-back positions with a recommended course of action for each risk, and monitor and re-evaluate risks at appropriate milestones. Monitors risks using earned value management (EVM) data
• Maintain knowledge of current and evolving agency, national, and international standards applicable to the system development of interest. Apply and enforce use of suitable standards to ensure consistency and interoperability of developer hardware and software
• As a participant within an Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) effort, recommend a preferred solution based on selection criteria adjusted for reasonableness and validity of assumptions, technology limitations, environmental impact, and life-cycle costs
• Provide technical direction for the development, engineering, interfacing, integration, and testing of all components of complex hardware/software systems to include requirements elicitation, analysis and functional allocation, conducting systems requirements reviews, developing concepts of operation and interface standards, developing system architectures, and performing technical/non-technical assessment and management as well as end-to-end flow analysis
• Improve standard integration strategies based upon rationale for previous decisions that resulted in improved integration performance
• Fully define interfaces in terms of origination, destination, stimulus, and data characteristics for software; and electrical and mechanical characteristics for hardware
Education, Experience and Qualifications:
• Minimum High School Diploma/GED with at least 25 years of relevant experience
• Bachelor’s Degree in System Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering Science or Engineering Management with at least 20 years of relevant experience
• TS/SCI security clearance with active full scope polygraph
• Experience producing and managing design artifacts throughout the Systems Engineering Life Cycle (SELC) to include Program Plan, Concept of Operations, Use Cases, System Requirements Specification, Interface Control Documents, Context Diagrams, Flow Diagrams, Test Plans, Sample Data, Operator Manuals
• Experience managing requirements and developing capabilities for systems supporting Radio Frequency (RF) Signals Intelligence.
• Experience leading agile development within a dynamic and flexible work environment with changing priorities and multiple requirements sources.
• Experience managing customer requirements and interfacing with end-users/operators and cross-functional teams.
• Experience leading operations-driven forward-deployed development teams, transitioning user needs/requests into prototypes
• Experience coordinating briefings, capability / prototype demonstrations, organizing and conducting meetings with and between development teams and customer.
• Experience transferring prototype applications from forward-deployed teams to enterprise solutions teams.
• Agile development
• Jira administrator
• Confluence administrator
• Git (or other code repository)
• Working knowledge of RF processing flows from antenna to datastores
• Working knowledge of defining ReST interfaces for web-based applications
• JMS
• Apache NiFi
Benefits:
• 401K
• Health Insurance
• Dental Insurance
• Basic Life Insurance
Salary Range:
• $183,300/Year
