In this role, you will serve as a trusted technical advisor guiding the design, evaluation, and delivery of next‑generation tools that automate and optimize collection management. You will work directly with government leaders and development contractors to shape cloud‑forward, automation‑driven capabilities that enhance mission responsiveness and operational effectiveness across the full system lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

• Engineer advanced collection‑orchestration applications, performing system trades, interface analysis, and lifecycle engineering that directly influence mission outcomes.
• Lead technical and programmatic discussions with government and contractor teams, identifying issues early, driving resolution, and guiding engineering decisions that enable enterprise‑level capabilities.
• Apply systems analysis and design methodologies to assess technical debt, architectural runway, and efficiency trade‑offs for cloud‑based and modernized software architectures.
• Shape future system planning by developing requirements, evaluating design approaches, and providing oversight of development contractors to ensure alignment with mission needs.
• Develop high‑quality briefings, technical roadmaps, and acquisition documentation that support Program and Project Manager decision‑making and advance modernization strategies.
• Advise government managers responsible for end‑to‑end ground enterprise capabilities, ensuring mission tools, data flows, and integration efforts operate cohesively across the enterprise.

Qualifications

Required Education & Experience

• Bachelor's degree and 9+ years of relevant experience; Master's degree and 7+ years; PhD/JD and 4+ years. Relevant experience may be substituted in lieu of a degree.
• Active Top Secret/SCI with Polygraph.
• Strong foundation in Agile software development, cloud computing architectures, and modern engineering workflows.
• Demonstrated success working in fast‑paced, collaborative environments with government, SETA, FFRDC, and contractor stakeholders.
• Deep engineering knowledge of software architectures, ground systems, and intelligence collection tasking.
• Experience integrating software systems, including scripting, API integration, service orchestration, and containerization technologies.
• Ability to design and implement CI/CD pipelines that enhance system reliability, scalability, and deployment efficiency.
• Experience with GEOINT and SIGINT mission management systems (e.g., M2C2, GIMS, PGMM).
• Familiarity with Agile metrics, risk identification, performance tracking, and managing solution‑level Kanban/backlogs across multiple teams.
• Excellent oral and written communication skills for high‑visibility technical discussions, briefings, and coordination across diverse mission partners.
