As a Common Operating Picture (COP) C5ISR Engineer you will provide technical services and project leadership for the successful integration and fielding of a common operating picture (COP) system and other C5ISR Systems, working as part of a DoD Vehicle Platform Project Management (PM) team.
Essential Job Functions:

  • Provide leadership, vision and direction to the development and fielding of a GCCS-J based Joint Common Operational Picture (JCOP) system.
  • Lead Integrated Product Team (IPT) for this effort.
  • Provide assistance to functional leads (logistics, fielding, test, training, cyber, etc) in the development and execution of efforts under their leadership which support the JCOP effort.
  • This position requires accepting and fulfilling a wide degree of implicit responsibility over the project, while understanding that ultimately the customer is the final decision maker.
  • Work with user community and user representatives to understand their needs and translate their needs into technical requirements.
  • Maintain effective communications, in both written and verbal format, with various team members and partners.
  • Assist program leads with coordinating with various functional areas within the program office (engineering, business management, test, logistics, configuration management, contracts, finance, cyber, and senior program leadership).
  • Interact and coordinate with other Program Management Organizations (PMOs), combat capabilities development commands (CCDCs), and other Government agencies on a regular basis.
  • Author program documents, including statements of work (SOWs), Memorandum of Agreements (MOAs) and similar documents.
  • Coordinate and oversee execution of various facets of project according to project documents, contracts, and agreements established with partner organizations, including other DoD organizations (CCDCs, test centers, etc.) and with contractors.
  • Participate in design reviews and reviews of documentation (such as engineering change proposals (ECPs)) to ensure that the designs of systems and their integration into a vehicle platform meet the intent and requirements of the effort.
  • Directly interface with the customer on a daily basis.
  • Other duties may be assigned to support client and contract deliverables.
  • Prepare and present briefings/presentations to program leadership.
  • Provide input to various systems used by the customer program management office, such as the risk register system.
  • Participate in regular team and program-related meetings.
  • Contribute input to program documents, including briefings, acquisition documentation, reports, statements of work, cost analyses, information support plans (ISPs), etc.
Required Skills:
  • Must be able to obtain and maintain a DOD Secret clearance.
  • Bachelor's degree in computer or electrical engineering with at least 8 years of experience relevant to this role.
  • Experience with DoD ground vehicle C5ISR systems and system architectures, including how the various systems interconnect with one another on a ground vehicle platform.
  • Knowledge of GCCS-J and other joint common operating picture and common tactical picture systems, such as Link 16, GCCS-M, CPCE, C2PC, TAK, Agile Client, Blue Force Tracker (BFT) and Joint Battle Command Platform (JBCP).
  • Must be able to develop a vision for how a project should be executed, make recommendations to the team and to the formal project leads, lead the team toward consensus on decisions, and ultimately submit to the customer's direction on how to proceed even if it differs from your own recommendation.

  • Experience as a Joint Interface Control Officer (JICO), 25U, 25B, S6, or similar.
  • The ideal candidate will understand how COP systems work, from the perspective of an end user and from the perspective of needing to make the system operational on a vehicle platform.
  • The ideal candidate will understand what is needed to get a system that is a client to GCCS-J (such as Joint Tactical COP Workstation-JTCW)) implemented onto the network, and how to establish end-to-end communications between the end user of the system and the computer servers that house the COP data, as well as the message formats used to communicate data across the network (JSON, VMF, etc).
  • Experience with joint interoperability certification requirements and testing.
  • Familiarity with CJCSI 3151.01D, CJCSI 3151.02, CJCSI 3155.01B.
