The individual must maintain sufficient technical depth to assess solution approaches, identify risks and dependencies, support technical decision-making, and ensure documentation and requirements are complete, accurate, and aligned with deliver and production readiness needs.

- Serve as the senior systems engineering and technical integration lead across a portfolio of COTS and GOTS applications supported by multiple delivery teams.
- Provide a consolidated technical and delivery perspective to the Government Product Lead and Freedom Program Management Office.
- Develop a strong understanding of the mission, applications, technologies, architectures, interfaces, dependencies, and delivery priorities across the portfolio.
- Coordinate cross-team technical activities, integration points, risks, dependencies, decisions, and sequencing requirements through resolution.
- Promote consistent engineering processes, technical standards, quality expectations, documentation practices, and delivery discipline across teams.
- Review significant requirements, technical approaches, designs, and implementation plans to identify risks, conflicts, gaps, and cross-team impacts.
- Facilitate technical discussions among Government leadership, Product Leads, delivery teams, mission stakeholders, and program leadership.
- Translate stakeholder needs into clear system-level requirements, technical options, and actionable implementation guidance.
- Support portfolio planning, backlog prioritization, milestone readiness, technical sequencing, and delivery risk management.
- Proactively identify and communicate technical issues, delivery risks, delays, and team alignment concerns, escalating significant matters to Program Management when appropriate.
- Maintain sufficient technical depth to assess solution approaches, identify risks and dependencies, support technical decision-making, facilitate technical discussions, and ensure documentation and requirements are aligned with deliver and production readiness needs.
- Use Atlassian products to support requirements management, workflow standardization, traceability, dependency tracking, reporting, and process improvement.
- Coordinate and quality review Weekly Activity Reports and other required technical or program deliverables.
- Help ensure teams remain aligned, milestones are achieved, cross-team issues are resolved, and Government leadership receives timely and reliable technical information.
Required Qualifications:
- Active TS/SCI clearance with Full Scope Polygraph.
- Bachelor’s degree in a technical discipline and twenty (20) years of Systems Engineering experience on programs of similar scope and complexity. Twenty-five (25) years of experience may be substituted for a bachelor’s degree.
- Experience applying systems engineering principles across the system lifecycle, including requirements, solution design, integration, testing, and operational support.
- Experience providing senior technical leadership across multiple applications or delivery teams while collaborating with Government stakeholders, Product Leads, technical leads, software development teams, and users to define and implement technical solutions.
- Ability to identify and manage technical risks, dependencies, integration impacts, and cross-team issues.
- Experience reviewing requirements, technical approaches, designs, and documentation for quality, completeness, and alignment.
- Ability to support delivery planning, milestone readiness, prioritization, and issue resolution.
- Sufficient technical depth to evaluate solution approaches, participate effectively in technical exchanges, challenge assumptions, identify risks, and support sound technical decision-making across development, integration, testing, deployment, and sustainment activities.
- Experience with Jira and Confluence for requirements, documentation, reporting, and cross-team coordination.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to brief technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Ability to work independently, exercise sound judgment, and quickly understand unfamiliar systems, technologies, and business processes.
