The Modeling & Mapping Specialist leads enterprise-level modeling, mapping, and repository population efforts under the EASS contract. Reporting to the Program Lead and Lead Architect while directly supporting the Architecture & Data Management Branch (ADMB), this role focuses on building and customizing metamodels compatible with ServiceNow and the Common Service Data Model (CSDM), developing templates for architectural artifacts, and creating accurate as-is and to-be models across all EA domains. The specialist supports the migration from legacy tools to the new EA Repository and Modeling Tool (Ins-Pi/YouDesign), ensuring data integrity, visualization, and alignment with TSA’s mission to protect the nation’s transportation systems through efficient, data-driven architecture capabilities.


Responsibilities


+ Build and customize metamodels for the EA Repository tool, ensuring compatibility with existing EA data, ServiceNow platform, and Common Service Data Model (CSDM).

+ Create and maintain as-is and to-be models, enterprise views, and mappings across domains (performance/risk, business, data/information, applications/systems, infrastructure/technology, security).

+ Perform data migration, loading, and mapping into the EA Repository/Ins-Pi (YouDesign), including reconciliation across systems to support decision-making and gap identification.

+ Support Ins-Pi/YouDesign provisioning and management, including annual subscription handling, unlimited read-only licenses, 12 editor licenses, advisory services, initial setup, configuration, and up to 6 months of remote enablement.

+ Provide 3 days of consulting for repository setup/data load and 3 days of YouDesign training to ADMB staff and stakeholders.

+ Collaborate with domain architects and integrators to ensure models accurately represent TSA architectures and enable modernization activities (e.g., AI/IAAI infusion).

+ Assist in maturity enhancement via the Enterprise Architecture Management Maturity Framework (EAMMF) by ensuring modeled data supports reporting and compliance.

+ Address optional or emerging modeling requirements via contract modifications, negotiating costs as needed.


Qualifications


+ US Citizenship.

+ Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Information Systems, Data Management, or related field.

+ 7+ years of experience in enterprise modeling, data mapping, and repository management, preferably in federal or large-scale IT environments.

+ Strong hands-on experience with metamodel customization, data modeling tools, and migration processes.

+ Proficiency in Visio, ServiceNow/CSDM, and similar EA modeling/repositories.

+ Knowledge of FEAF v2.0, DoDAF frameworks, and data standards (e.g., metadata, lexicons).

+ Excellent technical, analytical, and problem-solving skills.


Preferred Skills:


+ Master’s degree.

+ Experience supporting TSA, DHS, or other federal agencies with EA modeling and tool transitions.

+ Familiarity with Ins-Pi/YouDesign or equivalent Enterprise Architecture & Transformation Management tools, including setup, configuration, and training.

+ Background in data mesh principles, AI/ML data modeling, or geospatial data integration.
