The program, a new 5 year contract with an expected award date in late 2024, is a Mission Focused Team (MFT) construct where we will provide software services for the development, integration, testing, and lifecycle support of capabilities to the Government.

**What Youll Get to Do**

The Mid Systems Engineer (SE-2) analyzes users requirements, concept of operations documents, and high-level system architectures to develop system requirements specifications. Interacts with the Government regarding Systems Engineering technical considerations and for associated problems, issues or conflicts. Holds ultimate responsibility for the technical integrity of work performed and deliverables associated with the Systems Engineering area of responsibility. Communicates with other program personnel, government overseers, and senior executives.

**More About the Role**

The Mid Systems Engineer (SE-2) can expect to perform the following:

+ Analyze system requirements and leads design and development activities.

+ Guide users in formulating requirements, advises alternative approaches, and conducts feasibility studies.

+ Provide technical leadership for the integration of requirements, design, and technology.

+ Incorporate new plans, designs, and systems into ongoing operations.

+ Develop technical documentation.

+ Develop system architecture and system design documentation.

+ Guide system development and implementation planning through assessment or preparation of system engineering management plans and system integration and test plans.

**Youll Bring These Qualifications**

The Mid Systems Engineer (SE-2) shall possess the following capabilities:

+ Contribute to the development of sections of systems engineering documentation such as System Engineering Plans, Initial Capabilities Documents, Requirements specifications, and Interface Control Documents.

+ Manage system requirements and derived requirements to ensure the delivery of production systems that are compatible with the defined system architecture(s).

+ Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DoDAF), Service-oriented Architecture (SOA), etc.

+ Assist with the development of system requirements, functional requirements, and allocation of the same to individual hardware, software, facility, and personnel components.

+ Coordinate the resolution of action items from Configuration Control Board (CCB) meetings, design reviews, program reviews, and test reviews that require cross-discipline coordination.

+ Participate in an Integrated Product Team to design new capabilities based upon evaluation of all necessary development and operational considerations.

+ 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.

+ Allocate real-time process budgets and error budgets to systems and subsystem components.

+ 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.

+ Generate alternative system concepts, physical architectures, and design solutions.

+ 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.

+ 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.

+ Develop derived requirements for Information Assurance Services (Confidentiality, Integrity, Non repudiation, 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.).

+ Review and provide input to program and contract work breakdown structure (WBS), work packages and the integrated master plan (IMP).

+ Provide technical direction for the development, engineering, interfacing, integration, and testing of specific 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.

+ Implement comprehensive SOA solutions.

+ Implement operational view, technical standards view, and system and services view for architectures using applicable DoDAF standards.

+ Develop scenarios (threads) and an Operational Concept that describe the interactions between the system, user, and environment satisfying operational, support, maintenance, and disposal needs.

+ Review and/or approve system engineering documentation to ensure that processes and specifications meet system needs and are accurate, comprehensive, and complete.

+ Conduct quantitative analysis in non-functional system performance areas like Reliability, Maintainability, Vulnerability, Survivability, Producibility, etc.).

+ Establish and follow a formal procedure for coordinating system integration activities among multiple teams, ensuring complete coverage of all interfaces.

+ Capture all interface designs in a common interface control format, and store interface data in a commonly accessible repository.

+ Prepare time-line analysis diagrams illustrating the flow of time-dependent functions.

+ Establish processes to formally and proactively control and manage requirement changes, consider impacts prior to commitment to change, gain stakeholder buy-in, eliminate ambiguity, ensure traceability to source requirements, and track and settle open actions.

**Experience Requirements**

+ Must have an active TS/SCI with a Polygraph

+ Fourteen (14) years experience as a SE in programs and contracts of similar scope, type and complexity is required.

+ Bachelors degree in System Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering Science, Engineering Management, or related discipline from an accredited college or university is required.

+ Five (5) years of additional SE experience may be substituted for a bachelors degree.
