Job Description

Nexagen Networks is seeking a Configuration Management Engineer who will lead the enterprise Configuration Management (CM) capability for a DoD satellite communications portfolio, designing and implementing a modern JIRA-based CMDB architecture across a complex System of Systems (SoS) environment.

This is a strategic build-and-architect role, focused on establishing sustainable CM processes, infrastructure, and governance-not maintaining existing systems.

In this role, you will design and implement a modern CM infrastructure, establish unified processes across distributed teams, and drive digital transformation from legacy systems to an enterprise CMDB architecture.

You will be required to architect solutions, build frameworks, and establish sustainable CM capabilities to position the organization for long-term success.

You will need technical expertise in Jira/Confluence CMDB design, strong stakeholder communication skills, and proven experience establishing CM processes in a complex System of Systems environment.

  • Design and implement Configuration Management Database (CMDB) solutions in Jira for multi-domain system-of-systems environments
  • Architect CI taxonomy and identification schemes supporting integrated configuration visibility
  • Establish baseline management frameworks and versioning strategies
  • Develop relationship mapping, enabling impact analysis and dependency tracking

Process Framework Design
  • Create systematic change control workflows integrating configuration item management
  • Design change classification schemes with governance and approval structures
  • Establish configuration audit frameworks supporting compliance and quality assurance
  • Implement lifecycle tracking for proactive technology refresh planning

Organizational Enablement
  • Train and mentor users across Integrated Product Teams on CM tools and methodologies
  • Develop comprehensive documentation supporting varied technical skill levels
  • Build stakeholder alignment and drive adoption through demonstrated value
  • Create a sustainable configuration management capability through knowledge transfer

Strategic Leadership
  • Advance organizational configuration management maturity through measurable improvements
  • Establish metrics and reporting frameworks providing executive visibility
  • Define accountability structures for configuration ownership and stewardship
  • Lead digital transformation from legacy CM approaches to modern integrated systems
Qualifications
  • 5-10 years of experience in a lead configuration management role that demonstrates proven CMDB implementation expertise
  • Minimum of two full CMDB implementations from requirements through operational deployment
  • Experience establishing configuration management processes and frameworks ( not just executing existing processes)
  • Background in DoD, aerospace, or complex systems environments
  • DoD Secret security clearance is a requirement
